Presenter was the only kid at school with one
Friday, 12 June 2009
Alex Zane has revealed he was picked on in his youth for carrying a briefcase.
But the presenter was able to use it to deflect stones that were pelted at him at school.
‘I embrace the fact I was a geek,’ he tells a teen mag. ‘I was called Briefy Boy for five years, or “the briefcase kid”, “You’ve got a briefcase, we’re going to kick your head in”.
‘But that’s actually where the briefcase came into its own because, when rocks are thrown, you can use it as a shield.’
Alex, 30, says it had an influence on his relationships.
‘It did define who my friends were because the cool football jocks aren’t going to go, “Hey, we’re looking for someone with a briefcase to join our cool gang that girls fancy,"’ he adds.
