Sir Richard Branson has dressed up as a female flight attendant, complete with lipstick and a red skirt, after losing a bet to QPR owner Tony Fernandes.

The Virgin boss completed his humiliation by shaving his legs and wearing tights for his stint as an attendant on an AirAsia flight.
In 2010 Mr Fernandes, who is also the airline’s owner, had a wager with Sir Richard that his Formula One racing team Lotus would finish ahead of Branson’s Virgin team
This duly happened, which in turn forced the British billionaire to don the female attire.
It might have been Mr Branson that got the last laugh though after he spilled a tray of drinks over his adversary Mr Fernandes on the plane.
But in the end everyone seemed to have had a good time.
‘As Tony said we had a fun day, glad to have got his bet over and done with, and I’m looking forward to getting back into my own clothes,’ Mr Branson added.
He also revealed the stunt raised over $300,000 for the charity Starlight Foundation, which both Virgin Australia and Air Asia support.
