Victoria Beckham & her Boys Watch David Play
Victoria and the boys were on hand at The Home Depot Center yesterday to watch David and the Galaxy play against the Revolution which ended in a 1-1 draw.
Pregnant Posh looked like she was basking in that lovely pregnancy glow and looked radiant! The boys also looked adorable as they muched on LA Galaxy logo embossed snacks.

The Beckhams Dine at Bouchon Bistro
David and Victoria dined at Bounchon Bistro last night with their pals Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes. David is the only diner visible in the photos but I wish we had gotten more! We haven't seen them with Tom and Katie in a while and I would've loved to see Victoria's outfit... obviously ;)source: www.zigazig-ha.com
David Chats with ESPN and Page 2
David Beckham is in the final year of his five-year contract with the Los Angeles Galaxy, which opens its Major League Soccer season Tuesday night against the Seattle Sounders.With the league's best player (Landon Donovan) and a powerful striker (Juan Pablo Angel), this probably is Beckham's best chance to win his first MLS crown.
Page 2 had a chance to talk with the soccer legend about the sport, his family and his new tattoo:
1. In Europe, you had a lot of success. You've been close here but haven't won it all. How tough is that for you?
"It's not difficult at all. I had the weight of the league on my shoulders when I arrived here. I had to carry the flag for the sport in this part of the world. But this game is something I've always enjoyed. It's been a great challenge. This is something I'm totally passionate about. I've seen improvements in the American game. We have some new teams coming into the league. In certain areas, the attendance is up. When I see all this, it makes me proud. Since Day 1, I've been proud to be part of this league. I came to the United States to win a championship. I still want to do that."
2. You've had some injuries the past few years which has limited your play. Is soccer still fun for you?
"I know it's easy for me to say this because I have gotten paid so much money to play, but I've always enjoyed playing soccer. It's never a job to me. I know it might sound silly but I would be doing this if I wasn't getting paid. It's never been about the money. I've helped raise the profile of this league. I think we've been successful. It's going to take more years here to equal the level of the European leagues. I've had some injuries and I'm 35 years old. I've worked hard in the offseason to get my body right."
3. You have always been in the spotlight. Are you tired of the paparazzi?
"We've had it for quite a few years. You actually get used to it. You come to terms with it that it's just part of your life. I've never really complained about it except when it affects my children. That, to me, is when it crosses the line. I've been with Victoria for 14 years and married for 12. So I know the deal. But we're very protective of our children. Thankfully, our children are very grounded. They say 'please' and 'thank you'. They know how to handle the situations. We're trying to keep their lives as normal as possible."
4. Do you and Victoria read the tabloids?
"I literally don't. I don't even really notice when people take my picture. I don't worry about seeing the end product. We haven't had it that bad in the United States. But just last week when we were in London, these aggressive photographers were jumping on our cars. I'm watching this realizing that my wife is pregnant and I just wanted to get out of there."
5. A lot has been made about your recent tattoo. What was it like?
"I wasn't planning on getting another tattoo. I've had a lot done. But I heard all these great things about legendary artist Mark Mahoney, so he created this tattoo of Jesus being lifted by three cherubs [for Beckham's three children]. It took about 12 hours over two days."
5a. So with a little girl on the way, thinking of adding to that tattoo?
"Uh, I'm not so sure about that."

David Beckham is Ready to Help with Tsunami Relief
David Beckham, a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador, is ready to raise funds to help the victims of the tsunami tragedy that hit Japan overnight."I will lend my support in any way possible," said Beckham, who was named to that position in 2005 and helped raise funds for the relief effort the last time a tsunami hit that area of the world. "This devastation has hit so many families. Unfortunately, these international tragedies are happening all the time. My heart goes out to those people."
As a non-profit humanitarian agency funded entirely by voluntary contributions, UNICEF provides as much support as possible to children who are victims of natural disasters. And that's something close to Beckham's heart.
Beckham, who has three boys and a fourth child on the way, wanted to spend some time Friday to talk about how sports can help at a time like this. "Obviously, they right now are dealing with the loss of their homes and belongings, but then I think it's time to raise the hopes and morale of people who are dealing with this tragedy. I've always said the game of soccer and watching other sports takes your mind off certain things. That's the power of sports."

