Last night famed cyclist Lance Armstrong gave a revealing interview with Oprah Winfrey where he admitted to using performance enhancing drugs during his career. The interview has been in the news all week and confirmed what most people already suspected.
Famous for getting guests to admit their deepest secrets, Oprah questioned Armstrong about the allegations he has fought for years about weather or not he has been using drugs to win races.
Armstrong came clean and held nothing back except the names of any accomplices, despite Oprah’s pressings. He confessed his wrong doings openly and matter-of-factually without bothering with tears or pained expressions.
When asked if he felt he did anything wrong, Armstrong surprisingly answered that he didn’t think he was cheating because cheating implies gaining an advantage while Armstrong was only aiming for common ground.
Armstrong has now has a lifetime ban from cycling and has been stripped of many of his awards and medals. His reputation has taken a massive hit and the next few years will be grim for this once famed athlete.
The second part of the interview airs tonight at 9 p.m. on OWN.
