David Beckham and his bulge fell prey to Italian TV comic Elena Di Cioccio who ambushed him on the streets of Milan recently for her TV show Le Iene (which translates to The Hyenas in English). Di Cioccio took it upon herself to grab David Beckham‘s family jewels to determine by touch if his package is really as impressive as it appears in his Emporio Armani Underwear ads. Here are a few screencaps of Di Cioccio‘s grabby ploy to find out for herself what sort of heat David Beckham is packin’ in his undies:

David Beckham fell victim to a wacky prank on Italian TV when a female presenter wearing yellow rubber gloves tried to grab his ‘crown jewels’. Blonde TV star Elena Di Cioccio carried out the ‘assault’ on a stunned Beckham, 34, as part of a popular TV show called Le Iene (The Hyenas). He was in the middle of a television interview when she pounced on the unsuspecting footballer in the street. Beckham was clearly unamused and was immediately hustled away by his security into a nearby hotel. But not before giving Ms Di Cioccio a filthy look. Di Cioccio targeted the former Manchester United star – who is now on loan at AC Milan – saying she wanted to see ‘how he measured up’ after it emerged he had been dropped as a Giorgio Armani underwear model by Cristiano Ronaldo. During his two years with the Italian fashion house, England midfielder Beckham was thought to have benefited from a spot of airbrushing to accentuate his six pack – and his package. Shortly after the campaign, in which Beckham was seen wearing a tight white pair of Armani pants, there was suspicion that he had benefited from some computer enhancement in the brief department. Although at the time his spokesman refused to comment on the reports and Armani also remained tight lipped. A source close the footballing superstar told Mail Online: ‘It was done in jest and that’s how David took it. She didn’t actually grab it, it was an attempt. She just got his trouser leg.’ Ms Di Cioccio told viewers: ‘Off the pitch we have seen fascinating photographs of David Beckham in his underpants and seemingly very well endowed and even his wife says that he is well equipped and calls him Golden Balls. ”Well the image may have slipped slightly as he has been replaced in the Armani campaign by a younger footballer, Cristiano Ronaldo, but we wanted to find out if he was as well endowed as the pictures suggest or if they were touched up.’ The programme then cut to the outside of a smart Milan restaurant where Beckham was giving an interview to an American TV network while Ms Di Cioccio could be seen putting on the yellow rubber gloves. She then worked her way past the camera crew and attempted to touch Beckham’s testicles who jumped back with a start and looked at her stony faced before he security guards stepped in and dragged her away. As she was led away Ms Di Cioccio called out:’I touched it but it’s small. David you have conned us all. What did you use cotton wool ? It’s all a trick.’ Insiders at Le Iene said: ‘It was just a joke and we hope that Beckham took it in the spirit it was meant.’ … A spokesman for AC Milan said:’We are aware of the incident and we have spoken to David about it but we have no comment to make.’ Today Beckham was in training with his AC Milan team mates ahead of Sunday’s crunch derby with Jose Mourinho’s cross city rivals Inter – apparently none the worse following the incident.

I know this is terrible because had this Di Ciccio woman intended to harm Becks, she deffo could have … but you gotta laugh a little bit when a dude gets his junk grabbed by a bold woman like this. You gotta admit, Elena Di Ciccio has got balls! After the jump, check out a photo of Becks giving Di Ciccio the stink eye as he drove away and watch video of this incident as it was broadcast on Le Lene …

Now, the entire 3 minute clip is in Italian but even if you watch closely you can deffo get the gist of what is going on:

Um … LOL. Oh Becks, do you see what you and your bulge inspire people to do?
