Cam Newton has a matter-of-fact reason for why he would never slide into Brittany Renner’s direct messages.

Renner, a famous Instagram model, recorded an interview with the charismatic Panthers quarterback. In a now-viral teaser clip, Newton says he wouldn’t have sex with Renner because he doesn’t want his dirty laundry aired out.

“I’m Cam Newton, right?,” he said. “And I ain’t gonna lie. I’m not about to hit no DMs with no Brittany talking about ‘hey yo, what’s good? What’s popping? You in Atlanta? I see you in Atlanta. Boom. Slide through.’

“Why not?” Renner asked.

“Because I don’t want to end up in your book,” Newton answered.

Renner, 29, wrote a tell-all book, “Judge This Cover,” about her sexual escapades. One of the men she wrote about was former 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick. In addition, Renner has a child with Charlotte Hornets forward P.J. Washington.

Last year, she went back to her alma mater, Jackson State, and gave life and relationship advice to Deion Sanders’ football team.

“It’s a give-and-take but you have to be aware of what you’re signing up for,” Renner said to the college athletes. “You’re trying to make it to the NFL. You do understand there’s a lot that comes with that, right? To be able to decipher who really loves you for you, I think that’s the billion dollar question we’re all wanting to know.

“Nobody is here for nothing. It’s just about figuring out who can be here in times of adversity.”
