[lang_en]Helen Mirren’s Beckham Crush[/lang_en][lang_es]El enamoramiendo de Helen Mirren[/lang_es]

Posted By Gabi on December 15th, 2008

[lang_en]Dame Helen Mirren thinks David Beckham is the most beautiful man in the world.

The 63-year-old actress insists beauty can be applied to men as well as women and singled out the soccer star as an “Adonis”.

She said: “I am just not beautiful. Keira Knightley is beautiful and Kate Moss — it’s about having a pure aesthetic. “And men can be beautiful. The most beautiful of all, the Adonis of our time, is David Beckham. Everything about his face is just… ”

‘The Queen’ star also had praise for David’s wife, Spice Girls star turned fashion designer, Victoria.

She added: “Victoria is stylish to the max. And she’s gorgeous, though I wish she’d smile a little more.”

Helen hopes to follow in Victoria’s footsteps to launch her own clothing line. She explained to Glamour magazine: “I would call it DWS: Dresses With Sleeves. There are no dresses with sleeves and we need to bring back the sleeve: fine, see-through, long or short.”[/lang_en][lang_es]Helen Mirren piensa que David Beckham es el hombre más hermoso del mundo.

La actriz, 63, insiste en que la belleza puede ser aplicada tanto a los hombres como a las mujeres, y señala a la estrella del futbol como a un “Adonis”.

“Yo simplemente no soy hermosa. Keira Knightley es hermosa, al igual que Kate Moss — se trata de tener una estética pura. “Y los hombres pueden ser hermosos. El más hermoso, el Adonis de nuestros tiempos, es David Beckham. Todo sobre su rostro es simplemente…’’

La protagonista de ‘The Queen’ también halagó a la esposa de David, Victoria Beckham. ‘Victoria tiene estilo al máximo. Y es preciosa, aunque me gustaría que sonriera un poco más.’

Helen espera poder seguir los pasos de Victoria y lanzar su propia linea de ropa. La actriz explicó a la revista Glamour: ‘La llamaría DWS: Dresses With Sleeves. (Vestidos con mangas) No hay vestidos con mangas y necesitamos volver a las mangas: finas, transparentes, largas o cortas.’[/lang_es]

[lang_en]Milan coach Ancelotti urges Beckham to hurry on over[/lang_en][lang_es]Acelotti apura a Beckham[/lang_es]

Posted By Gabi on December 15th, 2008

[lang_es]El entrenador del AC Milan, Carlos Ancelotti, afirmó que la llegada de David Beckham es muy importante, luego que el equipo sufriera una derrota contra el Juventus (4-2) en el Estadio Olimpico de Turin.

Con el mediocampista Rino Gattuso fuera de juego hasta el próximo abril debido a su problema en sus ligamentos, Beckham no podría ser más requerido para rescatar al equipo. El ex capitan inglés, 33, será presentado oficialmente en el estadio San Siro la próxima semana al comienzo de su préstamos del LA Galaxy.

La prensa italiana comenta que David y su esposa Victoria se hospedarán en una costosa suite penthouse del lujoso hotel Chedi, cerca del estadio. El precio de la suite es de 1000 Libras esterlinas la noche.

Beckham podría unirse al equipo del brasileño Thiago Silva, quien voló hacia Milan ayer para arreglar una transferencia.[/lang_es][lang_en]By Nick Pisa

AC Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti said David Beckham’s imminent arrival ‘was even more important’ after a rampant Juventus beat them 4-2 in Turin’s rain-lashed Olympic Stadium.

With midfield dynamo Rino Gattuso out injured until April, Beckham cannot ride to the rescue soon enough. The 33-year-old former England captain is due to be officially unveiled at the San Siro stadium next week at the start of his loan from LA Galaxy.

The Italian media say he and wife Victoria will stay in a £1,000-a-night penthouse suite at the luxury Chedi Hotel, close to the stadium.

Beckham could find himself joined on the newboys’ roster by Brazilian Thiago Silva, who flew to Milan yesterday to discuss a move.

The 24-year-old Fluminense centre back had been linked with Chelsea, but yesterday’s development suggests his next port of call is Italy.

The imminent arrivals will brighten the picture for Milan, who saw Kaka and Arsenal old boy Mathieu Flamini injured yesterday as Clarence Seedorf made his 300th Serie A appearance.

Juventus, with Manchester City target Gianluigi Buffon again an injury absentee, were 3-1 up by half-time through Alessandro del Piero, Giorgio Chiellini and Amauri, with Alexandre Pato replying for Milan.

A second Amauri goal settled the issue after Massimo Ambrosini had briefly given the visitors hope.[/lang_en]

[lang_en]Victoria Beckham Reveals Red Carpet Secrets[/lang_en]

Posted By Gabi on December 15th, 2008

[lang_en]VICTORIA BECKHAM follows a set of golden rules when posing for photos on the red carpet – to ensure she’s snapped in the perfect light at every event.

The former Spice Girl, famed for her trademark pout, always manages to look stunning in photographs – but only because she adheres to a list of strict guidelines.

She tells Britain’s Cosmopolitan magazine, “Don’t pose and talk at the same time, or else you’re going to end up with a dodgy photo! “Be yourself – if I stood on the red carpet with a cheesy grin, that just wouldn’t be me. I’m always quite nervous at those kinds of things as well. I just try and concentrate.”[/lang_en]

[lang_en]Victoria Beckham: David likes me natural[/lang_en]

Posted By Gabi on December 10th, 2008

[lang_es]Victoria Beckham siempre ha sido simbolo de pechos altos, pronunciado bronceado y un poderoso y famoso ‘pout’ en sus labios pero ahora Posh dice que en realidad le gusta mantener ciertas cosas al natural para David.