Chatting with David Beckham on ESPN
On Friday, Los Angeles Galaxy midfielder David Beckham stopped by ESPN's Sportsnation to chat about the upcoming 2011 MLS season. Fans sent in questions and David answered the following ones...Tim: What are you doing to prepare yourself for Tuesday's match against Seattle? How do you feel about this season' s team?
David: I'm excited to be honest. It's one of those games that you look forward to. Seattle is a great franchise. It's one of the atmospheres that's closest to a European game. I'm excited. I'm ready for the season. I wanted to make sure my fitness was right, that's why I went to Tottenham. I've been working hard.
Brian: What country has better food, England or the U.S.?
David: There's definitely more variety in the U.S. I've always loved coming to the U.S. and eating traditional American food. But there's a lot I miss about London and England food.
Steve: How is the health? Will you be ready for teh start of the season?
David: Yeah, I would say I'm 100% right now. Last season was difficult with the injury. I've had certain points of the game where I had some difficulty with pain. But I've worked hard this season and gotten my body back to where it needs to be. I'm very close.
Chris: David, where did you come up with the art idea for your new tattoo? how painful was it to get that tattoo?
David: It was almost altogether a 12 hour session. The first 8 hours was one session and I went back a week later to get it touched up. It wasn't painful at all. I don't mind the pain, to be honest, with the tattoos. It was something that I had never had a tattoo done in the U.S. I knew about Mark and his work. Knew how good he was. He looked at my other tattoos and knew what I liked. The majority of my tattoos are family orientated or has a meaning. Three cherubs for my three sons. It has a religious feel. That's what I like.
Vinny Baker: do you want to play in England again before you finish your career ?
David: Who knows. I had a great career in England for 12-13 years. I've always said that I never wanted to play for another English club, because Manchester United is such a great club. I'm getting older now and I don't have many years left. This is my last contract year, but who knows what will happen.
Brighid: How has playing in the MLS affected you as a player?
David: Ithink it has affected me in a good way. I've been able to experience playing in another country. The experience I've had in the game, I've tried to bring to the game. I've seen the growth of the game the last few years. Iv'e enjoyed that.
Reid: Mr. Beckham, what were your first thoughts when you transitioned to the MLS?
David: I was excited. I always knew it was going to be a challenge. Soccer not being the No. 1 sport in this country, it's always going to be a challenge to raise the profile of it. I always said it won't happen over night, it will happen in 5-10 years. Over time it will get to be one of the better leagues. That's an exciting prospect. There is no reason that can't happen over time.
MartaMUFC: What was your relationship with Sir Alex Ferguson?
David: My relationship with him was always great. In any job, you have your moments with the manager or the owners of the team. I probably had two moments where it was probably highlighted in the press more than what was going on. He was a father figure to me, still is, he gave me my first chance to play for the club that I love.
Eric G: At your age, how do you maintain the condition you are in?
David: I've been lucky throughout my career. I've always looked out for myself. Gotten my rest when I need to. I'm a determined person. I'm determined to look after myself. At 35 to be able to play at a high level, I consider myself lucky.
George: What do you hope your legacy will be as a player?
David: Obviously, I'm hoping that people remember me as a football player that's had success in not just one country but two countries. Winning 6 championships in Manchester, winning with Real, some success in L.A.
And David's closing words...
I just want to say thank you for the support. I've had so much support in this country both on and off the field. I've enjoyed playing for the Galaxy. It's been incredible. Thank you to the fans. Please continue to support.

It's a GIRL!
David Beckham confirmed that Victoria is expecting their first daughter during a LA Galaxy luncheon yesterday afternoon. "Obviously, we're very lucky to be expecting again, and this is the first time I'm going to say it: It's a little girl!""We're still in shock. Obviously, having three boys, you kind of expect another one, so finding out a little girl is in there is surprising, but, obviously, we are over the moon. three boys are happy and excited, and Victoria is doing well."
I am so over the moon excited for them! This is going to be one very stylish little lady!
Congratulations David & Victoria on your soon-to-be baby girl and Brooklyn, Romeo, & Cruz on a little sister... finally!!

Becks and his Boys
Most football fans are taught to pick a team at a young age and stick to it... for life. But David Beckham has lent his talents to several teams throughout the course of his career, and as a result, his sons seem to be having trouble deciding where their loyalties lie.
The football star enjoyed a boys day out with his young sonson March 4th with a kickabout after training with his team. Becks was head to toe in his LA Galaxy gear, but instead of supporting their father's latest team, his youngest sons opted instead for rival English club kits.

Stuck in Traffic
Last week, Victoria and David did the school run together and got stuck in a bit of traffic on their way. Here they are riding along the highway in their Range Rover.

What's with the 'do David?
As much as I adore him, I sometimes have to wonder what the hell he is thinking when it comes to his hairstyles. Yes, I know he enjoys changing it up and setting new trends but this long style is not my favorite on him.
At the friendly between LA and Club Tijuana on March 3rd, he sported almost a comb-over type style that bounced as he ran. Did you guys love it or hate it?FYI... the Galaxy lost the friendly 4-3.

David Shops for a Camera with Brooklyn

The Beckhams Attend a Pre-Oscar Party
Two weeks ago were the Oscars and for the past few years, Victoria has been attending pre-parties and then the annual Elton John viewing event by herself. This year, even though she didn't go to Elton John's party, she did attend a Pre-Oscar party at the Coldwater Canyon Park with her entire family.
Yes, the outfit should look extremely familiar as it is the same one she wore leaving NYC after Fashion Week.

David's New Tattoo
First of all, I just wanted to thank you all for your well wishes and comments regarding my grandfather. It's a very difficult time for my family and I right now, and the fact that you all are very understanding really means a lot to me! He seems to be staying the same right now.. no better, but no worse either. He's going to have another surgery this week so hopefully it will all go well and he will get better soon!
The tattoo is the handy work of one of LA’s biggest tattoo artists, Mark Mahoney, who has worked on a long list of famous names who include Johnny Depp, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. "He’s not a tattooist who goes on and does TV programmes. He’s low key and stays out of things and is very talented."

David Debuts Victoria's Duffle Bag
They were the highlight of the bags from Victoria's fall 2011 collection and leave it to David to debut one. I'm talking about Victoria's new duffle bags. These bags were definitely a focal point in the presentation and of course, they were designed because each season Victoria makes sure there is something her hubby could use... a duffle is perfect!David rocked the black leather version while leaving NYC. I'm just surprised Victoria didn't tote one of her designs as well.
