siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh.

that is just too much...

For the first time, I've forgotten about the girlie voice and fallen in love with him! ::swoon::

By the time I got through with him, there would be very little of him left, but what remained would be a very happy man, trust.

Good Lord, I love soccer players. They have the BEST bodies.

godalmighty.

he is scrumptious -sigh-

I will beat Posh's skinny ass (and deflate her boobs out of pure spite) to have some one-on-one time with this man.

I needed this. Thank you.

AS LONG AS HE DOESN'T SPEAK.

@STICKSnSCONES: hahaha the visual of that I just had almost made me choke!

Nice. So for five minutes these people forget the miserable conditions of their country because some soccer star shows up for a heartwarming photo op. Then he leaves and everything goes on exactly as before. Beckham gets to feel good about himself, the crappy gossip magazines make some money, and Americans can continue to ignore what a complete mess we've made of this planet. But, hey, nice pecs.

I've never in my life found him to be attractive until that top picture.

Take notes Brad Pitt.

@i hate your escalade: Yep. Then he can go fly back to one of his houses.

FADE IN:

INT. bess marvin, girl detective's lair - NIGHT

david beckham and bess marvin, girl detective fool around in heart shaped vibrator bed. david stops and looks into bess' eyes:

david beckham: bess, i think i'm in love...

(bess marvin, girl detective squirms at voice. she immediately puts her finger to david's mouth)

bess marvin, girl detective: don't speak (points to private parts) just eat.

FADE OUT.

now where's my fucking oscar nomination?

@i hate your escalade: Woah there. He's with UNICEF, I'm sure he showed up with stuff for the people there, he didn't just go there with a camera and then came back.

And you know what? There's nothing wrong with people being able to escape their reality, even for 5 minutes, no matter what their condition is.

Second picture: He's wondering how to explain the newest addition to the Beckham family to Posh.

he has a girly voice? i need to defer to youtube for this...

@i hate your escalade: Didn't realize that caring about other people and thinking David Beckham is hot was mutually exclusive. Silly me.

I think the bottom picture is the best. He looks like he is really enjoying himself and having fun with that little kid.

@JessicaLovejoy: Excatly - that girlie voice destroys it. But as long as he keeps his trap shut, deelish!

@i hate your escalade: True. But the bigger picture is awareness. If it takes his hotness and celbrity to get people even saying the words UNICEF and Sierra Leone then it's good. Hopefully, our celeb obsessed society will start to take interest without the Brads, Angelinas, and Beckhams of the world, but until then let them whore for a good cause.

And, I bet those kids enjoyed the game!

@ineffable.me:
exactly. world football (soccer) actually does alot of goodwill/charity work in africa. many african players who "make it big" in europe go back and set up schools and charities in their home countries. and there are lots of programs in place right now as the african nations' cup is currently being played and with the next world cup being staged in south africa.
footballers = not perfect but they are devoting both time, money, and awareness to many different causes in africa.

God, UNICEF is hot now.

LOVE that bottom pic. That kid is smiling and that can't be bad.

Almost, but not quite enough. Sticking with the tomboy.

@i hate your escalade: I'm sorry, is he supposed to pack up and live there and devote his every last breath to the cause? Or is it just nice that he took the time at all to brighten the day of some people who have living a difficult existence in a very harsh part of the world?

Do kids still collect UNICEF pennies on Halloween? Hot. Hot. Hhhaaaaawwwwwt.

God he is hot. And he actually seems to like kids. Even hotter.

frickin yum.

@TruculentandUnreliable: Didn't say that and don't mean it. He IS hot. But he, and to a great extent most Americans, are either foolish or hypocritical to think that him flying in and taking a few photos with adorable babies, and then flying back to his incredibly lavish, wasteful life is doing anything to help these people.

he looks so much better just regular in a scruffy old tshirt and not all plucked and preened and fake tanned

Tendercome. It totes makes up for his douchebag Armani ads.

@hortense: Less hat, more skin???

Jesus Mary and Joseph he is ridiculously good looking.

I just stopped breathing for a minute. Totally hot.

I love him.

@Trashtastic: whoops that was meant for athertonmerriweather

@Trashtastic: no hat, skins a la Fight Club.

Ahhhhh nom nom nom

see? this is much better than abortion and mutilated vaginas.

@i hate your escalade: You're right. He should just stay at his lavish house and not even try to help them at all. One person can't make a difference.

@romastrega: Exactly what I was going to mention, but I saw you beat me to it, and more succintly.
It's easy for we Americans to be cynical about shots of Angelina or Becks or Madonna in some poverty and famine stricken African nation and dismiss it as a photo op for them, and some assuaging of their guilt for being so wealthy. But, without these celebrities providing access into the particular issue, some folks would never see these photos/issues, or donate to UNICEF or other charities. It may rub, but it does obstensibly help real people.

@TruculentandUnreliable: This is exactly why I lived over the soccer field for two years in college. Best view on campus!

@bessmarvingirldetective: I think it would work best in the theatre, it's more of an intimate setting and I am so there.

Alright, fine, I see it.

What a lovely smile he has! And if pictures of him make people want to know more about Sierra Leone and the terrible conditions there, isn't that a positive thing?

@PetiteDemoiselleRouge: Ditto!

HUMANAH HUMANAH!

he is SO hot.
and SO talented.

naked beckham taking a free kick = layla paradise...

My heart fluttered

@i hate your escalade: Gotcha. I get trigger-happy when I think someone is saying, "OMG, you're not talking about this right now, so you must not think it's important."

@PetiteDemoiselleRouge: I've never heard him speak. As it should be.

I wanna be that tattoo girl on his bicep......

I was so worked up over the abortion debates and thinking I never want to have sex again but now I'm all ovulate-y over Becks.

Thank you Jezebel for assuring Mr. FooFoo will continue to get some action.

...not really a fan of becks most of the time but this are pretty heart-warming photos. not they they'll really do anything. but i suppose if a shirtless soccer hottie gets ANYONE to open their wallet, its worth it.

Gahhhhh, I love me some Becks!
