Tsitsipas likes himself better naked

Stefanos Tsitsipas' fame has skyrocketed in the past year, and so has his Instagram fame. The Greek sensation posted an almost-naked selfie with an interesting rant declaring his skepticism towards clothes: "I like me better naked...clothes are adjectives, they are indicators."

While Tsitsipas is known for being very philosophical, it turns out he was referencing Padma Lakshmi, a Top Chef host **who said the exact same quote in 2009. The 20-year-old is no stranger to borrowing deep quotes for his Instagram captions. Here's one from Canadian photojournalist Ted Grant:

In a slightly more normal viral hit, Tsitsipas appeared in an Uber Eats ad, ordering food while commentating on the Australian Open final.

Uber Eats ads also featured Rafael Nadal, Caroline Wozniacki and Nick Kyrgios. In 2019, Tsitsipas will only have a more people listening to him and watching his every move after a breakthrough Australian Open saw him reach the semifinals.
