Victoria Beckham Wants More Earthquake Lessons

Josh loposer — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 11:30:00 GMT

Moving to Los Angeles, Posh had a somewhat hazy understanding that the family would get caught in minor tremors every so often -- but after the earthquake last month that measured a 4.7 on the Richter scale, the danger seems a lot more clear and present.

That's why Posh has apparently booked another round of classes about earthquake preparedness.

“Victoria and the boys had a lesson in a simulator when they first moved to Los Angeles, but she didn’t realise the tremors would be so regular. She’s now asked David to come back from Italy and take another class with her.”

The Beckham family lives on top of the very active 47-mile long Newport-Inglewood Fault. After the scare last month, Posh wants to do everything she can to protect her three boys (Brooklyn, 10, Romeo, 6, and Cruz, 4) including moving the family out of LA.

Posh: LA Is Home Sweet Home

Josh loposer — Tue, 12 May 2009 18:00:00 GMT

Despite reports that the Beckhams we're ready to pack up their junk and blow this popsicle stand, Victoria says they're staying Stateside because LA is "home."

Over the last few weeks, rumor had the Beckham clan making tracks to Milan, where they'd supposedly placed a bid on a historic Venetian palace. But according to Victoria, it's all a pack of lies.

“There’s no truth to that whatsoever. So many people have been coming up to me saying, ‘I hear you’re moving…’ but we’re not - we’re staying in LA. It has been great for David being in Milan, and we’ve all enjoyed spending time there - I’m going over there in a couple of days to see him. He’s coming back to the States in June, though - he has his first game in New York on the 16th of July, which he is very excited about.”

“You know, LA is our home and the boys are happy. We’re not looking for a house in Milan - I don’t know where that story came from. The last thing I want is another house!”

It's nice that the Posh and Becks are taking the boys' (Brooklyn, 10, Romeo, 6, and Cruz,4) feelings into consideration. My family moved around a lot when I was growing up, and though it was good for me, I hated it.

Rumors about the Beckhams leaving the US have been circulating pretty mcuh since they first arrived. Still, with a jet-setting couple like Posh and Becks, you have to assume that one of these days the rumors will be true.

Wear It Like Beckham: Becks Is A Fashion Designer

Josh loposer — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 11:30:00 GMT

Somewhere between playing for two pro soccer clubs on two continents and keeping up with his three boys (Brooklyn, 10, Romeo, 6, and Cruz, 4) how does David Beckham managed to find time to develop and craft his design skillz?

Apparently, Adidas suggested that David team up with James Bond (not that James Bond), the guy who owns the Undefeated sneaker freak boutiques, to come up with a fall/winter lineup for Adidas.

The collection will be made up of American sportswear, with a healthy dose of leather, cashmere, and silk. The shoes -- what I'm most interested in -- will be throw backs to traditional Adidas styles.

Surprisingly, David will not be appearing in any of the advertising for the line -- or so they say. Does that mean he's actually designing some of it? I kind of imagined him just reviewing designs on his Blackberry and replying "looks good."

Does Adidas just wants his name to be connected with the line to help sales? Or do they really want his design input?

Maybe Becks will wear the line out in public or something. Weird.

David Beckham's Victoria Tattoo Is Misspelled

Josh loposer — Wed, 22 Apr 2009 22:30:00 GMT

Ha ha! Becks can't read ancient Sanskrit! OK, neither can I ... but I'm not the one with his wife's misspelled name tattooed on my left arm.

That's right, somewhere down the line, the proper Sanskrit spelling of Victoria's name got lost in translation -- or actually, an "h" got added. According to scholars, Becks' ode to the wifey actually reads "Vihctoria."

There's no telling what other typos Becks is sporting. Maybe he should stick to English whenever he decides to immortalize the names of his boys -- Brooklyn, 10, Romeo, 6, and Cruz, 4 -- on his body somewhere.

America’s leading Hindu scholars are urging top tattoo artists to read up on their Sanskrit after noticing inked text on Rihanna and David Beckham’s skin is misspelled.

According to the experts, Beckham’s tattoo tribute to his wife Victoria is incorrect - as is one of Rihanna’s new spiritual etchings. Acclaimed Hindu statesman Raman Zed says, “We are all for the celebrity interest in Hinduism and our sacred texts, but celebrity tattoo artists worldwide really should undertake some basic training in ancient Sanskrit language and culture to get this right.”

