Steven Bartlett has once again found himself in hot water after making a bizarre comment about flying his barber from the UK to the US for a simple haircut.
The entrepreneur and podcast host, known for his candid opinions on business, productivity, and self-growth, has faced his fair share of criticism over the past year.
His latest controversy stems from an interview with billionaire investor Jeremy Grantham, in which he shared a casual anecdote about his barber, Damon, flying to the US to give him a haircut.
The comment sparked outrage from fans, who took to social media to express their dismay, with many calling out Bartlett's apparent disconnect from reality.
One user wrote: "Great interview, but the 'my barber flew out to give me a haircut' line is the douchiest thing I've ever heard."
Another user added: "My barber flew here to cut my hair. Brother, that makes you part of the problem."
This is not the first time Bartlett has faced backlash for his comments. Just weeks ago, his remarks about wine ruining his week were labelled "nonsense" and "embarrassing" by fans and celebrities alike.
Urging Bartlett not to focus so intensely on his health data, Vogue Williams noted on her podcast: "He said he had three glasses of wine, and it ruined his life because it made him not optimal for three days."
Williams jokingly added: "I think you're at your funniest when you're hungover. I also think you're at your best two drinks in. That's when a human is at its best."
