PHOTOS; Cristiano Ronaldo Poses Awkwardly With New Lamborghini, Was Mocked Instantly

 Real Madrid’s superstar, Cristiano Ronaldo was mocked following release of his picture on Istagram this week posed awkwardly with his brand new Lamborghini car. Why would people mocked him? this is the question ruminationg some of his fan across the clobe. Could Ronaldo have opted for the LP 750-4 SuperVeloce Aventador, with that extra 50 horsepower? Sure, but no one’s going to call him out for that. What they will mock Ronaldo for is his inhuman posture while posing with his new bull. When the Portuguese forward uploaded this snap to Instagram earlier this week, his awkward stance got more attention than the car. There’s a fine line between looking cool and looking like you’re the forgotten member of N’SYNC and unfortunately for Ronaldo, he falls into the latter category here. It didn’t take long for the lovely denizens of the Internet to rally, showcase their best Photoshop skills and roast the hell out of Ronaldo. Enjoy.
