Victoria and David Beckham are reminding us that they are the sexiest couple in Hollywood right now. The two lovebirds heat things up in the commercial for their latest his and hers fragrance, Signature. The commercial is edgy and sexy, but not over the top.
As for the launch for Signature, Victoria decided to unveil the new perfume in Manchester, where she met her famous soccer player husband. It was originally to be launched in London, but Posh decided against it. She said,
“It was meant to be in London but I said no, I said please can I go to Manchester instead? I love Manchester, it’s got a really good feel to it. So I thought why not - I usually spend a lot of time in London. I’m really excited about coming back because, of course, it’s where I met David.”
Victoria looked amazing for the launch of Signature, held at Harvey Nichols department store. The Spice Girl was quite posh, wearing a figure-hugging white dress and silver heels.
David Beckham is not one to shy away from a promotional opportunity. Already a veteran of Armani ads and Adidas endorsements, in addition to others for clothing companies, soft drinks and sunglasses, he is now signing autographes for Sharpie pens.
The Sharpie ad features David Beckham signing a variety of objects in a coffee shop, at a gas station, and on the street, and everyone hands him a Sharpie to do the signing. After being impressed with the marker pens, Beckham snags one of his own. The Sharpie contract is a two-year deal. Of the partnership, David says,
“I have always enjoyed signing autographs for people, especially since I used to love getting my heroes’ signatures when I was younger. I love to use Sharpie markers, so it’s a natural choice for me to partner with them.”
The Sharpie commercial releases just days after Beckham’s latest Armani ads. Check out photos of the hot soccer star in his undies here.

Victoria and David Beckham are reportedly looking to adopt a little girl from Africa. The decision comes after David visited Sierra Leone and was emotionally moved by the orphaned children.
David is a Goodwill Ambassador for UNICEF and spent four days in Sierra Leone where he witnessed a birth and helped give a newborn immunizations.
“I was close to tears. I had to step back and take a deep breath. I’m a very emotional person and I’m even more emotional now I’m a parent. But what stopped me crying was knowing that what these kids are going through is far worse than my feelings.”
David and Victoria currently have three boys Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz and have often talked about having more children. See the interview below where the Beckhams were interviewed by Barbara Walters as a part of her ‘Most Fascinating People of 2007.’ In it, they speak of having more children. Guess how many David wants…
David Beckham knows he’s a “gay icon”, and he’s loving it. After discussing Victoria Beckham’s influence on the way he dresses, David says,
“I’m very honoured to have the tag of gay icon. Maybe it’s things like (the fact) I like to look after myself, I like to look smart and presentable most of the time.”
David has certainly come a long way since his early days as Mr. Posh. Check out this sarong he once rocked:
At least it was Jean-Paul Gaultier I guess. Victoria has even said that David likes to wear her underwear.
The Beckhams are just a total enigma to me. I can watch 30 Barbara Walters’ specials and still have no idea what goes on behind their doors. It could be as normal as a suburban family dinner to David running around in leopard print thongs kicking soccer balls at chandeliers - it’s really anyone’s guess.

Victoria and David Beckham hit up the Spearmint Rhino strip club in Vegas on Monday and spent three hours in a private room where dances by topless women go for $400 an hour. Hollywood stars are no strangers to the Spearmint Rhino where champagne and strawberries are served with the X-rated dancing.
It seems Victoria is taking full advantage of being back on tour and David has been the picture perfect husband right by her side. She is self-admittedly living the rock star life style with drinking and partying all night and sleeping all day.
“We are having the time of our lives. It hasn’t been like this for years — since before our first son Brooklyn was born. We’ve had two nights out on the trot which have been really messy and we are loving it. We are behaving like rock stars — late-night drinking on tour.”
Maybe this is the reason for their concert starting an hour late…
David Beckham is leaving little to the imagination in this ad for Giorgio Armani. Either the shadows are being kind to David, or he should get a yellow card for having such great “abs.” The deal with Armani is worth $40 million for David to become the new global ambassador. Armani says he chose David for the ad because Beckham represented
“a notion of modern masculinity: as a sports hero, husband and father.”
As for Beckham, he initially met Armani after he designed the World Cup soccer suit. Beckham says he’s been a fan for a long time and compliments Armani as being a designer “on the top of his game for more than 30 years.”
All the lucky people of New York, Los Angeles, London, Milan, Rome, Paris and Tokyo will get to see billboards of David in all his wonder. Or you can print out this picture, blow it up, and hang it above your bed.
Okay, so the photo above is making its rounds on the internet as the “leaked photo” of David Beckham’s recent photoshoot for Attitude Magazine. What do you think? Major photoshop going on? This guy looks so hairy, and I agree with our friends over at Gabby Babble, I don’t believe that David has this much hair on his legs. Of course, I could be wrong.
After posing for photos for Attitude (which is an English gay mag), he told Sports Illustrated that:
“Being a gay icon is a great honor for me. I’m quite sure of my feminine side, and I’ve not got a problem with that at all. These days it’s the norm, and it should be.”
Did you know that Becks has a penchant for wearing Victoria’s nail polish and underwear? And he is quite emotional too, inheriting that trait from his Mom, whom he has described as “a lot softer, more affectionate”.
Okay, if that’s not David Beckham, no biggie. It’s just nice to look at a fine piece of a**, isn’t it? And I’ll be on the lookout for the “real” photos of David from Attitude Magazine, so check back often!
