oh my gosh, it's not Posh!

David Beckham's having an extramarital affair. David Beckham's committing adultery. David Beckham's sleeping with other women in hotels. Whatever way you put it, his sex scandal has taken the sparkle out of the fairytale life of the world's favourite couple. No amount of pink diamonds can put it back. Poor Posh's had a pretentious and pathetic 30th birthday. And to me, Beckham is no longer the perfect man. Nope more. I almost wanted to tear down his poster on my bedroom wall. :-(

I was reeled in shock as Beck's reputation was trashed when lurid headlines and kinky tales fill the tabloids. The marriage made in pop culture heaven has finally hit the rocks. Aghast, I am forced to come to terms with the idea that David Beckham - England soccer captain, dad of the year, endorsement for cool products - has been playing sex games away from home, without Posh knowing.

From the gossip that i have read, there seems to be many girls involved - Rebecca Loos, Sarah Marbeck, Esther Canadas, Celina Laurie, Frida Karlsson. Everyone but not Posh.

But amid the sleazy entertainment for millions of people, the scandal has flushed out some truths about the nature of celebrity marriages. Although the couple each had "love tattoos" of the other's initials engraved on their wrists, all this is merely a "show" of lovey dovey-ness and family unity. It has destroyed my fantasy of true love. Even the most seemingly perfect, dollar bill-coated man can fall from grace, and very rapidly too. Even the couple who had it all, everything they wanted at ridiculusly luxurious standards, can be extremely unhappy. Now it seems it's all over and Beckham is starting to look like so many other celebs with too much time, too much money and too big an ego to know what he's doing.

I was surprised to read that Posh, instead of being furious over Beckham's breaking of their marriage vows or betraying her love, she reprimanded Beckham of risking their union by putting himself in such a 'dangerous' situation where someone could accuse him of having an affair. The bottomline to her seems to be, all those 'hard work' of portraying a happy family and being the perfect couple has gone down the drain. What the xxxx?? (pun to Beckham's txting unintended, haha) She dun mean to imply that this whole saga is a huge Bachelor reality TV show??

Some have criticised Posh for not being in Spain together with Beckham, who transferred to Real Madrid from Manchester United in June last year. The result being Beckham being 'lured' into temptations...Yes, blame the woman. Easy way out huh??

I also read that Posh's parents are giving Beckham the cold shoulder and spending most of the time trying to keep cutsy Brooklyn and his baby brother Romeo away from hearing their parents' row. Serves him right!
The latest news from the oven is: Beckham has tearingly confessed and admitted his alleged sexual liaisons and was reportedly slapped across the face by sobbing Victoria as the full extent of allegations about his cheating emerged. What a drama!

Sigh...To a marketer's view, a global brand like the name of Beckham is now tarnished as his clean-cut image becomes dirty. I doubt that Beckham will be asked to do as many advertisements as he had before this scandal, but the truth of it is, Becks and Posh are a team in the global branding business, and even if Becks is relegated or demoted due to his infidelity, they complement each other's glam factors.
We'll see how GoldenBalls stumbles further. My old bf defends him by saying that: "He is a man after all". LAME LAME LAME!!!
