David & Victoria Beckham Team Up For A New Armani Underwear Ad

2 for the price of 1
Tuesday, January 20th, 2009

Last week we got our first look at the new ad campaign photos for Emporio Armani Women’s Underwear that feature Victoria Beckham, which follows the very successful ad campaign for Armani Men’s Underwear that featured David Beckham. Today we get our first look at the newest Armani Underwear ad that features both Becks and Vicki B. in their undies … behold:


First they conquered England and America, now the Beckhams have made it big in Italy thanks to the unveiling of a giant billboard in central Milan today. David and Victoria have peeled off for yet another Armani advertisement, which for the first time features the couple together in a intimate bedroom scene. The latest smouldering image, in which the football star is seen lying across a bed in just his briefs while Posh sits beside him in lacy lingerie, is part of a lucrative deal which worth an estimated £32 million in total. The couple, who are parents to Brooklyn, 9, Romeo, 6, and Cruz, 3, are promoting underwear from the spring/summer collection for the Italian label. The image is part of a series of shots, largely featuring a solo Victoria, taken by celebrated fashion photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott. Similar advertisements are expected to be rolled out across New York, LA, London, Rome, Paris and Tokyo.

Dang … this is brills. To be honest, and I can’t believe I’m saying this, I hadn’t anticipated that the couple might appear together in a single Armani Underwear ad. I thought for sure that VB would be featured in a full campaign on her own and that Becks *might* appear in another full campaign … but it never occurred to me that they’d team up together. The ad itself is kinda OK … I’d prefer if Becks were laying on his back but I don’t mind the booty shot. Poor Vicki B. looks like she got kicked out of bed ;) I hope this isn’t the last that we’ll see of Becks in his undies … even if VB has to be included, I’ll take what I can get. What do y’all think about this ad?

Mark Foster Pays Homage To David Beckham’s Bulge

Yeah, I dunno who this guy is either but you gotta see this
Wednesday, September 24th, 2008

UK Olympic swimmer Mark Foster thought it would be neat-o to pay tribute to David Beckham’s famous Armani Underwear ad by posing in exactly the same way, prominent bulge and all, in the pages of the new issue of the British magazine Now. Here, for your enjoyment, is a side-by-side comparison of the competing photographs:


As far as impersonations go, it is worthy of a gold medal. With his finely honed physique and effortless smoulder, Mark Foster’s attempt to recreate David Beckham’s notorious Armani advert is virtually flawless. And save for the odd grey hair, his likeness is all the more remarkable given he is approaching his 40th birthday. However, there does appear to be one particular area in which the swimmer fails to measure up to the England footballer. While Mr Beckham showed off a suspiciously large bulge in his own pictures, the 6ft 5in Olympian falls slightly short in that department. Either way, both sportsmen appear to have made use of some rather strategic padding during their respective photoshoots. Explaining his decision to strip down, Foster said: “I’m so used to swimming in a pair of trunks and being in next to nothing anyway, stripping to a pair of underpants isn’t a major issue for me. But I don’t see myself as a heartthrob – I’m just me.” The 38-year-old competed in his fifth Olympics in Beijing this summer although failed to win a medal after tumbling out in the early stages of the competition. However, he is currently appearing on Strictly Come Dancing where he is one of the favourites to win the competition with partner Hayley Holt. And while he has never spoken openly about his love-life he says of his most appealing qualities: “I can cook. Even though I went out on the first round of Masterchef, I can cook. I find cooking very therapeutic. I’m also very good at doing as I’m told. I’m pretty tidy, and by the end of this I’ll know my way around a dancefloor.” Whispers began to circulate after a giant 100ft high poster of Beckham was unveiled outside a San Francisco department store in June. Fans could not help noticing that he appeared more well proportioned than he did when pictured in a pair of skimpy trunks while on holiday in Italy two years ago.

I gotta say, I totes approve … I think that more dudes should pay tribute to Becks’s sexy pose like this … whadda ya say? Who should be next?

David Beckham Is Packin’ Heat

... below the belt, that is
Monday, September 8th, 2008

Welp, it looks like all that bragging that Victoria Beckham has been doing about the size of David Beckham’s manhood is not an exaggeration … well, according to some bloke named DJ Kyle Sandilands who, apparently, has a radio show down unda in OZ and confessed to his listeners that he can confirm that Becks is packin’ in his pants … he claims to have seen the goods for himself:


DAVID BECKHAM does NOT have a sock or any other padding down his pants in those Armani adverts. Previously we only had wife VICTORIA’S word for it – but now a fellow LA clubber has lifted the lid after sharing a loo with the England star. Australian DJ KYLE SANDILANDS told listeners to his show: “I was in the toilet at Villa nightclub in LA and there’s only two urinals in there, it’s very small. Somebody comes in behind me, and I hear a soft voice say ‘Hello, how are you?’ I turned around and think: ‘Holy shit! It’s David Beckham!’ I’m midway through and I think, I’ve got to slow this down. I couldn’t help myself, for the first time in my life, I glanced down to the left and had a look.” Asked whether Becks was a big boy, Kyle replied: “There’s two types of penis. There’s the one that’s the same size all the time and the other one changes in size. Let’s just say he looks like he’s got it going on whether it’s happy or not.”

Interesting bit of intel but … sorry, I still would need either A.) photographic evidence or B.) an in-person inspection to be totally convinced. It would be a tough job, but I think I could manage either option in order to be 100% sure. Yes?

