England star quizzed on US chat show

The seventh series of Ellen DeGeneres’ behemoth daytime TV chat show started yesterday, and the first guest was some footballer called David Beckham.

Around thirty seconds of the ten minute interview was devoted to football talk, and the rest of the questioning focused on the LA Galaxy star’s underwear modeling career (which may go some way to explain his fidgeting and obvious discomfort). Keep your eyes peeled for an appearance by a Robotic former Spice Girl and the Beckham boys.

Part two of the interview can be found after the jump…

Insult this man’s wife and he WILL shake your hand

David Beckham Utd visited the Kansas City Wizards on Saturday, and despite clicking his heels three times, the England star could not escape more abuse from American soccerball fans.

While waiting to take a throw-in during the live televised match, Beckham turned and approached a fan wearing an England shirt, and was heard asking: “Is that an England shirt?” Shortly after this shrewd line of inquisition, the midfielder shook the fan’s hand. Normally, such gesture signifies a friendly greeting, but as we learnt last week, Mr B only shakes hands when he’s in a fightin’ mood.

After the game, he revealed the angry nature of the confrontation:

“He shouldn’t be wearing that shirt because what he was saying about my wife was a disgrace.”

The Spoiler is a little confused by Beckham’s sudden need to rise to this kind of abuse. Football fans - many of whom own England shirts - have been throwing ungentlemanly Posh Spice jibes at him for ten years, why the sudden needs to lash out and shake hands in anger?

Spoiler bonus: The game finished 1-1. Check out some piss-poor MLS-style defending and a very cheeky 60-yard lob after the jump…

The headline that launched a thousand Rebecca Loos jokes

Now that David Beckham has finished his extended loan spell in Milan, he leaves behind a half decent standard of football, some brilliant TV shows and his favourite Italian delicacy. It’s called “little bum”, and it’s made from pig’s rears. Apparently, Mr B can’t get enough of it:

David - who has been in the European country since January without wife Victoria - was first given the food by his club’s former manager Carlo Ancelotti, and the pair have been spotted eating it on a number of occasions.

A source said: “David can’t get enough of this fine delicacy. It’s got a much lighter and less meaty taste than most other prosciuttos.

He’s dying to get Victoria to try some.”

Victoria Beckham hasn’t eaten a carb since 2003, so it’s fairly unlikely she will be tempted to eat something made out of a fat-laden pig’s arse. If he wishes to ween his wife into the world of pork, perhaps he should try weening her in with some of Luca Toni’s sausages.
