When the interviewer asked Bolt if Rihanna contacted the sprinter, he replied, “No, she’s given me no love bro, no love zero love.”
Next, the athlete joked, “I think she’s getting all the love with Work, Work, Work man.”
Referring to the time when people spotted Rihanna with Leonardo DiCaprio at Coachella, the interviewer asked if Bolt viewed the actor as an opponent. To this, Bolt replied, “He’s no competition for me. I’m tall, I’m handsome I’m dark, I’m the greatest.”
During the interview, he also took a dig at his team’s inability to help him out. He said, “My team is letting me down.” However, the athlete was not serious when he said that. The sprinter only meant it as a friendly jibe.
