More Salary Revelations
For those interested in the business of soccer, Becks is back on top as world highest-paid player:
The Los Angeles Galaxy's David Beckham has regained his position as the world's highest-paid soccer player, according to the annual report from France Football magazine.
Beckham's total of salary and endorsements jumped 82 percent during the last year to $48.9 million. Second on the list is Barcelona FC's Ronaldinho, who pulled in $38.9 million last year.
Beckham previously held the top spot from 2003-2005. His deal with the Galaxy has a top-end value of $250 million over the five years of the contract. (Source)
Oops...My Bad
You'll see lots of pics and pieces on gossip sites about how David was pulled over and ticketed for making an illegal left turn, so might as well mention it:
The soccer stud reportedly was pulled over for a traffic violation for making an illegal left turn on Fairfax and Sunset. Becks received a $160 fine and one point on his driver’s license unless he agrees to go to traffic school.
A spywitness says, “David was really cooperative. I think he knew he was in the wrong.”
...there, a sporting bloke willing to take a slap on the wrist when deserved! :) We may have them here at some point, but JustJared has a series of images here--you can even see him and the officer enjoying a laugh.
Idol Gives Back
The "Idol Gives Back" that features David's and Victoria's taped messages will air at 7.30pm EST on FOX tomorrow (Wednesday). It's a 2 and 1/2 hour telethon event, star-studded, and sure to be entertaining! Find out more about "Idol Gives Back" here.
