That ticket was DEFINITELY worth it! Stars' homes tour bus treated to sight of David Beckham in a pair of briefs as they interrupt underwear shoot

By Nadia Mendoza and Louise Saunders


It's almost a requirement on a first trip to Los Angeles - a bus tour of movie stars' homes.

And those who paid out for a tour around Beverly Hills yesterday cetainly got their money's worth, when they stumbled across the rare sight of David Beckham wearing just a pair of pants as he shot a new underwear campaign for H&M.

The footballer grinned sheepishly as he caught sight of the bus, which appeared to be full of tourists, while making a dash for his car following the shoot.

What a treat! A tour bus going around movie stars' homes in LA on Tuesday were treated to the sight of David Beckham wearing just a pair of pants as he shot a new underwear campaign in location in Beverly Hills

Beckham, who was wearing just a small pair of dark green underpants, shared a joke with the busload as he was spotted on location in Beverly Hills, California.

He was later spotted making a dash back through the undergrowth to the shoot location.

On Monday, the 37-year-old confessed that he favours 'tighty-whities' over more loose-fitting boxers.

Fancy seeing you here! The bus, which appeared to be full of tourists, just so happened to be rolling past the shoot

He's off again! Shortly afterwards, Becks was spotted making a dash back through the undergrowth and to the shoot

Speaking at the Time Warner Cable Sportsnet launch in El Segundo, David told Celebuzz: 'I mean, I like tighty-whities. Someone asked me about tighty whities the other day, and I love them!

'They’re comfortable. I think they feel great, especially when you’re playing soccer, as well. It’s [comfortable]. But I wear boxers as well.'

David's debut Bodywear collection introduced nine underwear styles when it launched in February.

The collection was designed by David’s in-house team and sold exclusively at H&M, with the focus on 'fit, function, comfort and design' across the range of briefs, boxers, vests, T-shirts and pyjamas.

David also opened up about his adorable 15-month-old daughter Harper at the event, explaining she is a 'good mix' of both he and his fashion designer wife Victoria.

Speaking at the Time Warner SportsNet launch party, he added to Us Weekly: 'She's great. She's been running around for a few months now, so we're all chasing her and catching her when she falls. It's great to have another lady in the house.

'She kicks a ball around, but she also carries handbags.'

Meanwhile, wife Victoria has provided plenty of giggles within the One Direction camp after Liam Payne revealed the moment he first met the singer-turned-fashion designer.

The pair came face-to-face at the London Olympic Games closing ceremony, where the What Makes You Beautiful hitmaker attempted to plant a kiss on Victoria's cheek.

Speaking of the incident, Liam said: 'It suddenly dawned on me as we were waiting to perform that I was sat in a math class at school when it was announced that London was hosting the Games.

'Then, suddenly we are up there singing to the stadium. I couldn't believe it.
'I met Victoria Beckham and tried to play it cool by giving her a kiss on both

cheeks. She just recoiled a bit and looked shocked after the first kiss. I don't think she really wanted that kind of greeting.'

Liam told Examiner: 'Louis Tomlinson from our band stood next to me p***ing himself.'

Another front-row seat: Harper swaps fashion for football during a day out with doting daddy David Beckham

By Louise Saunders


She's already begun her sartorial education by attending some of the world's most-coveted fashion shows alongside her designer mummy, Victoria Beckham.

But this weekend, little Harper spent some time swotting up on the other Beckham family business - football.

Stepping out in Los Angeles with her doting daddy David, the 14-month-old tot watched her older brothers Brooklyn, 13, Romeo, 10, Cruz, seven, in action on the pitch.

Learning the rules: Harper Beckham sat on daddy David's knee as she watched her elder brothers in action on the football pitch

And it would seem the adorable youngster has already decided which of the family trades she prefers, as Harper looked more than a little bored as she took up her front-row seat for the game.

David seemed to be trying his hardest to entertain his cherished daughter, pointing out her brothers to her on the pitch and perhaps explaining the offside rule in great detail.

But his efforts were in vain, with little Harper demonstrating nowhere near as much excitement as she did at Victoria Beckham's New York Fashion Week show earlier this month.

I'm bored, daddy: It wasn't long until the mini fashionista was up and about, playing with her doting dad

Adorable: David Beckham lavished attention on his daughter as they enjoyed their day of fun together

Being ever the doting father, the 37-year-old footballer showered the super-cute tot with attention, playing games with her and whooshing her up into the air.

And the proud father made sure to treat little Harper to a huge kiss as they took a break from watching the game.

The mini fashionista was showing off a much sportier look than usual, casting aside her pretty dresses and hair bows for a simple white top, tiny jeans and adorable black baby Converse trainers.