David Beckham For Armani Underwear

Almost Full Set, Fall/Winter 2008-2009
Saturday, June 28th, 2008

Woot! Here it is, y’all … the 5th and final photo four most recent photos from the David Beckham for Armani Underwear, Fall/Winter 2008 – 2009 ad campaign:


Okay … this photo is awesome. It looks the most natural, the most real of the photos released thus far. If we refer to the bulge in this photo, you will note that it’s not outrageously bulbous … it doesn’t look like the photo has been enhanced to death … it looks like a normal-sized bulge. It looks very nice.

On Thursday we saw the third and fourth photos from this campaign (one of the photos was turned on its side when it should’ve been upright) and then last week we saw the second photo and the first photo from this batch. After the jump, see all of the photos from the Armani Underwear Fall/Winter 08-09 ad campaign released thus far all bulged bunched together …

David Beckham ‘Amazed’ By His Own Hugeness

I feel I must concur
Friday, June 27th, 2008

David Beckham posted a new blog yesterday on his official website, DavidBeckham.com, wherein he talks about his new Armani Underwear photos and how “amazed” he is not only by the hugeness of the newly unveiled billboard in San Francisco, CA but also by the number of people who came out witness the unveiling. Awww … such humbleness … especially coming from a guy who is so willing to show off his bulge on massive billboards and in countless magazines all around the world. Here is the full text of Becks’s latest blog:


Hi everyone,

Well I’m sure you’ve seen the pictures but last week I went to San Francisco to see the unveiling of the new Emporio Armani campaign I shot a while back. To be honest I was amazed by the huge billboard poster outside Macy’s department store, but even more amazed by the amount of people who turned up to see it! I’m always surprised by the amount of attention certain things create, but the attention this campaign has created is pretty incredible. It was great to meet some of the people who’d come out especially though, I’ve always wanted to visit San Francisco, so it was a great to finally get there … Moving onto the football – Saturday’s game was a bit of a disappointment to say the least. We were 2-0 up and playing at home, so we should have closed out the game, but credit to Columbus Crew, they came back at us and forced a draw. We did get a point, but it feels like a loss to be honest. We need to make our stadium a fortress and win our games there and not give anything away, not just in defence, but also from the forwards and the midfield. At the moment it’s just the consistency, it’s all about finishing off teams and holding onto leads. Sometimes it just needs a bit of calmness. It’s all a learning process and we will get better, it’s just about getting the mix right.

That’s all for now

David

I love how Becks can write about his new underwear ad campaign and then so seamless change topics and start talking about soccer. That’s a pro, right there. I wish I could believe that David Beckham was really sitting at his computer writing out these blogposts but I just can’t really see it happening. At best, he may dictate a few things that get blogged for him but in the end, he puts his name on it and I guess that’s good enough. Becks doesn’t blog nearly as much as he should … clearly he’s too bizzy traipsing around the globe, playing soccer, posing for undie pics, chillin’ with his family. Pshaw! More blogs Becks! Tell whoever it is that writes them for you to write more often ;)

Even More Beckham Bulge On The Loose

Four down, one more to go
Thursday, June 26th, 2008

The blog We Love Beckhams has come across two more David Beckham photos from the new Fall/Winter Armani Underwear ad campaign. Previously we got to see the first two photos from this Armani Underwear campaign (HERE and HERE) and now we get two more photos from the same batch, which appear in the latest issue of Grazia magazine:


Woot! Me likey! Personally, I think this batch of Becks bulge pics for Armani Underwear are much hotter than the first batch we got at the beginning of the year. I understand that there are supposed to be 5 photos in total from this new batch … that means there should be one more pic on the way. EmporioArmani.com has been updated for the new Fall/Winter campaign but, thus far, the site only features one new photo of David Beckham (the one where he’s wearing the black undies while in repose). Must have more Beckham bulge!!! I hope the final photo does come out soon :)

Has The Beckham Bulge Been Enhanced?

Has Becks been Stuff'd?
Tuesday, June 24th, 2008

Far be it for me to besmirch David Beckham’s good name and the good name of his bulge which he is currently promoting in the name of Armani Underwear but the question has been asked and I feel there is evidence to be inspected and scrutinized to judge for ourselves … was David Beckham’s package enhanced in those sexy new Armani Underwear ads? MSNBC by way of The Daily Mail suggests that a side-by-side comparison of Beckham’s bulge back in 2006 with his bulge today, in 2008, shows a marked difference in … well, bulgeness … which leads some to believe there was manipulation of some sort done to Becks’s bulge to make it seem more ample. Let’s take a look:


The latest Emporio Armani underwear ads show David Beckham in all his glory, but rumor has it the soccer star may have had some help filling out his tighty-whities. The “enhancement” buzz started shortly after a 100-foot tall image of David wearing the famous undies made its debut at Macy’s in San Francisco earlier this week, and some found David’s form too good to be true. That’s when sleuths at the Daily Mail uncovered a photo of Becks on the beach sporting a similar look. The surfside shot, taken in 2006, features the L.A. Galaxy player in a white bikini with one notable difference from the Armani pics — the fabric appears less, um, inflated. The paper offered a side-by-side comparison and speculated that the difference could be the result of digital manipulation, but a spokesperson for David denies the claim. “There wasn’t any enhancement to that said region,” the rep insisted.

Interesting … back in 2006, David Beckham famously donned a pair of white Speedos while chilling on Roberto Cavalli’s private yacht as he vacationed on the Italian Coast. While he looks pretty damn amazing in those little white shorts, his bulge is noticeably smaller than the one we see today. HMM. What could possibly be the cause? If only there was another photo of Becks’s bulge to compare these pics with …
