The Pretty People Unite

Angelina Jolie

Isn’t she wonderful, isn’t she beautiful, and finally she will be paired with someone equally beautiful, so that the whole world can know how beautiful they are. Yes, the prettiest moment in fashion is about to occur ladies and gentlemen, set your clocks now as Angelina Jolie and David Beckham are set to star in an advertising campaign for Italian fashion house Emporio Armani. The Oscar-winning beauty has signed a deal with Emporio Armani and the Italian fashion house is keen for her to team up with the handsome soccer star - who has appeared in a number of their campaigns, including some with wife the glorious Posh Beckham. Says an Angelina ‘source’:

“When you have David Beckham and Angelina Jolie signed up to your fashion house it’s a no-brainer to link them up. They appeal to a diverse audience and a collaboration would create so much publicity it would push Armani head and shoulders above their rivals. There are a few contract issues to be addressed but marketing experts are being tasked with coming up with clever ideas for a print campaign.”

A no-brainer yes, because we do need constant reminders of how important pretty people are to fashion. However, bosses are keen to make sure the adverts are not too risque as they don’t want to ruin the committed family image both Angelina and David have. No that would be a shame, they are both such wholesome angels and we wouldn’t want to tarnish those sparkly reputations. The source also added, “The two are exceptionally beautiful on camera but both are in committed relationships so the advert would have to be sexy without offending their partners.” Is anybody else puking yet? Because we all know how much respect Mrs. Smith, *cough* I mean, Angelina, has for the sanctity of marriage. Which is precisely why she hasn’t married the father of her own 6 Pittlets, right?

The Beckham’s Get Robbed!

Friday, October 17th, 2008

PacificCoastNews.com

David and Victoria Beckham are seen here looking stunning as ever as they preview their new fragrances ‘Signature’ for him and her at Macy’s in New York. Victoria is setting trends as per her usual self in gravity defying heel-less PVC boots, but she seems to manage it with the aplomb and grace that is Posh when it comes to style. And although this snappily dressed couple may look like they’ve got it all together right now, from the sounds of it, they are pretty shaken up after they were recent victims of a robbery involving items from their home. But fret not, we are not talking about masked invasions and pretty people held at gunpoint. No, the Beckhams were robbed by their own housekeepers, housekeepers who apparently have rocks for brains. Just recently, Victoria’s parents, Tony and Jackie Adams, noticed some odd listings on eBay that were being sold as authentic Beckham pieces. Items included the likes of soccer shoes worn by David, and some of Posh’s designer labels. And obviously, the couple has enough to spare if they didn’t even notice them missing, but that’s not quite the point now, is it. When David and Victoria saw the items on eBay, they realized the pieces weren’t being sold AS authentic Beckham items, but in fact, WERE authentic Beckham items and had been taken from their home in Essex. After they had their home investigated to locate the items that belonged to them, they realized that in fact, the items being sold were missing from the Essex home. And that’s when the police became involved. Initially, the seller claimed that she was a relative of a staff member where David’s soccer academy is conducted, and that the items had gone to sale due to financial issues. It later came out though that the seller was a Beckham’s housekeeper and both she June Emmet, and her spouse Eric, were arrested on suspicion of theft. Unfortunately, this couple had been in the employ of the Beckham’s for more than ten years and so it is not so much the issue of the missing items that has upset the Beckham’s, but that they have been betrayed by people they trusted for over a decade. David and Victoria have flown back to the UK to deal with the matter in person, but even still, June insists that she and her husband are innocent. She says

I totally deny the allegations. This has all come as a bolt from the blue. The whole thing has taken us by surprise.

But at least, the good people at eBay keep a paper trail of just about everything, and so this should be an easy case to solve. Not so easy for the Beckham’s to build trust back, but I am sure this is a lesson learned for them.

