Poor Christiano Renaldo :(

It looks more like Max Headroom. LOL.

Remember when he had to pretend to look pleased at the unveiling of his statue in Madeira?

I guess I just don't understand pop art. If they made a statue of Caesar look like that back in Julius' day, they probably would have fed the sculpturist to coliseum animals.

To me, Renaldo comes across as really stuck on himself.  So I see that bust as just desserts.  I like this variation on the theme:

I wasn't aware of his statue outside his museum until now:

So what's the artist trying to say? I'm guessing that it's that Renaldo finds the game "stimulating".

Also, that he finds his fans' adoration stimulating:

My childhood hero was Willie Mays, and I saw him play many times at Candlestick Park. He has a statue just outside the ballpark where the Giants now play:

Seeing Ronaldo’s statue, I can’t EVER imagine doing something like that to Willie’s willy; that would be blasphemy 😱

One dodgy statue, and hundreds of millions in the bank. Yeah, I think I could deal with that.

I know Ronaldo is an important person for my country, a reference in proactiveness, persistence and professionalism (well sometimes...), but in all honesty he is still alive and naming the airport after him, which is normally done after someone dies in order to perpetuate their name, was one of the dumbest ideas coming out of our already dumb enough government.

I really like him, or what he represents, it's just this idea which i find really sad. And don't get me started on those statues, ouch.
