Pandemonium ensued in Los Angeles Friday. Soccer star David Beckham arrived in L.A. Thursday and held a press conference Friday to introduce himself to the L.A. Galaxy.
Confetti flew like there was already a championship won, Victoria Beckham (AKA Posh Spice) posed for many, many photo opportunities and David forgot that we call it soccer — not football. Welcome home!
So what does this all mean? Who knows. He has yet to play a minute, but could there be a more heartfelt welcome to the U.S.A. than to be celebrated on national TV? Either way, we were totally enthralled by the day’s events and decided to capture the essence of this Friday the 13th. Follow the links for all things Beckham, Posh and L.A.
So … where have you been for the last month?
I think I may have seen this before … in a commercial.
One day in the town and Posh is already making media demands.
Get your Beckham jersey for just $80.
Mayor Villaraigosa already got his jersey, but he also got booed.
He’s not just in L.A., he’s in cyberspace now too.
But other people have been following this stuff for years.
L.A. likes its celebrities … who knew?
Pele captured soccer fans, Beckham captures soccer moms.
Maybe this means Peyton Manning will sell less stuff.
David Beckham for Phil Mickelson, a second round pick and future considerations.
