Goldenbald? David Beckham's latest look isn't a patch on the others

By Daily Mail Reporter





X marks the spot: David Beckham's neck tattoo points in the direction of his apparent bald patch





We've seen him with centre partings, crew cuts, ponytails, cornrows and even a Mohawk.



But David Beckham’s many admirers are unlikely to copy what seems to be his latest style – the bald patch.



It could of course have been a trick of the light, but the 36-year-old soccer star nicknamed Goldenballs seemed to have a chink in his tonsorial armour as he carried his six-week-old daughter Harper into a Los Angeles restaurant.



Beckham, who at one time had a multi-million-pound sponsorship deal with Brylcreem, still chooses to grease back his hair.





A life in hairstyles: Clockwise from top left, the fresh-faced teenager with centre parting in 1995; England's Captain Mohawk in 2001 and his luxuriant blond locks in 2003, running wild and tamed into a ponytail





Unfortunately, this did little to conceal the area of skin apparently visible around the crown.



In a sketch for Comic Relief last year alongside comedian James Corden, Beckham hinted that all was not well in the hair department.



As Corden pretended to style his thatch, he said: ‘I’m losing it a little bit there.’



Yesterday, award-winning hairdresser Karine Jackson said: ‘As a woman I love to look at David Beckham’s hair and I was a bit shocked to see this.

The couple were accompanied to the restaurant by celebrity chef Gordon Ramsey and his family





‘Certainly, he has been thinning over the last ten years. However, we have seen photographs of him in the ocean recently and if he was going bald you would have noticed it before.



‘Indeed, a particular bald patch is very rare in male pattern baldness so it could be a trick of the light.



'Alternatively, it could be a temporary loss caused by, for example, bruising from a football match.’



If Beckham is going bald, perhaps he should seek advice from his friend Gordon Ramsay, who recently invested £30,000 in a hair transplant.



The celebrity chef joined Beckham surfing over the weekend at Malibu in California, where the former England captain and his family are renting Steven Spielberg’s beach house for the summer at £93,000 a month.



The men were joined on the beach by Beckham’s sons Romeo, eight, and six-year-old Cruz, and Ramsay’s wife Tana.

A hard act to swallow! David Beckham feasts on a plate of bugs (but it is all in the name of family fun)

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Down the hatch! Down the hatch! David Beckham shocked onlookers, when he feasted on a plate of nasty bugs on Disney show 'Take Two With Phineas and Ferb'

With an estimated fortune of £165milllion, you wouldn't expect David Beckham to dine on anything for a mere tenner dare.

But daredevil David Beckham shocked onlookers when he recently feasted on a plate of nasty bugs.
The courageous act all went down on animated talk show 'Take Two With Phineas and Ferb', and of course the fly-ridden plate of creepy crawlies were just animation.


Dare: David was asked by Ferb if he would eat the creepy crawlies for ten dollars


In the skit, Phineas asks David: 'In all of your travels, have you ever eaten anything weird like bugs?'

To which David responds: 'No never tried them.'

'If we gave you $10 would you eat one?' asks Phineas.

'For ten dollars I will eat anything' says David, as he throws the bugs down the hatch and snatches up the ten dollar bill.


Game: And David obliged, saying 'For ten dollars I will eat anything'


David appeared on the spoof for the popular Disney program and was interview by the two pint-sized cartoon characters.

Along with pretend plate of beasties, when David was asked by Phineas what else he could do with his feet beside kicking a football, he answers, 'Nothing springs to mind' as he is seen eating a banana from his shoe.

Later he head-butts balls with Ferb, and gets challenged by a wannabe goalie, who he obliterates into the stratosphere with his powerful kick.

His appearance on the show, once again reinforces David role as the quintessential family man.

David has always personified doting dad, but with he and his wife Victoria welcoming their daughter Harper Seven into the world earlier this month, when he is not playing football, David has been spending every waking minute with the Beckham clan.

Earlier this week, he posted a picture of himself cooking risotto for his brood, and all week has been keeping his boys, Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz, busy with surfing trips and outings, whilst Victoria tends to Harper at home.


In the hot seat: David is grilled with questions from the tow animated characters


With the arrival of the new baby, some older siblings can feel left out as friends and family members coo and gush over the newborn.

But clearly not the Beckham boys, who have been getting just as much attention affections as their little sister Harper Seven.

This week they also got to spend some quality time with their Auntie Joanne, who lavished lots of love and fun on them at one of David's football matches.

Football legend, underwear model, doting father and now culinary god: Is David Beckham the perfect male?

By J J Anisiobi


Most men would find it hard to look after three young boys and a newborn girl whilst holding down their day job - but superdad David Beckham is no ordinary man.

Despite all of his parental commitments - and not to mention the commercial ones - the L.A. Galaxy football player still found time to cook a delicious-looking risotto whilst his wife Victoria took a break after recently giving birth to daughter Harper Seven - and then posted up a picture of the feast on Facebook.

