Chris Bumstead Compares Himself to $2 Billion Worth Franchise’s Popular Character: “I Look Like Quagmire”

Bodybuilding icon Chris Bumstead and his fiancée Courtney King recently delighted fans by sharing a glimpse of their baby. In a heartwarming Instagram post featuring their newborn baby, CBum humorously compared himself to the iconic “Family Guy” character, Glenn Quagmire, which drew laughter and admiration from his followers.

The five-time Mr. Olympia is not only known for his massive muscles and chiseled physique but also for his wit and charm. On 22nd April, the couple welcomed their first child Bradley Shay Bumstead. And the couple gave fans a sneak peek into their new journey as parents, sharing adorable snapshots on Instagram.

Courtney took to Instagram to share the heartwarming moment, captioning it, “10 days of Miss Bradley Shay.” In the carousel of baby pictures, there’s one particular photo, where CBum was seen carrying bags in what appeared to be a hospital room. He presumably getting ready to head home with their newborn.

However, what caught everyone’s attention wasn’t just the cute baby but Bumsteads’ humorous comparison of himself to a beloved animated character. “Why do I look like Quagmire in that last slide…” he quipped, drawing parallels between himself and the quirky character known for his distinctive looks and catchphrase, “Giggity giggity goo!”

In the comments section, the 29-year-old dad added a touch of humor by comparing his appearance in the last slide to Glenn Quagmire from the hit TV show “Family Guy.” The show was first premiered in 1999. Despite being the leading man in the classic physique division, CBum never shies away when it comes to cartoon or animated characters. Did you know he suggested his daughter’s middle name after a Pokémon?

Chris Bumstead’s suggestion of ‘Blastoise’ as the middle name

Yes, you heard it right! In late March, during a Q&A session alongside his fiancée, Cbum excitedly talked about their upcoming baby girl’s name. He hinted it starts with a ‘B’ and jokingly suggested naming her after the Pokémon Blastoise. Explaining his idea, he said it would be funny to have all ‘B’s in her name.

He even explained Blastoise’s connection to Pokémon. Though he suggested ‘Blastoise’ as a middle name, Courtney vetoed it, insisting on a non-Pokémon name. They kept the conversation light and fun, leaving fans curious about the actual name they’ll choose for their daughter. While sharing the news with fans that they were blessed with a baby girl, they revealed the name of their first child: Bradley Shay Bumstead. Thankfully, Courtney disapproved of using a Pokémon character’s name as the middle name.

Moving on, the comparison sparked a wave of amusement among fans, who couldn’t help but chuckle at Chris Bumstead’s playful observation. Despite being a world-renowned bodybuilder, he showed his down-to-earth side by embracing the lighthearted moment and sharing it with his followers.
