Former President Barack Obama has opened up about some of the somewhat inappropriate attention he received from women while commander in chief and also what kept him on a straight and narrow path throughout it.

In an interview released Tuesday on The Pivot Podcast, Obama, 63, acknowledged his stardom but insisted that he was not tripping from his admirers, to the amusement of the podcasts co-hosts, former NFL players Channing Crowder, Ryan Clark and Fred Taylor.

When I got drafted in the NFL, I got a little cuter, Crowder, a former Miami Dolphins linebacker, said while opening up the discussion by sharing his own experience.
