The not important Loaded Magazine, a British magazine which awards comedians in their annual Lafta Awards, nominated the Beckhams for the funniest double act. Editor Martin Daubney said the Beckhams were put up for Funniest Double Act because their move to the US got “the British public laughing.” They’re just jealous because we have LA and good weather and good teeth and tan girls…they don’t.

In an article in the Daily Mail, a UK based paper, Alex Ferguson, the Manchester United Manager, claimed that Beckham will have no chance at making soccer a popular sport in the US. Ferguson said it was because of the United States’ sheer size and export of young american talent to Europe that Beckham could not give soccer the desired popularity. He also feels “Beckham will struggle to have the required impact on the field, the 31-year-old’s celebrity persona had overtaken his status as a sportsman following his marriage to Spice Girl Victoria. Only time will tell…Pele, Cruyff, and Beckenbauer attempted to change American soccer in the 70’s and they couldn’t. Soccer has changed since then (soccer stadiums, more respect etc.). It is the most popular youth sport right now. I think with the MLS’s solid business structure, broader interest from Beckham, and better overall American talent, the sport will keep on growing in popularity.

David was recently interviewed by The Observer, a UK based newspaper, about his arrival in America. The article does a brilliant job of revealing Beckham’s feelings towards American soccer and comparing his life in Spain and England to now. Read it here.

I went to the Galaxy game tonight and man it was pretty depressing. Gordon scored a solid header goal over RSL’s keeper in the first half. Then late in the 2nd half, Cobi hit the cross bar from a left footed bomb and RSL countered off that and scored. Then a couple minutes later they scored from a corner with some trash goal. There was a decent crowed but no enthusiasm. Without Becks it seems like nobody cares. Filed under: Uncategorized Comments: None |
Victoria Beckham (posh) is starting a clothing venture with her band mate Melanie Brown. Melanie Brown’s Dancing with the Stars costumes will be designed by Victoria Beckham. Mel told the Access Hollywood TV show “Victoria is going to come to one of the shows. She was excited. She said, ‘I have to design your costumes. We’ve got to sort that out!’” Source: Miz Showbiz Filed under: Celebrity Life and Victoria Beckham Comments: None |
