Superstar Duff not backing down from controversial statements
Superstar Duff, never at a loss for words, got more than he bargained for when he seemed to insult a female sportswriter by his locker. "Lady, that is a dumb question!" he exclaimed. That probably would have been the end of it, if it indeed ended there. But Duff continued, "Who even let you in here? Don't you know this is a locker room? Not a kitchen. If you want to talk to me from now on, join the ladies in the champagne room, okay?"
No sooner had he uttered the seemingly sexist words than social media sent them across the Internet. Sports talk shows laughed, daytime talk-shows seethed and the *TEAM* GM had to hold a hasty press conference to sooth ruffled feathers. Even the First Lady criticized Duff and her famous husband quickly agreed at his press conference. Duff though, refuses to back down.
