Football player Wes Welker is known for his toughness on the field, but the Denver Broncos wide receiver is reportedly quite the prankster.
According to a report by NFL Total Access, Welker once dressed up as Britney Spears for a high school pep rally and there's film to prove it.
In an interview on Tuesday with "NFL Total Access" Host, Dan Hellie, the host asked Welker about dressing up as the pop star at Heritage Hall High School in Oklahoma City, Okla.
"Gosh, I'd love to say false there, but I did," Welker said, according to United International Press. "I'd love to say false, but they have me on video. I've already bought them off, so you won't be seeing that anytime soon."
Welker laughed and admitted it was all a part of a team prank. Welker also admitted to performing Christina Aguilera's "Genie in a Bottle."
KWTV leaked the video of Welker in drag after Welker's former teacher talked about the football star channeling the pop singer when he was in high school.
"He was a superstar in the homecoming pep assembly lip sync contest in his senior year," said Welker's former teacher Betsy Horn, according to UPI. "He was a backup dancer. Probably the one that brought the house down with his portrayal of Britney Spears."
Welker was a football star at the school from 1996-2006 and earned a championship in 1998. Welker has played in 126 games over his 10-year NFL tenure, and has 777 receptions for 8,647 yards and 40 touchdowns. Welker is a five-time Pro Bowler and two-time AFC champion.
