Michael added, "I think guys were jealous. Most of them were trying to act like they didn’t see it. I know they saw it."

"But they couldn’t hate because the abs were popping, the biceps were rippling. But I remember being so nervous," he said. "I take off the robe, and I felt so exposed, and I’m generally a pretty quiet and shy person."

He said ... "I go and I did it, and they're like, 'You want to do it again?' I felt good. I was like, 'Man, this stripping ain't bad.'"

Bill told the Wall Street Journal that any narrative claiming Jordon is trying to gain influence over the UNC football team is absurd.

He said ... "The way the story was picked up was a long way from that. Like, 'She’s trying to be the general manager of the team,' and it's so ridiculous."

The backlash over Macklemore being dropped from Ed Sheeran's tour continues … with a prominent Pro-Palestine group in Philly announcing a protest outside his show this weekend ... TMZ has learned.

The group, Philly Palestine Coalition, and another organization named Shut Down D&Z are urging people to come show support for their cause on September 19 outside the Lincoln Financial Center.

Ed is getting ready to perform at Philadelphia's Lincoln Financial Field Saturday night ... the first show since Macklemore was sent packing.

While the Eagles don't own the stadium, the team leases the arena from Philly. Kraft owns Gillette Stadium. Tepper's stadium received public funding. Blank operates Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, which is owned by the state of Georgia.

NFL owners were allegedly assured Macklemore wouldn't mention Palestine during the second night of Ed Sheeran's tour stop at MetLife Stadium ... but he did anyway, according to a new report.

The report does not identify who made that promise to the owners. Macklemore later blamed New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft for drawing a line in the sand and getting him removed from the tour.
