I was on a train, reading the
'free paper, the Metro', when the unknown woman next to me said, and I quote,
"That (David) Beckham, he's so mean and moody in that picture". She was pointing at the picture below ....

| Beckham - Mean And Moody And Magnificent ... well according to women (and some men). |
And to be fair, and with my metro-sexual hat on
(It don't fit well, but one has to try and keep up with trends), looking at this picture, I can't argue with her general sentiments. Here he is with a group of friends, motorcycling across Brazil, as a part of the TV coverage of the World Cup 2014 tournament. He was filming a documentary to meet the
'Yanomami' .... a machete wielding tribe of Indians.
Why, wasn't very clear ..... in fact as they had no TV's, it would be one of the few times for Mr Beckham that he wouldn't be recognised by anyone there ... something he said he looked forward to.
But even in the mud of the Amazon rainforest, he looks like an advert for hair products .... its enough to make you sick. Mind you, as the Yanomami don't wear clothes, there will be no TV adverts of Mr Beckham in the jungle with them .... so that's something to be thankful for at least.
NB: I watched the show in 2022 and it wasn't too bad ... Mr Beckham was recognised by nearly everyone outside of the jungle.
