Celebrity soccer player David Beckham was named the top US athlete at the Teen Choice Awards on Sunday, August 3, 2008. The award show, hosted this year by teen superstar Miley Cyrus, represents the opinion of media-gawking teenagers nationwide.

Believe it or not, 33-year-old Beckham actually does play sports and relocated to Los Angeles, CA, from England to play for the LA Galaxy soccer team. He competed for this year’s coveted Teen Choice surfboard award along with fellow popular sports idols Eli Manning, Kobe Bryant, and Tiger Woods, to name a few. This is not Beckham’s first award this year; he was recently named ESPN’s Major League Soccer Player of 2008.

Whether Beckham received the award for his stellar soccer abilities or his general hotness, there’s no sure way to tell. This award will no doubt add to the increasing popularity of the Beckham family as a whole.

David Beckham was in San Francisco’s Union Square yesterday to launch his latest ad campaign for Armani. A giant billboard was unveiled across from Macy’s which of course delighted the crowd of screaming women.

The footballer happily sat under the raunchy poster to chat with fans after agreeing to become the face, and body, of Armani underwear for the second time in his career.

The new campaign was shot on Malibu beach in California by fashion photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, and will appear on signature billboards in major cities such as New York, Los Angeles, London, Milan, Rome, Paris and Tokyo.

It will have its print debut in Vanity Fair magazine, as did the previous campaign.

Beckham was named the new face and body of Armani underwear last year. I haven’t seen any man look this good on a billboard sporting their underoos since Mark Wahlberg’s Calvin Klein Ad.

Just so you can see more of David Beckham here is his new Sharpie commercial and him on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

3-year-old Cruz Beckham was recently spotted sucking away on a pacifier.

Most pediatricians recommend that the pacifier be taken away by 12 months of age. Prolonged use of a pacifier could lead to delays in speech development. I guess that doesn’t concern David and Victoria Beckham, after all, they can afford the best speech therapist around.

Cruz isn’t the only celeb toddler to keep his pacifier well beyond the recommended age. Kingston Rossdale still has one at age 2.

And don’t forget about Violet Affleck, who was photographed just after her 2nd birthday with a pacifier in her mouth.

So why is it that Suri Cruise with a bottle makes headlines everywhere, but Cruz Beckham with a pacifier doesn’t even get noticed?

Is it because society is more accepting of the Beckham family than the Cruise family or is it because people just love to hate on Tom and Katie?

A ‘posh’ party is planned for this weekend, at the Beckham’s LA mansion, in celebration of the birthdays of both Victoria Beckham and David Beckham. Awwwww! They can share the spotlight! It’s so endearing… Posh turned 34 just a couple days ago, on the 16th, and hunky Becks will be 33 in two weeks. Backstage Creations, a PR firm, will be making the swag bags for the couple’s 25 V.I.P guests.

Posh had her own small shindig at the Pink Taco restaurant yesterday with her studly hubby and kids. Nice to know that even though the woman is worth millions, she still knows how to keep it fun and down to earth. Go on with your 34 year old self… work it! Girl, you don’t look a day over 25!

Victoria Beckham celebrated her 34th birthday yesterday at the hip mexican restaurant, Pink Taco, at Westfield mall in Century City. Her husband, David was there to enjoy the small party with their three sons, Brooklyn, 9, Romeo, 5, and Cruz, 3.

Little Cruz is the superstar in training! Besides from his break dancing skills, we now can see how he has learned to emulate an interesting gesture his famous papa.

Here is Cruz’s hand gesture with a photo of his father in a similar pose at Euro 2000, the European Football Championships. This sure is a classic example of like father, like son!

A better video of Lil’ Cruz break dancing got posted & you have to see it–it’s a close up view that enables you to really see his moves. Seriously, this kid was still 2 (but almost 3) years old in this video and he has the MOST INSANE moves! He spins on his flipp’n head! Watch the video in our “Recent Videos” section–NOW! GO WATCH IT! WHY ARE U STILL READING?!

Have you seen the video of Cruz Beckham break dancing on stage at the Spice Girl’s concert in New York? It’s adorable and awesome–little Cruz has some serious moves for a 2.9 year old (he turned 3 years old two days after his world stage break dancing debut). (You can see the video in our video section.)

Each of the Spice Girls brought all their little kidlets onto the stage at Madison Square Garden while performing the song, “Mama,” and little Cruz busted away from the group and started break dancing like a pro–he was doing all kinds of little tricks & had serious rhythm & flair!

The Madison Square Garden holds approximately 20,000 guests and the crowd was going absolutely nuts every time he busted a move and it just fueled him on–he’s a gutsy little thing.

Mel B started laughing a bit mid-song and said, “That’s brilliant!” At the end of the song Posh told her son, “That was some great break dancing!”

The next day, Geri, told reporters, “Victoria’s son Cruz was a little star.”

The tour is winding down now, with only 6 shows remaining. Geri said, “…it’s rather like a countdown. I feel a mixture of sadness and joy. I know it is time to come home but I will miss everyone from the tour.”

The Beckman boys–David with sons Brooklyn and Romeo–we’re out driving in Beverly Hills today, apparently paying a visit to a pediatrician.  What is it about a man taking care of his kids that’s so damn sexy?

Brooklyn will be 9 years old in March; Romeo is 5; and their other son, Cruz (not out and about with the other Beckham boys this time) will be turning 3 in just a few days–February 20th!