En su última entrevista, Victoria nos asegura que nunca la veríamos caminar por su casa de LA usando maquillaje porque a David le gustan las chicas naturales. ”Rara vez uso maquillaje en casa. Creo que los hombres probablemente gustan de las mujeres naturales más de lo que pensamos – David siempre dice que a él le gusta mi cara lavada’ revela a la revista Cosmopolitan.

Tambien nos aseguró que contrara a un profesional para su bronceado. ‘Contrariamente a los rumores, no me meto en mi tubo de bronceado – una vez me enviaron uno, pero no lo uso! Tengo rociadores de este talentoso chico en LA quien lo hace ver realmente natural’ dice Victoria.

Y a pesar de que la ropa que viste es un manjar para los ojos, Posh dice ‘El mostrar mis piernas o no, depende mas de la moda que de otra cosa. Me gusta dejar un poco a la imaginación, mostrar una parte mia y cubrir todo el resto’. La ‘diseñadora’ de modas es amante de compartir un poco de sus secretos ‘pouting’, y nos dice que lo mejor es ser uno mismo y abstenerse de los habladores.

‘No hagas poses y hables al mismo tiempo, sino terminaras luciendo muy mal en la foto!’.'Sé tu misma – si estuviera parada en la alfombra roja con una sonrisa de oreja a oreja no seria yo. Siempre me pongo bastant nerviosa en ese tipo de situaciones. Trato de concentrarme.’Ultimamente, Victoria ha entrenado a sus 3 hijos para asegurarse que le den a su madre la aprobacion antes de salir y trabajar su magia ‘natural’.'Siempre hemos enseñado a nuestros hijos a ser caballeros y a respetar a las mujeres.

Si tengo que salir y estoy vestida con glamour, los niños dicen ‘ Mami, luces adorable.’ Ya son buenos en hacer sentir bien a las chicas!’.

Victoria Beckham has promoted herself as an icon for plumped up boobs, tango tanning and power pouting but now Posh says she actually likes to keep things natural for her Becks.

In her latest interview the stiletto fiend insists you won’t see her wearing make-up around Beckham HQ in LA because David prefers natural looking ladies.

‘I rarely wear [makeup] at home. I think men probably like women more natural than we think they do – David always says he likes me make up-free’, she reveals to Cosmopolitan magazine.

She also says she hires her own professional tanner to make sure her fake bake looks the Real McCoy.

‘Contrary to rumour, I don’t hop into my own tanning booth – I did get sent one once, but I don’t use it! I get spray tans by this talented guy in LA who makes it look really natural,’ she says.[/lang_en] (more…)

[lang_es][/lang_es][lang_en]With a new fashion line and a houseful of boys, Victoria Beckham has mastered her balancing act

By Laura Brown

They say that to really understand somebody, you need to walk a mile in her shoes. But what if you can’t actually stand in her shoes? Such is the case with a pair of thigh-high PVC Antonio Berardi boots Victoria Beckham recently wore to a Macy’s appearance with her husband, David, in New York. It wasn’t that the heels were formidable; the boots had no heels at all. Victoria struck her patented pose for the assembled photographers while gamely perched on the balls of her feet.

“Oh, c’mon, they’re not that hard to walk in,” she admonishes as I masochistically try them on (after a bemused-looking housekeeper fetches them from Victoria’s closet). “They’re not uncomfortable! You have to go to a sex shop to get this spray to polish them.” Did she go buy it personally? “Oh. No …”[/lang_en] (more…)

[lang_en]Beckham’s Harbour Bridge bungee plunge[/lang_en]

Posted By Gabi on December 10th, 2008

[lang_en]Recent New Zealand visitor David Beckham texted his wife Victoria before completing a 40-metre bungee jump off the Harbour Bridge in Auckland.

The soccer star – who has three sons with former Spice Girls star Victoria – “looked a bit anxious” before leaping off the bridge as his Los Angeles Galaxy teammates watched.

A source said: “He looked a bit anxious and I think he was texting Victoria and the kids before he jumped. His friends were all laughing and giving the countdown.

“But then, when he was pulled up after his first go, he was raving about it. He was so excited he wanted to go again straight away. They made the bungee cord a bit longer so he went right into the water.”

David – who did the jump wearing just a pair of jeans and trainers – was said to be so thrilled with the experience that he bought a souvenir video to show his friends.

The source added to Britain’s Daily Mirror newspaper: “He watched himself on it then took it home to show the family. I’m sure he wants them all to know how brave he was.”[/lang_en]

[lang_en]Victoria Beckham’s label mystery[/lang_en]

Posted By Gabi on December 10th, 2008

[lang_en]Former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham has been accused of having an established designer create her fashion label’s new collection.

Victoria Beckham is rumoured to have had significant help designing her new collection by established French designer Roland Mouret claims the Daily Mail. Sources say fashion insiders, many of whom gave Posh’s collection positive reviews, have noticed many similarities between Victoria and Roland’s dresses. “The similarities between the dresses are undeniable,” an unamed source at Mouret’s office told the paper. “It’s been a bit of a joke as to how much Roland has been involved.

We have all been convinced that Roland and Victoria must be in some kind of a business arrangement.” However, a spokesman for Victoria insists everything is above board, “Roland set Victoria up with his pattern cutter and also introduced her to his fabric suppliers.” They explained. “The seamstress atelier in Battersea was introduced to Victoria via Roland – they are a couture atelier looking after many London-based designers. There is no secret Roland has helped Victoria set up various aspects of her atelier in London.” Interestingly both Victoria and Roland Mouret are represented by Simon Fuller at 19 management.[/lang_en]
