Michael Phelps wants a break to turn into a lazy ‘Turtle’!

Olympic medalist Michael Phelps wants to take a break from swimming to be like ‘Entourage’s’ lazy character ‘Turtle’.

The 23-year old champ athlete, who won eight gold medals at the Beijing Summer Olympics this year, confessed he loved being a slob like his favourite character.

“It’s cool, because it’s definitely my favorite show on television right now. I think my favorite character is probably Turtle, because he just sits around,” People magazine quoted him as saying about his forthcoming guest-spot on the hit HBO show.

“That’s what I love doing the most!” he added.

The seven world-record holder revealed that he has worked out only ‘three times’ since his spectacular display at the Olympics.

“I’m taking a break [until training for the 2012 games] in February,” he said.

The nonchalant ace-swimmer further admitted that he’s happy to be lazy and doing nothing.

He said: “I’m just enjoying being lazy these days. Sitting around, doing nothing, travelling here and there, not working out.” (ANI)
