"DavidBeckham" news and stories

David Beckham's fans already know he's an ace on the soccer field, eye-candy on the billboards, and that he even pays it forward with his and wife Victoria's children's charity. So could he raise the score even more? He just did -- he cooks, too.

In a recent People Magazine Q&A with David Beckham, a reader asked if he'd divulge a passion that people would find surprising.

Beckham professed he enjoyed cooking. "My signature dish for Victoria is grilled prawns or lobster and fresh vegetables," he says. "And for the children and for myself it's pasta with fresh tomatoes sauce and olives."

If that didn't make you salivate, Sunday lunch in the Beckham household will. It consists of "roast beef, roast potatoes, vegetables and gravy and Yorkshire pudding."

The chocolate fountain is now officially the totem of faux-luxe extravagance and over-the-top pop materialism. Why? David Beckham bought one for his lovely wife, Victoria (a.k.a. Posh Spice). Evidently, though, it wasn't his idea - he used a personal shopper from Harrod's.

Victoria's chocolate fountain was stocked with Belgian chocolate and delivered with fruits and assorted sweets for dipping. No word on whether those Beckham boys - Romeo, Brooklyn and Cruz - got their own miniature versions.
