From Virgin king to lady in red. Sir Richard Branson dragged himself into a female flight attendant’s costume this weekend, after losing a bet with Air Asia chief executive Tony Fernandes.
Only last week Virgin’s female staff argued that Branson was cutting corners by asking them to wear flimsy, low-cut blouses of cheap see-through material. Writing on his blog, Branson revealed that as a Virgin “girl” he had “got a lift (and a kiss) from my new boss Tony”. What larks.