Zed insists it must be embarrassing for the stars when they realize permanent marks on their skin are incorrect. He adds, “Rihanna has two Sanskrit prayer tattoos - her latest is misspelled. And David Beckham has his wife Victoria’s name in Devnagri script, which is commonly used to write Sanskrit, on his arm - its wrong! The tattoo on his left forearm misspells Victoria with an added ‘h’ - as in ‘Vihctoria’.”

But fortunately for stars like Jessica Alba, Tommy Lee and The X Files star Gillian Anderson, their prayer tattoos are all correct. Zed tells WENN, “I won’t tell you what they all mean - because I’m sure they’re very special to the individuals. We are delighted that so many celebrities choose to pay tribute to Hinduism with tattoos. We only ask that the tattoo artists take the trouble to get it right.”

This crap happens all the time with tattoos in foreign languages, that's why it's usually a good idea to avoid them. It's kinda like playing the telephone game, but permanently... with ink. And with your epidermis.

Milan Rejects The Beckhams' Offer To Buy Historic Castle

Josh loposer — Mon, 13 Apr 2009 19:00:00 GMT

The Beckhams' hopes of finding suitable housing in Milan have been dashed, thanks to Milan's historically-minded city council. What a bunch of jerks!

Only the Beckhams could find their way into a predicament like this! According to reports the Beckhams want to stake their claim on a piece of Milan's most valuable real estate, which just so happens to be part of its rich history: the Sforzesco Castle. The word is that they've made an offer to the city council and been rejected.

Apparently, the couple planned to convert the popular tourist destination into a family home for Brooklyn, Romeo, and Cruz when they come to visit dad when he plays for Milan as part of his current timeshare contract with the LA Galaxy.

While it would be ridiculously cool to grow up in a Renaissance-era castle, Milan's city council apparently though it would be a little out of line for the couple to makeover the centuries old fortress. Not to mention, Posh and Becks deciding to buy one of Milan's top tourist sites comes off as a little bit egotistical. Does it not?

Guess they'll just have to keep roughing it in luxury hotels and such.

Beckham Boys Practice Their Soccer Choke Holds

Josh loposer — Tue, 07 Apr 2009 16:30:00 GMT

The Beckham boys headed out to the park to play a friendly game of soccer in Milan Monday, when things apparently got a little heated. Looks like daddy's youngest soccer player Cruz is getting the yellow card.

As David and Victoria were out enjoying the sights and sounds of Milan, their boys had a field day with their bodyguards. After the two youngest -- 6-year-old Romeo and 4-year-old Cruz - got aggressive, their bodyguards almost had to protect them from each other. OK, maybe it was just a sucker move. Personally, I think Romeo might have been playing up the choke move for the refs.

The oldest son, Brooklyn, apparently already has some very impressive soccer skills. At all of 10 years old, he could probably whoop my ass up and down the field.

Armani Shows David Beckham's Huge, Bulging Personality

sweatpantsmom — Thu, 19 Jun 2008 12:35:00 GMT

Here's a sneak peek at David Beckham's new Armani campaign, where he shows off his massive personality. David's enormous personality is apparent in this ad, which is a gigantic, hanging mural facing Macy's in San Francisco.

Can you imagine how humongous and overpowering his personality must be in a poster two-stories high? I'll bet if you look closely you could even make out the veins in his personality. Why, if I were driving by such a mural I might crash my car while being distracted by that inviting, sizable personality.

Beckham was shot on the beaches of Malibu by renowned fashion photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott. They must be talented, as they expertly highlighted and emphasized the soccer star's dominating asset - his throbbing personality.

Obviously David's got a big personality and I'm sure he knows how to use it.

Poor, Poor David Beckham

Karen — Tue, 17 Jun 2008 18:11:00 GMT

Corey Haim has a big mouth. He used to date Victoria Beckham before she met David, and apparently she sucks at kissing.

'When she kisses she does this little grrhh thing. What did it feel like? Like a girl gnawing on your lip!' says Haim in a recent kiss-and-tell magazine interview.