Meanwhile, David chose a casual look for his weekend father-daughter bonding session, wearing a white crew-neck T-shirt, grey jogging bottoms and a bright red Adidas baseball cap.

As well as accompanying her fashion designer mum to a whole host of the world's hottest shows in recent months, little Harper appeared to try her hand at modelling during New York Fashion Week.

Earlier this month, Victoria tweeted a picture of the tot toddling down the runway ahead of her highly-anticipated Spring/Summer 2013 show at New York Fashion Week.

Not even you can get away with THAT! David Beckham loses major style points as he steps out in white socks and pool slippers

By Joel Cooper


He is usually admired as a bona fide style icon that can do no wrong, but now David Beckham has committed the ultimate fashion faux pas of wearing socks with his sandals.

Considered one of the first rules of style, it is widely accepted that it is incredibly unfashionable to sport the ugly trend.

And as an official trendsetter, you’d think that David would know not to wear such an awkward combination.


Faux pas: David Beckham wears socks and sandals on his trip to the Whole Foods grocery store in Santa Monica yesterday (Thursday)

What would Victoria say? David sported this bad combination as he returned to his car

With wife Victoria a legitimate success story in the fashion industry, she must be seething over seeing these pictures.

The LA Galaxy footballer was seen on a trip to the supermarket at Whole Foods in Santa Monica, California yesterday (Thursday), where he picked up groceries and was spotted eyeing up the wine.

Usually fashionable David has his own range of H&M underwear and is often pictured looking dapper at events.

Red or white? David was sure to check out the selection of wine on offer as he wheeled his trolley past this display

On a trip to the supermarket he wore a casual white T-shirt and loose fitting sweat pants, with a matching grey beanie hat.

He also recently vouched his support for the London 2012 Paralympic Games by donning their official T-shirt to record a special message to the troops in Afghanistan, encouraging soldiers to wear their own Paralympic T-shirts with pride.

David and wife Victoria have been recently been rocked by rumours of an affair between he and opera singer Katherine Jenkins.

Return carts here: David was a model shopper and wheeled his trolley back to the store

Katherine took to Twitter to deny the allegations: 'Dear Twitter friends, I've read some horrible rumours on here & want u 2 know I absolutely deny I’ve had an affair with David Beckham.

'The rumours are very hurtful, untrue & my lawyers tell me actionable.

'I’ve only met David twice: once at the Military Awards in 2010 & on a night out in the West End in Feb 2012.

'We were out in a group of friends & it was just a normal fun evening out. Just so we are clear I have never been on my own with him and never arranged to meet up.'

Posh Spice Victoria was said to be ‘bemused’ by the rumours, although a source revealed that she’d felt hurt by the claims.

The source told LOOK magazine: 'Victoria and David have been through a lot and love each other. There's no way she'd let the family get dragged into a Twitter soap opera.

'The rumours are not true, but that doesn't stop them being hurtful.'

Shouldn't you be watching the Olympics? David Beckham shows off his custom chopper in Los Angeles days after proudly driving torch down the Thames

By Mike Larkin


After putting in years of work to bring the Olympics to London you would think David Beckham would be glued to his television screen.

But the English legend preferred to show off his riding skills today as he took his custom built 93 Knucklehead for a spin in Los Angeles.

The midfielder looked quite the bad boy as he zoomed through the streets of Venice astride his classic chopper.

Knucklehead: David Beckham showed off his chopper as he zoomed through the streets of Los Angeles today

All the hoopla that followed the 37-year-old's appearance at the opening ceremony of the event last week seemed to have been forgotten as he enjoyed a relaxing lunch in the trendy Venice Beach area.

Much was made of the fact he was left out of the Great Britain Olympic football squad, despite the fact the past-his-best star is playing in the much maligned MLS in the U.S.

However his work to get the UK selected as the host nation was rewarded, as he got to pretend to steer the speedboat carrying the Olympic flame to Sir Steve Redgrave during the opening ceremony, who then ran the torch into the stadium.

The former Manchester United player looked far removed from the traditional biker image of leather jacket and jeans.

Instead he donned a pair white trousers, brown shoes, black T-shirt and a suede coat.

Unusual riding attire: David's outfit would certainly not have past muster with Arthur Fonzarelli

But it seems David had a good excuse not to be home watching the sport, as he needs all the practice he can get for a road trip with foul-mouthed chef Gordon Ramsay.

According to the Daily Mirror, the big bike enthusiasts will embark on a 382-mile trip along the Pacific Coast Highway, from Los Angeles to San Francisco.

Goldenballs will ride his custom-built 93 Knucklehead, while Ramsay will be on his £20,000 Harley Davidson motorcycle.