Mr. and Mrs. Becks Get Tatoos Together

Thursday, January 31st, 2008


It seems that America’s sexiest soccer star David Beckham has been inspired. He loves the show Prison Break, and more particularly, the body art played by Wentworth Miller’s character Michael Scofield. Becks wants to have body art that is similar to Scofield’s character and his latest addition to his tattoo collection is one inspired by love. David has recently gotten his 11th tattoo and this one you will find on his forearm. This tattoo is a testament to his love for Victoria, and embodies a 6 inch replica of Victoria. The tattoo is wrapped around an existing tattoo that writes a Hindi inscription of Victoria’s name. Awww….That is too sweet. And not to be outdone, Victoria added an addition to her body art as well. At a launch of her new denim line in Boston, Victoria revealed her latest. She has a new tattoo on the inside of her right wrist which is some kind of script that has been inked underneath her existing Roman numeral tattoo. No telling yet what her script is saying, but it is probably something just as schmaltzy as David’s love inspired art. How uh, romantic? Just in time for Valentine’s Day. Nothing says love more than permanent body etchings. Does it?

Victoria Beckham Looks Like a “Skinny Banana”!

Monday, January 7th, 2008


Yes, America’s favorite style queen is making headlines again, this time for looking like the skinniest banana on the planet. Here is Victoria Beckham with her husband David Beckham as they try to enjoy a couple’s night out at the posh London restaurant St.Alban. Victoria decided to give herself a little color zap, from head to toe, in this neon ensemble, whereas hubby Becks went a little more low-key. Perhaps to let his wife shine a little more? There is word of trouble in paradise as the two are spending so much time apart due to her current touring schedule. Perhaps that’s why they look so glum? The pair have been criticized rather harshly of late for never popping a smile, but maybe they’re just tired for heaven’s sake? I mean, they just might be North America’s busiest couple. But perhaps it’s the European thing. Who knows? But it seems the two never seem to escape the headlines, even if it’s just to dish about what color they are wearing that day. That might make me a little grumpy too.

Suri Cruise Loves the Spice Girls

Monday, December 10th, 2007


Here are Tom Cruise, Suri and Katie Holmes at the Spice Girls concert in LA’s Staples Center. This past Wednesday night’s show was the Spice Girl’s second sold-out concert. How cute is Suri and Beck’s boy! David Beckham acted like quite the hands-on family man as he made some Cotton Candy for the kids. It’s amazing how successful the reunited British pop group is.! I was at my local movie store the other day and the woman in front of me wanted to take out Spice World. The movie teller dude told her that the movie Spice World wasn’t in stock anymore, but that she was the sixth person that day who had asked for it. Ouch! In other Suri related news, she was spotted with mum shopping at The Grove in Beverly Hills this past Friday.

David Beckham Parties All Night

Tuesday, November 20th, 2007


And here we have David Beckham letting loose a little while on a recent trip to Vancouver, B.C. Canada. David was with his team-mates of the L.A. Galaxy while in Vancouver for a friendly game between the Galaxy and the Vancouver Whitecaps. After the game, David and his team decided to head out to a local joint to relax and unwind for a little bit, well, a little bit of seven hours apparently. Guess he was really making up for lost time given that he’s been dedicated to painting the picture of devoted husband and father lately. If this is the case however, he should be careful about who he is being snapped with, photography wise that is, as this lovely brunette bar maid he is pictured with was quite the presence in his unwinding brawl with the boys. What do you think Mrs. Becks will say about that? Good thing for David, Victoria Beckham may be a little busy at the moment to think about it as she just finished up her first comeback performance with the Spice Girls last night, an extravagant event in Hollywood that David missed out on. Yup, he was working again, and spent the time in the UK prepping for another friendly with the Austria team. Hard working Dad, that’s our Becks. But doesn’t everyone need a little down time once in a while?

David Beckham the new Face of Armani

Friday, November 16th, 2007


Well, it seems David Beckham is needing a little side work and has partnered up with Georgio Armani to become the new global ambassador of the Armani Fashion House. What exactly is a global ambassador for fashion? It seems Becks is going to be the front for an underwear campaign that will splash across print ads in magazines and billboards as well. It’s a three year deal that will bring him an extra 20 million pounds plus royalties on the side. This deal came in light of some of his other endorsements coming to an end this year with Vodafone and Gillette. His management team is trying to maximize his earnings as his football years are numbered it seems. Somehow I just don’t believe the Becks are struggling with money issues, but I guess it’s good to have your bases covered. So, the Armani deal will be a nice top up for three years on top of his half a million he receives weekly for his ACTUAL career which is playing football. And he will be hanging on to his Pepsi, Motorola, Adidas, and Coty perfume endorsements at the same time. Yup, life is rough!