Of their first meeting, the actor, who suffered a drug-induced stroke in 2001 and has been in and out of rehab many times, says: 'These five punk rock chicks walked in and there was Vic - boom. So I had to hang out with her, it was my job as a man.'

See that David? She kissed him SO bad, he ended up addicted to drugs.

Come here David, rest your head here...I'll take care of you. Bring Mark.

And Corey? You look like shit, dude.

Mark Wahlberg Vs. David Beckham - Dad Fight!

Sassy Smith — Sat, 14 Jun 2008 13:40:00 GMT

Mark Wahlberg, actor, dad of two and one on the way - David Beckham, soccer star, dad of three boys and maybe another on the way someday. Two hot daddies, two famous guys just trying to live their lives the best way they know how, except that one might be slightly more famous than the other (or could be in part because of one's wife) and one of those mentioned men is not happy with the other because he is courting hordes of paparazzi, thus "ruining" the life of the one complaining. Guess who's not happy?

Wahlberg reportedly wants Beckham and his family to "go back to the U.K." because the large throngs of paps are ruining his life and apparently pissing him off.

The two celebudads live on the same road, and after Beckham and wife Posh, and their three kids moved to L.A. last year, there's been a constant swarm of paparazzi. I guess that makes David and Victoria more famous than the Wahlbergs?

Mark says, "That f*cker lives down the street from me, man! He has to go back to the U.K., because he has the paparazzi all over my house!"

Does that mean they never bothered (or cared) about Wahlberg before? What? Who doesn't care about Marky Mark and his funky bunch? That man knows how to wear a pair of tight, white......never mind. Come to think of it, so does David Beckham.

Hmm, I guess they'll have to have a battle of the tighty whities. I'll get the oil.

David and Victoria Beckham Have a Date Night

Karen — Tue, 03 Jun 2008 21:35:00 GMT

The Beckhams were spotted out for dinner in NYC the other night, and David was sporting a fresh cast after being injured.

I googled to try and find out how David hurt his arm, but came up with nothing. So I'm thinking he was helping Victoria put her bra on and the whole thing busted wide open, and snapped back to break his arm. In 4 places.

Daivd Beckham Wants To Get Victoria Drunk

trix — Mon, 02 Jun 2008 14:29:00 GMT

David Beckham is the (almost) perfect husband.

He spent months researching vineyards in California for a present to give to his wife, Victoria Beckham, for her 34th birthday. They plan to bottle the wine and drink it with friends. What, no sharing (with us)?

Ah, what it must be like to have millions of dollars to splurge on a present that you spent months researching because you have nothing better to do with your extra time. I went to Disneyland for my 34th birthday, wonder what I'll get for my 35th? Hint Hint.

Nicole Kidman - Tom Manipulates Our Children

Sassy Smith — Thu, 29 May 2008 13:37:00 GMT

We don't often see or read much about Nicole Kidman spending time with her children Isabella and Connor. And perhaps the reason for that is, ex-husband Tom Cruise doesn't want her to spend much time with the kids. Nicole finally speaks out.

Nicole, who split with Tom over 7 years ago, has made some comments to Heat Magazine about her relationship with Tom and her children.

Kidman says, "It's a pity they have been manipulated by the father to distance themselves from me." Nicole wanted to see her children on Mother's Day (of course, she should have been able to!) but Isabella and Connor spent the day with Tom and wife Katie Holmes.

She adds, "They are closer to their new mom now." How sad is that? It's nice that her kids get along with their step-parent, but for Tom to try to distance their children from their mother is unfair and cruel.

Nicole and husband Keith Urban are due with their first child together, and just like Suri has been able to bond with her half siblings, Nicole's new baby should get that chance as well.

Little Suri Cruise isn't all that impressed with David Beckham's soccer playing - or maybe she's just tired. Either way she's adorable. The Cruises took some family time to watch the L.A. Galaxy game on Saturday. They were also hanging out with the Beckham's three boys.

Pics of the Cruises & Beckham boys after the jump

Tom, Katie, Suri and Tom's teenagers (with Nicole Kidman) - Isabella, 15, and Conner, 13, and David and Victoria Beckham's three sons had a sports day out. Luckily Suri had her bottle and dollie to keep her company when she had enough of the game, plus she got some snuggle time with daddy. See? When I see pictures of Tom being a dad, he almost makes me forget the crazy. Almost.

