WATCH: Rod Stewart’s theatrical behaviour spiced up the Scottish Cup fifth round draw

Carl Kinsella

After many decades in show business, it’s fair to expect that Rod Stewart might add a bit of flair to a simple Scottish Cup fifth round draw.

It’s unlikely, however, that anyone expected this much spice from the septuagenarian rock ‘n roller.

The Do Ya Think I’m Sexy singer made huge lunges for the pot any time he had to pull out a ball, and accompanied each announcement with various surprised noises.

Stewart didn’t appear to quite be in the moment, ignoring the hand of the host when he reached out for a shake at the end of the draw. Luckily it all appeared to be taken in good fun, with the Sky Sports presenter telling Rod that he has a future as a bingo caller.

Rod’s own beloved Glasgow Celtic drew Inverness Caledonian Thistle in the fifth round of the Scottish Cup.
