Bellingham appeared as a guest on CBS SportsDid not reveal the most famous celebrity in his phoneScott went with Louis Theroux, while Carragher chose Sir Alex FergusonWHAT HAPPENED?
The Real Madrid star was asked by CBS Sports host Kate Abdo to pick the most famous person that he could Facetime. However, before he could answer, an excited Micah Richards jumped onto the scene and shouted "TT" – in reference to Arsenal legend Thierry Henry.
Scott, the former England women's international, was next in line after Richards. The Arsenal legend named famous British-American documentary maker Louis Theroux as her pick.
However, Richards and Jamie Carragher seemed to have no idea who he was and a surprised Scott said: "You don't know? The biggest documentary maker ever?"
Former Liverpool defender Carragher then startlingly named Manchester United's legendary old manager Sir Alex Ferguson as his pick. Richards was quick to ridicule him for the pick and quipped that the tactician would not even pick up his phone.
“He won’t pick up the phone to you,” he said, which drew immense laughter from Abdo and Bellingham.

Bellingham then joined the chat by saying of his colleagues' choices: "They are all a bit boring, to be honest!"
Carragher replied: "Who have you got? Who's in your phone? Who could you Facetime?"
Bellingham laughed away the question by quipping: "Can't tell you that Jamie." After a brief pause, the England international admitted that he would also go with Louis Theroux as his pick.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Theroux is a documentarian, journalist, broadcaster, and author who boasts of winning three British Academy Television Awards and a Royal Television Society Television Award. The 53-year-old is known for his works such as Louis Theroux's Weird Weekends (1998–2000) and When Louis Met… (2000–2002).
