Earlier this evening, David Beckham made a personal appearance at the Macy’s in Union Square in San Francisco, CA (he was accompanied by his entire family — Pink reader Stacy spotted Becks, Vicki B., the kids and their nanny having lunch at One Market earlier in the day) to unveil a new mural featuring a new photo from his new ad campaign for Armani Underwear. Here is the first of the 5 new photos of Becks modeling the Autumn/Winter Armani Underwear collection:

David Beckham already got hearts racing around the globe with his sexy Emporio Armani ad campaign earlier in the year, and tonight he’s unveiling his new campaign — starting with a giant mural facing Macy’s in San Francisco. The hunky soccer player will reveal one of the campaign images shot by renowned fashion photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott on the beaches of Malibu.

The full set of new Becks Armani Underwear photos won’t be released online at emporioarmani.com until June 23 but there was one more new photo revealed in San Francisco tonight …

Here is the first promo pic of supersexy Robin Thicke to promote his first single, Magic, off this new album, Something Else, which is due to for release in September … check it out:

See, the hat deffo works on a guy like Prince but I’m not sure it’s really right for Robin. I get the look that he’s going for is that sexy, Prince-like vibe but I much prefer seeing him full-on, not hiding underneath a hat. Still, the man is a sexy beast no matter what he’s wearing. I quite LOVE his last album and can’t wait to hear what new sexiness he’s got on his new album. Head on over to Robin’s official My Space profile to stream his first single Magic for a taste of things to come.

Okay … so I saw these pictures of Madonna’s eldest child (and only begotten daughter) Lourdes Maria Ciccone Leon enjoying a night out with friends at a *gasp* Avril Lavigne concert at the O2 Arena in London a couple of weeks ago. Because I was so appalled that young Lola appears to have horrid musical tastes, I didn’t really pay close attention to the photos … until now. It seems clear that Lola is rockin’ a lip ring on her lip in these pics — the question becomes, is it a real piercing or is it a fake piercing?

My best educated guess is that the lip ring is not a real piercing because I cannot believe that Madonna would allow her 11 year old daughter to get a piercing of any kind (especially since she doesn’t allow her children to even watch TV) … altho, back in the day, when Madonna was all controversial and stuff, I’d've not been surprised to learn that any child of hers would be pierced and/or tattooed — at any age. But I’m getting off point. While I think it’s cute for Lourdes to try and act cool (just like every other kid), I think it’s really cute that she’s trying to look badass by wearing a lip ring at an Avril Lavigne concert. Maybe if Maddy let her kids watch more TV they’d have a better idea of what passes for “cool” cuz I’m not sure that Lola quite gets it just yet.

With rumors going around that Britney Spears is on the verge of selling her old Studio City mansion for a new mansion closer to her children (who currently live in Tarzana, CA with their father Kevin Federline), it prolly feels like a good time to get the hell out of town … therefore, Britney packed up her personal assistant, her father/conservator Jamie Spears and (recent new addition to her entourage) her older brother Bryan Spears (who was just named as one of People magazine’s Hottest Bachelors for 2008) and made her way to LAX airport today bound for destination unknown … here are a few pics:

It makes sense that Papa Jamie Spears would be anxious for Britney to sell her Studio City home … you may recall it as the site where Britney suffered her last mental breakdown and had to be carted away to the hospital on a gurney in front of the world’s media. I would want to clear that memory form my family’s history as well. It’s unclear where the Spears fam are heading off to … they could pop up anywhere. I guess we’ll just have to wait and watch.*

*Clearly, I lost my head … Brit and co. showed up in Kentwood, LA to be with Jamie Lynn Spears at the end of pregnancy — but she could’ve been on her way to London to shoot a new music video (a report that came from Larry Rudolph) so I wasn’t sure which rumor to go with.

Yesterday was pretty much a wash … neither David nor I left the apartment for any amount of time. He was bizzy all day long with work stuff and I was quieting doing work of my own with the site and with the archives of PITNBv1. The IE issue we had over the weekend has been fixed and the site is pretty close to perfect for me. I’m very, very happy. To be honest, it was a really great day over all … David and I got to spend all of our time together and even tho we were both wrapped up in our own biz, it was nice working alongside him as the day progressed. I watched a portion of the NBA Finals last night but after the Celtics took a 20 point lead, I kinda had to stop watching the slaughter (they ended up winning the NBA Championship with a 39 point lead over the piteous Lakers).

Alas, David has already left for the airport, which is sad, but I will be flying back to NYC this Sunday so I’ll be seeing him again in a few days :)

I will be leaving my apt. today … I have a meeting in town and then I may just stay out and enjoy the day … tho, I hear the temperature will reach the 100s in the Valley today. OY! Hope all y’all are having a fabulous Tuesday Wednesday — OY, I’m a bit out of it :)

After hitting a bit of a snag right at the appointed 10am PT launch time, Mozilla managed to successfully launch the third version of their popular Firefox web browser at 11am PT yesterday and went on to serve over 8 million downloads of the software. They are hoping that the good folks at Guinness World Records will certify this as a new world record (one that has never been previously certified):

Mozilla on Tuesday released an improved version of its Firefox web browser that has gained popularity as a free alternative to Microsoft’s ubiquitous Internet Explorer. Mozilla said Firefox 3 promises Internet surfing that is fast, secure, and easy to customize because it is designed to adapt to people’s online activities. The company claimed the new Firefox version, available in 50 languages, is at least twice as fast as its predecessor and boasts “15,000 improvements” including malware protection. “We’re really proud of Firefox 3 and it just shows what a committed, energized global community can do when they work together,” Mozilla chief executive John Lilly said in a release. The Mozilla Foundation is a nonprofit organization that builds and refines public, open-source software in a collaborative manner with input from engineers around the world. Mozilla is rallying devotees to help it set a Guinness World Record for the largest number of software downloads in 24 hours. But interest in the Mountain View, California, organization’s new-generation browser was so intense before its release Tuesday that traffic to the Mozilla website caused it to crash. Free downloads of Firefox 3 commenced at http://www.getfirefox.com after the problem was fixed. Firefox 3 is available free for computers using Windows, Linux, and Macintosh OSX operating systems. Since its initial launch in 2004, Firefox has spread to more than 175 million users and 230 countries, according to Mozilla. Mozilla was originally a web navigator code name at defunct Internet firm Netscape when it dominated the Internet browser world more than a decade ago. Netscape eventually was eclipsed by Internet Explorer, and the company was bought in 1998 by America Online and reduced to brand status. The Mozilla Organization was established in 1998 to complete the free, open-source software project and it registered as a nonprofit foundation in July of 2003.

The folks at Microsoft cheered on the Firefox 3 launch by sending over a congratulatory cake to the Mozilla folks yesterday …

… which I thought was pretty dope of them to do. I’ve been a fan of Firefox since it came out in 2004 (I was even on Team Netscape back in the day) so I’ve been playing with Firefox 3 since it came out as a beta version (it is deffo my browser of choice). Even still, I downloaded the software yesterday just to be part of the world record attempt:

This does all sound a bit nerdy, but I spend a considerable amount of my days (every day, in fact) on the computer and Firefox makes my web browsing experience much easier and more stable (which is key when you’re blogging … crashing browsers make you lose all your work, which can easily drive a person insane). I hope that the Guinness folks give them the world record … they’ve worked really hard to set this new standard.