But he is not the only big name David likes to ride with - he's also joined Tom Cruise for a spin in the past.

The macho pair started the Midnight Boys Bike Club at the end of 2010, so they can enjoy sessions in the Hollywood Hills together.

Just a cosy lunch for three: David Beckham dines out with Victoria and Harper ahead of Downing Street meeting with PM

By Emily Sheridan


Family lunch: Victoria Beckham leads the way out of the 202 London restaurant in Notting Hill followed by husband David carrying Harper

He's back in London after a fleeting trip to the U.S. for a football match

And despite his busy schedule over the next few days, David couldn't wait to spend some quality time with his two favourite 'girls' - wife Victoria and their daughter Harper.

Ahead of his meeting with the Prime Minister in Downing Street, Becks joined Posh and their little girl for lunch in Notting Hill.

Doting dad: One-year-old Harper put a hand on her daddy's shirt as they left the restaurant

Victoria, 38, looked chic as usual in a putty/cream contrast collar wool dress from her Victoria by Victoria Beckham collection, which she teamed with a pair of tan wedge sandals.

Little Harper, who turned one earlier this month, looked adorable in a white broderie anglais dress, tan sandals and a silver alice band.

The trio were lunching at the exclusive London 202 restaurant ahead of David's meeting with David Cameron, where they discussed child hunger.

Stylish: Victoria was wearing a dress from her Victoria by Victoria Beckham collection

Earlier this week, Beckham confirmed he would have a 'small part' in Friday's extravaganza.

It comes after Beckham was controversially snubbed a place in Team GB men's football team by coach Stuart Pearce.

However, as he was such an important role of London's Olympic bid in 2005, the games chairman Lord Coe has asked him to be involved.

Becks told ITV: 'For him to keep me involved I feel very privileged. He has talked to me about a few things. I am playing a small part in the Olympic ceremony.'

Although he has declined to give away any more details: 'I would love to but I can't because it's exciting, it's going to be good.'

The Beckhams have been in the UK since early July, with Victoria taking middle son Romeo for a day trip to Paris earlier this week.

'It amazes me every time I change her nappy': David Beckham is still in awe of Harper... as he reveals he wants 'one or two' more babies

By Emily Sheridan


David and Victoria Beckham's daughter Harper Seven reaches her first birthday next month.

But despite her being in their lives for nearly a year, the Los Angeles Galaxy player admits he is still in awe they have a girl.

The former England star, 37, admits he still find himself amazed about finally having a girl after three sons, in particular when he changes her nappy.

You can take the boy out of the East End... David Beckham leaves The Cow gastropub in West London last night

Speaking on This Morning today, he said: 'She's relaxed, she's feminine - that was the biggest thing for me, it sounds silly but, everything about her is feminine, so having a little girl...

It still amazes me every time I change the nappy - I'm like, "Oh my God, we've got a little girl!"... it still amazes me.'

David said Harper is incredibly calm compared to their three sons Brooklyn, 13; Romeo, nine; and Cruz, seven; but maybe that will change once she gets bit older is able to run around and shout.

He continued: 'A lot of people have told me - I've got friends that have got daughters and they said how different it is having a little girl - and I didn't realise how much it was until we had Harper.

'To have three boys... there's a lot of energy in the house, they are constantly on the go from the moment they wake up to the moment they sleep, and Harper is totally different.'

Although they've got their hands full with four children, David said he couldn't rule out having one or two more.

Although, if Victoria became pregnant again, she would have to be careful after all four children were delivered by caesarean section.

'Maybe one or two more': David refused to rule out having more children as he appeared on This Morning today

He said: 'You know, we're very lucky to have four healthy children, if we have one or two more... two might scare Victoria, but maybe one more! But we'll see... you never know.'

The athlete was speaking during a live outside broadcast from a primary school in South Harrow, North West London.

Beckham was playing football with a group of children as part of his role in Sainsbury's Billion Kids challenge.

The project aims to encourage 1million children from across the country to try out a paralympic sport in the run-up to the Olympics next month.

Beckham's morning TV appearance came after he was spotted out for dinner last night with best friend Dave Gardner, fashion designer Stella McCarntey and her husband Alasdhair Willis at The Cow gastropub in Bayswater, West London.

Wearing a flat cap and shirt, the father-of-four spent five hours in the pub drinking and eating oysters.

Becks appeal! David Beckham brightens up airport security as he jets out of Los Angeles

By Iona Kirby


David Beckham was a sight for sore eyes when he showed up at LAX airport yesterday.

The jet-setting footballer was spotted heading through security as he made his way out of Los Angeles.

David looked rugged and handsome in an-all black outfit of leather jacket, T-shirt and jeans.