Domestic dad David, 36, first started taking an interest in becoming a culinary king while playing for Real Madrid between 2003 and 2007.

And for my next trick... a picture David Beckham posted on his Facebook page today and he wrote 'A little something I made earlier.....a home-made Risotto for the family. Don't forget to check out my new Fan Zone on the left-hand menu'


It isn't surprising that David took an interest in cooking after Victoria once admitted she was no domestic goddess and made David nothing but mince for four years because it was the only dish she cooked well.

Posh explained to Manchester radio station Key 103 in 2008: 'The only thing I can cook really is mincemeat, which is ironic because I'm a vegetarian.

'But I like calzone and lasagne. I cooked every day in Spain so David and the boys lived off minced meat for four years'.

However, it wasn't until David moved to Milan at the start of last year on loan from Galaxy that he decided to enrol on a cookery course.

Superdad: David Beckham and his boys are having an amazing time while bodyboarding in Malibu


He said at the time to the Daily Mail: 'It's something I've always wanted to do.

I've always loved cooking. Now I'm in Italy, I want to learn how to make amazing pasta.

'It's gone from a small ambition of wanting to learn how to make pasta to the extreme of doing this course professional chefs do. It's something I'm passionate about.'

David, who is best friends with world famous chef Gordon Ramsay, could ask the fiery tempered Scot for advice if he ever needed to, but added: 'I'd love to cook for Gordon and I definitely will one day.'

David took in total 120 hours worth of cooking lessons when living Italy and it seems it was time well spent as he could put his new skills to use when he and Ramsay open their pie and mash shop together.


Best friends: Gordon Ramsay and David Beckham attend an LA Lakers game in California earlier this year where the pair intend to open a restaurant together


Becks and Ramsay, 44, registered the name PM (Pie and Mash) Restaurant in their joint initials DBGR in October last year and have applied for exclusive usage of the name for cafe, restaurant and bar services.

It is understood that they will open outlets specialising in English food shops in both London and Los Angeles.

Watch me dad! While Victoria rests at home with daughter Harper, snap-happy David Beckham captures Brooklyn on the waves

Kodak moment: David Beckham captures his oldest son Brooklyn on the waves in Malibu


David Beckham's new motto: while the women are away, the men shall play.

The soccer star and 12-year-old son Brooklyn frolicked in the sparkling blue waters of the Pacific Ocean in Malibu, California, today.

David acted as the photographer as he snapped his oldest son catching some waves.

Friends: Eva Longoria (second right)dropped by the Beckham's beach house to welcome new baby Harper


Wife Victoria rested at home with daughter Harper Seven, who was born just over a week ago on 10 July.

David and his oldest son surfed and boogey-boarded the day away, pausing to take a break when pal Eva Longoria came down to the beach for a visit.

Thankfully the L.A. Galaxy midfielder has three sons to play around with (Romeo, 8, and Cruz, 6, aren't pictured), given that he said this week he's learning to be more 'delicate' with his newborn daughter.

'Having a daughter is a whole new thing... you have to be a lot more delicate with girls than with boys and I'm not used to that.

'So it's a whole new experience but it's an amazing experience,' he said in a video post on his Facebook page.

He also posted the touching picture on Facebook, gushing, 'I took this picture of my two girls sleeping...'

In the shot, David is seen touching noses with his little girl, who is wrapped up in a blanket and wearing a little hat.

Yesterday David showed his joy over the arrival of the pair's first daughter when he took to the football pitch with Harper's name stitched on his football boots.

Pride and joy: Beckham has had new daughter Harper's name added to his boots


In addition to the names of Beckham's three sons with wife Victoria, Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz, the boots have now been embroidered with the name of the couple's new daughter, Harper.

Beckham also went for the colour pink for the boots to highlight his joy at having a little girl to add to his brood.

Accompanying a picture of the boots on his Facebook site, Beckham wrote: 'Check out my boots for the Real Madrid match. A little extra stitching needed from now on....'

And despite the fact that LA Galaxy lost to Real Madrid 4-1, nothing could dampen Beckham's spirits as he headed home after the match.

Beckham spoke earlier this week about little Harper, admitting he and Victoria had decided on the unusual moniker after the former Spice Girl's favourite author, To Kill A Mockingbird's Harper Lee.

Excited: Beckham, who has become a father for the fourth time, certainly seemed in good spirits as he played

Hugs for everybody! David hugs Real Madrid's Marcelo Vieira after the match


In a series of videos posted on his official Facebook page, the 36-year-old sportsman spoke of his joy as becoming a father for the fourth time.

He said: 'A lot of thought goes into our children's names and Harper was a name that we've loved for a long time for a couple of reasons.

