LOOK: Virgin boss in a dress

If you ever wondered what Virgin Airlines boss Sir Richard Branson would look like as a woman, now you know.

The extroverted billionaire was a good sport on Saturday night as he made good on a bet placed with AirAsia chief Tony Fernandes two years ago.

The pair, who are good friends and both own Formula 1 racing teams, had wagered over whose team would finish ahead at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix - and the loser would be forced to dress as a stewardess on the other’s airline.
