Lena Dunham, Rita Wilson and Piers Morgan are among the stars who have expressed their distaste after disgraced cyclist Lance Armstrong finally confessed to using illegal performance enhancing drugs.
After years of vehemently denying doping allegations, Armstrong admitted using blood transfusions and illicit substances to enhance his performance for all seven of his Tour de France wins.
In the wake of his candid chat with talk show legend Oprah Winfrey, which aired in Australia on Friday at the same time as it did in the US, stars have voiced their shock on Twitter.
During the interview, Armstrong claimed he had to look up the definition of the word "cheat" to decide whether it applied to him or not, but Tom Hanks's actress wife Wilson cleared it up for him, writing, "CHEAT (noun) A person who behaves dishonestly in order to gain an advantage. Lance left out the 'behaves dishonestly' part, right?"
CNN newsman Piers Morgan also made his feelings known, tweeting, "What a snivelling, lying, cheating little wretch Lance Armstrong revealed himself to be tonight. I hope he now just disappears".
