He explained that he turned down the offers because he’s afraid of politics due to its controversial nature.
He said: “I got a call, they wanted me for Sunday, and they offered me three million dollars for this past Sunday.
“I didn’t even go far back, I didn’t even talk to them about that kind of stuff. I’m afraid of politics. I do not like politics.
“It is because when you do get involved in it, no matter how you feel, someone passionately disagrees with you.”
