If you’re the most awkward looking teenager, you need to make up for it later on in life. I guess Beckham felt like he had to do it double time, but I’m not complaining.  He was 15 in this picture.

Beckham’s gone even more matchy-matchy with his wife now that he has super-bleached his hair. He’s still hot, but to his defense, he did it for a fashion shoot and not just to look cool. Whew.

The Washington Post recently asked whether or not the US sports scene needs a good style icon like David Beckham, and after the interviewing American athletes, the consensus is that nobody really cares. Maybe because they have more important issues to worry about. . . like anything else? (The ” U.S. Sport Fashion Void” sounds pretty uninteresting to me, too.) Anyway, the athletes are totally right. I wouldn’t be threatened by a man in a hat like that either. Beckham’s wearing a tea cozy!

People reports that David Beckham injured his knee Sunday night in a soccer match in Madrid. Tests are supposed to be done on Monday to see exactly what he did, but I’m left wondering if the contract has some sort of bail-out for the Galaxy if he’s unable to play. I sure hope Posh hasn’t already spent the money. Chickens and hatching and all that.

Then again, she’s supposedly inked some deal for a reality series about their move to L.A. Imagine if he just sits on the couch eating and watching TV all day. THAT would be interesting television.

The Sun reports that David Beckham and his wife applied for work visas for their security staff and were promptly denied. Apparently, their feeling was that they like the folks they have and there aren’t enough American bodyguards capable of dealing with their security needs, but the INS told them to hire some Americans, seeing as they are in America and all. 

When in Rome, folks.

OMG, David Beckham and Starvation Spice haven’t even MOVED here and I’m already officially getting sick of them! The Sun reports that Fox has offered them their own reality show, a la The Osbournes, to focus on adjusting to life across the pond with, you know, the kids you rarely see, Vicky’s boobs, and barbecues with TomKat.

I’m sure that the Beckhams are waiting for more sage advice from Tom Cruise before they make their decision about the show, but the ONLY possible reason I’d even consider watching is it to have them do an unedited hour after Vicky eats.

Page Six reports that David Beckham is already halfway converted to Scientology; after all, for most of Hollywood, including wife Katie Holmes, anyone who’s anyone in Scientology knows you can’t take a dump without consulting first with Tom Cruise. Beckham didn’t sign the contract with the L.A. Galaxy until he’d consulted with Cruise, claiming Cruise “is a very wise man and a very good friend of mine.”

Becks, the contract is paying you $1 million a WEEK for five years. ANYONE would have told you to sign it, you big git!
