Cenamantics

by Nora Jay

John Cena, who plays a deadly assassin in The Fast and the Furious 9,
“apologised for calling Taiwan ‘a country’ in an interview he gave to a Taiwanese broadcaster early
this month, saying that it was not appropriate.
‘I made a mistake, I must say right now. It’s so so so so so so important, I love and respect Chinese
people,’ Cena said to his 600,000 fans on his Chinese Weibo account. ‘I’m very sorry for my mistakes.
Sorry. Sorry. I’m really sorry. You have to understand that I love and respect China and Chinese people.’”

His pectorals shine;
With so many muscles,
There’s no room for spine.
