When David Beckham and his ex Spice Girl wife, Victoria Beckham, hit Los Angeles last year they were the epitome of fashion, socializing and everything that Hollywood represented.
But take a look at them now! Its all about the comfort zone these days!
David appears to have changed his shopping habits from Rodeo Drive to Marks and Spencer as he sits on Oprah Winfrey’s couch wearing a dull maroon knitted cardy and an unlatching black tie. Golden Balls is smiling admiringly at Posh Spice as she takes on a transformation that sees her looking more like the 1950’s Audrey Hepburn as she appeared in Breakfast at Tiffany’s than the clothes horse we know her to be.
Has their friendship with the Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes had a bigger effect on them than anyone knows? Does Scientology have its own ‘uniform’ like the polygamy wives in Utah?
The Beckhams were appearing on Oprah in a special edition of her show which celebrated Tom Cruise’s 25th year in the movies.
Paying tribute to their celebrity friend, the couple revealed how they once did the conga through a Spanish restaurant with Tom and his wife Katie Holmes. Other pre-recorded tributes came from Renee Zellweger, who starred with him in Jerry Maguire, Will Smith and wife Jada Pinkett Smith, and Jamie Foxx, who appeared with Cruise in Collateral.

Filmed in part in shades of sepia, apart from Renee Zellwegger’s scarlet lip stick which is the only bright spot in the movie, this film, from the outset delivers a script which is as transparent as Saran-Wrap and although billed as a romantic comedy falls short on both fronts. With all the adoration felt for George Clooney there is nothing good to be said of his personally directed movie Leatherheads except that the sooner as it goes to DVD and leaves the movie theaters the better.
Taken purely as a period piece set in the roaring 1920’s it is vaguely reminiscent of Paper Moon, The Great Gatsby and The Sting, but the script itself leaves a lot to be desired.
Although loosely based on the establishment of pro football, there are far too many muddy football scrums, and one too many slapstick fights between Clooney and anyone who is willing to spar with him. The script laboured to hold ones attention only occasionally causing a smile at the witty clichés, but studied lines of Clooney and Zellwegger.
Clooney, as Dodge Connelly, although handsome and vaguely witty, only manages to pull the role off because of his good looks and Renee Zellwegger’s character of Lexie Littleton, a fast talking journalist for The Chicago Tribune, has taken on a role far beneath her acting capabilities.
After seeing the movie the only thing in it’s favour are the good looks and charm of Mr Clooney and the beautiful 1920’s styles brought to life by Zellwegger.
