Amanda Beard is backtracking faster than she can swim after calling the idea of dating fellow Olympian Michael Phelps “nasty.”
In an interview with Johnjay and Rich in the Morning on Tuesday, Beard vehemently denied ever kissing Phelps, adding that she had “really good taste” and that she typically goes for “more decent looking guys.”
But, according to Beard, her statements were all in good fun.
“Everyone who knows me knows I can be a jokester, but I guess I took it too far, “ Beard explained to People magazine. “I never meant to say anything rude about Michael. I am 100-percent sorry for what I said. I take full responsibility for it.”
Beard went on to say she is “very grateful that Michael swims for the U.S.” and that “Michael is like [her] little brother.”
“He jokes around me all the time and it’s all good-natured,” she added. “But obviously people who don’t know me can take it the wrong way.”
