Exclusive: The former AFL footy showman is 45 but reckons his new face makes him look 15 years younger.
Flamboyant Warwick Capper is on the phone to a female friend, and discussing her plans for breast implants.
“Don’t get the round ones. Get the teardrop shape, they’re better,” the former AFL pin-up of the 1980s earnestly advises. “They look more natural. Then get the DD. The round ones look like balloons. They’re c–p.”
This may seem strange, but in the crazy world of Warwick Capper, nothing is off-limits. Since retiring from top-level footy 17 years ago, he’s taken the field as a stripper, stand-up comedian, porn star, self-styled hit singer, movie actor, model, meter maid and stop-go man on a road repair crew.
Last year, the former Sydney Swans and Brisbane Bears star, as famous for his short shorts as his prowess on the field, even took an unsuccessful punt at becoming Gold Coast mayor!
Warwick, whose new scheme involves hiring himself out as a special guest at bucks nights, reckons he’s well abreast of cosmetic surgery, having just gone under the knife himself.
“It’s not a facelift, just a bit of a freshen-up,” he says, tossing his familiar thick blond mane. “I’m 45, but I reckon I could pass for 31, don’t you? I like it. I think it looks pretty natural.
“People say I’ve got so many tickets on myself, the concert’s sold out. But the jealous ones are ugly and fat and don’t look after themselves. My body’s a temple. No more porn, I’m reborn! They say I’m vain, but I’m not really. I just like looking at myself!”
