Lewis Hamilton has dismissed his playboy tag after recently splitting with pop-star girlfriend Nicole Scherzinger, and added that a playboy was someone who spent most of his time being a jackass.
According to the Mirror, Hamilton said that he hardly took a drink or go to a party and just because he had a plane, it did not mean he was a playboy.
