Antonio Brown reveals bizarre reason he posted Gisele pics amid feud with Tom Brady

No longer a football player, Antonio Brown thinks of himself as more of an entertainer these days.

And it's not just a recent transition. The 36-year-old NFL outcast claims he was an entertainer dating back to 2022, when he infamously posted a suggestive photograph of himself hugging Gisele Bundchen – the wife of his former Tampa Bay Buccaneers teammate, Tom Brady. The caption at the time read: 'Put that s*** on.'

'I was just making entertainment,' Brown told rapper and podcaster Yung Miami. 'At the end of the day, I'm an entertainer… So I was just being an entertainer.'

But speaking on the podcast, Caresha Please, Brown couldn't quite keep his story straight. He tried to frame the incident as innocent joke, but still admitted to harboring ill-will towards Brady for not having 'my back.' Brown even made more suggestive remarks about Bundchen, who is now Brady's ex-wife.

'So I was just making light of people not doing me right, just getting back at them,' Brown said, clearly hinting at Brady before adding a childish reference to Bundchen. 'I don't kiss and tell.'

The incident was a relatively minor scandal for Brown, who was jettisoned from Pittsburgh, Oakland and New England before Brady tossed him a lifeline with the Buccaneers in 2020. Brady and Bundchen actually let Brown live with them and their children as the South Florida native looked for a new pad in the Tampa area.

That season would prove successful for Brown, who would win his first and only Super Bowl, leading to aforementioned on-field hug he shared with Bundchen in the aftermath of the championship victory.

But time with the Bucs came to an abrupt end in January of 2022 when he made a shirtless mid-game exit at MetLife Stadium after arguing with coaches on the sideline. He would never play in the NFL again.

'For sure that was one of the iconic moments,' Brown told Yung Miami. 'I think that exemplify believing in yourself and being able to leave on your own… I always want to leave the game the way I came in it.'

Since then, Brown has blamed Brady for his departure in Tampa and continues to claim Brady prevented him from getting the contract he sought. Speaking with Yung Miami, he framed his tenure with the Bucs as a favor to Brady, whom he claims didn't 'follow through.'

'I felt like, first off, because you know I helped him win the Super Bowl,' he said. 'You got to know I got value in terms of what I do.

Brown's animosity towards Brady was crystalized when Yung Miami admitted to being a fan of the former New England Patriots quarterback.

'Oh you love him?' Brown asked Yung Miami. 'How much you love him? You love white boys?'

Brown's erratic behavior was only getting started.

Aside from making crude references to his genitals, he made the bizarre claim that 'n*****'s wife be on me.'

He was then asked about the end of his NFL career, which he framed as his own decision. Brown made no mention of his desire to return to the league, although he wrote on X Thursday that he'd be willing to play for the Steelers 'for free' over the remainder of the season.

But with Yung Miami, Brown portrayed himself as being done with football, which he saw as a blessing.

'For me to be able to leave on my own, too, has helped me transition to the position I'm in now.'

And exactly what is that position?

Brown may describe himself as an entertainer in one breath, but in his next, he's admitting to being a part of the idle rich despite filing for bankruptcy earlier this year.

'I'm just enjoying the freedom that comes with having money,' Brown said. 'I just do what I love. Making a little music.'

And that's showbiz.
