Bangalore: Mark Zuckerberg, CEO Facebook, the tech celebrity, the Geek God, pulled out a witty gig on himself, when questioned about his style quotient in an interview with Matt Lauer on NBC’s Today. The program will be aired later; nevertheless you can giggle now. Read on the excerpts from the interview.

“I live a simple life,” said the millionaire, 28 year old CEO. “I mean, I wear the same thing every day, right? I mean, it’s literally, if you could see my closet at home” when asked about his love for grey tees, and wearing them every day.

When Matt Lauer asked “do you own around 12 grey tees?” the reply was flabbergasting, Mark said he in deed owns a priced collection of 20 identical grey tees, and said he has only one wardrobe “like men everywhere”.

The talk show went on, spilling beans out of can, everything from daily routine, the wedding to his college sweetheart Priscilla Chan last may, and the latest iPhone 5.

Mark said his wife, though she has her own wardrobe, still uses most of his space, which is empty except for his twenty identical tees.

About iPhone, he said, Apple’s Tim Cook sent him one, and the device is wonderful; a grate platform.

Guess what! Mark entered the list which has Steve Jobs and Albert Einstein, for wearing same dresses everyday.