The 37-year-old star then removed his jacket, as is custom, and displayed his muscular arms as he prepped his belongings to head through the X-ray machine.

He didn't appear to be receiving any VIP treatment and was seen waiting patiently to walk through the metal detector.

It is unclear where the LA Galaxy player was off to, but his large brood was nowhere to be seen.

David will no doubt miss having wife Victoria, sons Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz and daughter Harper around to cheer him on at matches, as they appear to be staying in Los Angeles for the time-being.

However the football pro seemed in good spirits as he got ready to board his flight.

Before he left David had the opportunity to celebrate turning 37 with all his family around him last week.

The star's mother Joanne even flew into town to help her son enjoy his special day.

Victoria, 38, posted a photo of David and his mother at his birthday dinner to
Twitter.

The snap showed a smiling David and Joanne posing with his birthday cake adorned with lit candles, and decorated with the names of his four children.

Former Spice Girl Victoria wrote alongside the image: 'Birthday dinner for David!! so lovely having his mum and Joanne with us all in LA!!!'

So that's how you're supposed to wear tracksuit bottoms! Katy Perry shows off her midriff in new Adidas dance commercial

By Kimberley Dadds and Kirsty Mccormack


Riding low: Katy Perry shows off her toned midriff in the latest Adidas commercial

When most people put on a pair of tracksuit bottoms, they're normally slugging it out at the gym - but not Katy Perry.

The 26-year-old singer looks picture perfect in the new Adidas commercial proving that exercise attire can be sexy too.

In the new advert, the U.S. star can be seen bearing her midriff as she dances with an array of female backing dancers.

Scroll down for video...

Perry is seen wearing a pair of bright pink Adidas tracksuit bottoms dangerously low as she shows off her moves.

The Firework singer has teamed it with a pink and blue sports bra and matching trainers but rather than having her hair pulled up ready for a workout, Perry's dark curls fall over her shoulders as if she is ready for a glamorous night out.


Not your average workout: The 26-year-old wears bright pink tracksuit bottoms and a matching sports bra

Sporty lady: Katy also models a matching tracksuit top in the latest commercial for the sports brand

The latest commercial from the global sports brand also features appearances from tennis player Caroline Wozniacki, the Staatsballett Berlin ballerinas and DJ Baby G.

The one-minute-long video is an extension of the Adidas commercial that was released back in March and a follow-up to one released by the brand last year.

Perry stars in both alongside David Beckham where they show off their athletic prowess in a variety of colourful garments.

Teaming up: Katy Perry and David Beckham have shot an advert and a series of images for the new Adidas campaign

The I Kissed A Girl hitmaker was filmed running along a boardwalk in Los Angeles in the clip as she donned a vibrant purple jacket and shorts.

She wore a peach vest top emblazoned with the Adidas logo, while her trainers were bright red.

The fluorescent outfit was a stark contrast to her bright blue hair, which she dyed just before she shot the advert in January, two weeks after she split from husband Russell Brand.

Putting his good looks to use: David can be seen running alongside London's River Thames in the promo

Perry adopted a series of poses for the shoot, and at one point she sat on a merry-go-round as she perched on a carousel horse, smiling widely for the camera.

At one point in the video, the pop star runs along with two friends as her pal and Adidas shoe designer Jeremy Scott cycled passed and waved at her.

The singer also posed for another photo with the designer, as she wore a white dress emblazoned with colourful letters of the alphabet.


Bold and bright: Both stars showed off the new sporting range in an array of get-ups

Scott held on to her waist for the picture as he dressed in a pink jacket and colourful shorts, with his hair curled into a quiff.

And while Perry was in sunny California for her part of the TV advert, Beckham was seen running in London for his slot.


Athletic: The footballer was joined by Lionel Messi and basketball player Derrick Rose in the commercial as they ran along in different cities


Designer friend: Katy posed with Jeremy Scott, who also appeared in the advert as he cycled passed the singer

Smoldering: The advert is part of the brand's campaign as they gear up for this summer's London 2012 Olympic Games

The LA Galaxy player was dressed in a blue Adidas hooded jacket and black shorts as he ran along the River Thames.

And like a true professional he smoldered into the camera as he posed in front of Big Ben for the campaign.

Fellow footballer Lionel Messi and American basketball player Derrick Rose also appear in the advert as they all run along in different cities.

On form: Katy dyed her hair blue for the advert in January - just two weeks after she split from husband Russell Brand

The commercial switches to places including London, Moscow, Los Angeles and San Francisco, before a pile of papers was dropped on the floor showing the front page, which read: 'Britain prepares for 2012.'

And it ends with the tag line: 'Adidas is all in.'
