Beckham-Mania Continues
Everyone (including Towleroad, it seems) is a bit obsessed with David Beckham. Yesterday, an auction of 14 artworks inspired by the football star sold for over $110,000 to benefit the National Deaf Children's Society.
For a sizable donation, you could have had a b&w photo of Becks inspecting himself for ass acne, or a hallucinogenic portrait of Becks surrounded by a gnat-like cloud of Posh Spice. Not exactly the Venice Biennial, but hey, whatever works.
Tom Cruise apparently also drank the Becks water. Courting him for a cameo role in Mission Impossible:3, Cruise reportedly told him, "You are my hero."
No further comment, lest we get hit with a lawsuit.
Addendum: The Becks pic on the left is actually of a look-alike. I guess that's what they call artistic license.

He shouldn't have to inspect his own ass like that. There are any number of people who would happily do it for him, pro-bono, I imagine.

He actually has those tattoos on his butt! Why!? They look tacky and awful. It's time this tattooing craze was brought to an end before any more perfectly decent male bodies are ruined!

oh it's so sad that Beckham's ass can just make my day like that.
BUT IT DID!
*(and for the record, I think the tats are hot. just thought I'd mention... but then again, I am a typophile)

Obsession doesn't begin to describe it. Love the ass, not so much the tats... or the posh.
I wonder why he's always failed to be successfully famous in the US... maybe because we don't spell 'soccer', 'football'...?

Hi Andy!
It's been awhile since I've commented, but I've been reading your entries. :-)
After you, I began to run into a lot of Andy's. My boyfriend's name is Andy and so is one of my best friends. Hm...I've got Andy-fever.
As for King Beckham over there, whoever said sex doesn't sell has not realized the medium is the message. :-)