And on a side note - what is up with Katie's hair and dress? Stepford wife much? Come on Katie, you're 29 - you should look hip and fresh! Just sayin'.

People were beginning to wonder where Tom Cruise was hiding his older children (with ex-wife Nicole Kidman) - Isabella, 15, and Connor, 13 - we often hear about Suri but not as much about the older kids. Perhaps they like keeping a low profile?

Couple more pics after the jump

Tom and the kids were out on Saturday, enjoying a soccer game, cheering for LA Galaxy's Landon Donovan, after he scored something or other. Uh, not much of a sports person, sorry. You're lucky I figured out that LA Galaxy is a soccer team.

Tom and Nicole's children are gorgeous!

Beckham With Balls, Again

HerBadMother — Mon, 17 Mar 2008 19:03:00 GMT

I suppose that David Beckham has no choice but to take good care of his balls. I mean, Victoria would probably chop them off and preserve them in formaldehyde for safekeeping if he were at all lax about testicular upkeep. Those are some serious babymaking tools he's got there. Can't be too careful.

Then again, maybe he just likes touching them. Can't say I blame him, if that's the case.

In Which David Beckham Shows His Heart

Whit Honea — Wed, 05 Mar 2008 18:03:00 GMT

Not that he is normally mean or anything, but the whole Becks and Posh thing gets so overblown that it would be easy for David Beckham to believe the hype like the rest of us do (with all apologies to Public Enemy) and put himself above the little people. It happens.

Beckham traveled to Shanghai with the L.A. Galaxy for an exhibition match with the local club, and rather than sit back and practice pouty faces in the mirror all day he paid a visit to leukemia patients at the Xinhua Hospital. I can only assume that he, like myself and pretty much every parent I've ever met, has a terrible ache in him at the sight of sick kids, not that non-parents are stoic in the matter, but being able to equate something so scary to your own children, that is just gut-wrenching.

Apparently his arrival caused such a commotion that the hospital had to shut down a wing for a couple of hours and cancel a donation ceremony. People went all kinds of crazy.

Still, it was worth it, just look at these faces- not a pouty one in the bunch.

Beckham to Teach Snoop Dog's Kids Soccer Skills on Reality Show

Karen — Sat, 15 Dec 2007 14:02:00 GMT

David Beckham is set to make an appearance on Snoop Dog's new reality show, Father Hood, this Sunday. The soccer star is to teach Snoop's 3 kids some soccer skills.

From US Magazine:

David Beckham guests on Snoop Dogg’s surprisingly ingratiating reality comedy. His goal: Teach the rapper’s three kids the art of soccer. Meanwhile, Snoop’s wife, Shanté, has a stern order for her man: no more junk food. Cut to the guys chowing down at a waffle joint! Sly fun. (E!, 10:30 P.M.)

I haven't ever seen the show but it sounds like some family fun!

Ain't Nuthin But a Soccer Thang: David Beckham Coaches Snoop Dogg's Kids

David Beckham and Snoop Dogg together on the soccer field? Well, as my dad used to always say, "Sports brings everyone together." Actually, he used to always say, "You can wear socks with sandals" but he might just be right about the sports.

Soccer star Beckham teamed with rapper Snoop Dogg's kids Cord, Cordell and Cori for a coaching session that was filmed and will air on E! Entertainment Television next month. A spokesman for Snoop Dogg says the rapper's kids are big soccer fans and idolize Beckham.

In return Snoop Dogg took Beckham to his favorite restaurant (and mine) in Los Angeles: Roscoe's House of Chicken 'n' Waffles. Fo' shizzle!

Even Criminals Love David Beckham

Whit Honea — Mon, 20 Aug 2007 22:35:00 GMT

Apparently David and Posh were next on the list of targets being hit by serial burglars. For those of you that may be unsure, a serial burglar is basically the Hamburglar, but with a much higher intake of fiber.

The plan never came to fruition as one of the criminals approached the police and confessed the plan. Turns out the guy didn't want to rob Becks because he's a LA Galaxy fan. This surprised police, as one department source noted, "It's amazing to think the guy they picked was a Galaxy fan. There aren't that many in La!" Seriously, they said that. I wish I had made it up.

Looks like there is something to be said for fan loyalty. I'm sure his partners in crime will understand.