'One reason is Harper's an old English name which we loved and one of the other reasons was Victoria's favourite book is To Kill A Mockingbird and the author was Harper Lee. It's a very strong, passionate book. That's where Harper came from.

Gearing up: David was seen in training the day before the friendly game

Growing brood: The footballer's three sons, Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz, accompanied him at training


'To have another girl in the family is really incredible. We've got three beautiful healthy boys already and we're so lucky to have that and now to have a beautiful little girl.

'Having a daughter is a whole new thing. Having pink in the house, having lilac in the house... and you have to be a lot more delicate with girls than boys and I'm not used to that so it's a whole new experience.'

Beckham's online video comes a day after his wife spoke of her joy as becoming a mother to little Harper.

Delighted: Beckham and wife Victoria have both expressed their delight over the new addition to their family


The ex-Spice Girl delivered the 7lbs, 10oz baby at 7:55am last Sunday morning via caesarean section.

She Tweeted: 'Baby Harper is the most beautiful baby girl I have ever seen, I have fallen in love all over again!!!

'We all feel so blessed and the boys love their baby sister so much!!! X VB.'

David Beckham gets snap happy during beach day out with his boys

By Sarah Fitzmaurice


Snap happy: David Beckham indulges in an impromptu photo shoot while at the beach with his boys


After 23 years playing professional football it is safe to say that David Beckham is in the latter stages of his career.

But if he does decides to retire from the beautiful game he does have another passion he likes to indulge in and the footballer showed off his photographer skills during a day at the beach with his boys.

David, 35, was seen capturing Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz as they soaked up the sunshine on the beach in Malibu.


However, the star puzzled many when he arrived protecting himself from the strong Californian sun in a T-shirt with a dubious pattern on it.

While David Beckham isn’t overtly religious it was still a surprise to see him sporting an inverted pentagram – a symbol sometimes associated with paganism and satanic worship.

The footballer was seen wearing the controversial T-shirt during a day at the beach with his boys.

Like the design? David was seen last year sporting the same symbol on a green T-shirt at a baseball match


This isn't the first time the football ace has donned the symbol and he was seen wearing a similar T-shirt in green at a baseball match last year.

However, the symbol was once used by Christians to represent the five wounds of Jesus which would fit with the religious imagery that Becks is so fond of when it comes to his tattoos.

And indeed, he soon took off the top to show off his body art while playing with his boys on the beach.

On the ball: The super dad still couldn't resist a kick around with his lads however

Referee! Cruz manages to get the ball off his dad in their game of beach football but Becks soon gets it back again


Swapping his football for a camera, the L.A. Galaxy star showed off her photography flare and got snap happy as the boys played with body boards in the surf.

David was dressed in a pair of oversized purple and yellow shorts – the colours of his favourite basketball team the LA Lakers – with a matching baseball cap.

But after indulging in an impromptu photo shoot with his boys Romeo, eight, and Cruz, six, it wasn’t long before David was enjoying a kick about with his oldest boy Brooklyn, 12.

Action shots: Romeo and Cruz balanced on their body boards at the edge of the surf while David snapped away

Giving chase: David had plenty of energy as he raced after his boys on the beach


And showing his son just how it is done David performed a number of keep ups as Brooklyn watched on.

But it wasn’t long before Romeo fancied a bit of the ball and went in to tackle his father in an attempt to steal the bright yellow ball.

Meanwhile Cruz found himself covered up to his neck in sand, but appeared happy at being buried on the beach.

Showing off: Later in the day David demonstrated his ball skills performing keep ups

Take that: Romeo couldn't wait to get involved and took the ball off David with a tackle


It appeared to be a strictly boys only day out as Victoria was nowhere to be seen.

The pregnant fashion designer, who is expecting their fourth child, a daughter, this summer may have been enjoying the chance to relax on her own at home.

Despite being six months pregnant the former Spice Girl hasn’t ditched her Louboutin high heels and has been looking as slim as ever with her baby bump rarely on show.

David discussed their excitement at the news while appearing on late night show Jimmy Kimmel Live earlier this month.

Up to my neck in it: Cruz seemed pleased to be buried in the beach


He said: 'We've got three beautiful boys and we're ecstatic to have another one on the way but when we first found out, we went for the scan and they said, "oh, it's a boy" and we were like "great" but Victoria was like, "Ahh, another penis in the house".

'She thinks there's too many in the house already. So then we went back for the next scan and they said, "oh, we think it's a girl". So we were like, "oh, ok, well, that's amazing".

'And then on the final scan they said it's definitely a girl so, yeah, it's incredible.'

The footballer told his host that he and Victoria had a few names in mind for their daughter, who Victoria is due to give birth to this summer.

And he said they had also asked their sons for some ideas and added: 'When we got told it was a boy, my middle son Romeo said, "How about Justin Bieber as a name? Justin Bieber Beckham?"

'So now we know it's a girl, he said, "Well, how about Justine Bieber Beckham?"
