David Beckham shares tattoo with fans

David Beckham's tattoo
David Beckham has shared a photograph of his new tattoo with fans.

The 36-year-old soccer superstar has multiple inkings on his body and after showing a glimpse of his new artwork - the name of his new baby daughter Harper etched in script along his left collarbone - when he removed his shirt following his team Los Angeles Galaxy's win against FC Dallas on Saturday, he has now produced a picture of the design.

Posting a close-up photo of the design on his Facebook page, he captioned the photo: "My latest tattoo."

The new inking sits above a design of Jesus being carried by three cherubs, which is dedicated to sons Brooklyn, 12, Romeo, eight, and six-year-old Cruz.

Explaining the cherub tattoo, which he had in February, David previously said: "It is Jesus being carried by three cherubs and obviously the cherubs are my boys and so my thought of it is that at some point my boys are going to need to look after me and that's what they're doing in the picture. It means a lot."

In addition, David has Brooklyn's name running across his lower back, Romeo on the base of his neck and Cruz across the middle of his back underneath an image of a guardian angel, as well as wife Victoria's name written in Hindu script along his forearm.

Fashion designer Victoria has a number of tattoos, including an inscription on her back and a Roman numeral on her wrist.

Madonna's attention terrifies Antonio Banderas

Antonio Banderas
Hollywood actor Antonio Banderas was terrified after knowing that pop singer Madonna likes him as he believes that she is too "powerful" to have an affair.

The "Material Girl" famously flaunted her crush on Banderas in her outrageous documentary "In Bed With Madonna" released 1991. The documentary saw her flirting with a shy Banderas at a party in Spain.

However, the actor admits he gets nervous in Madonna's presence because he couldn't speak English.

"I couldn't speak English at the time. She said a lot of things at the table when we were having dinner - I couldn't understand s**t. I was just flipping out that I was sitting down close to Madonna. She was very famous already, and we were just local people," contactmusic.com quoted the 50-year-old as saying.

"It was kind of flattering when somebody said, 'She likes you, a lot.' I said, 'Oh, really? I've no idea what I should do about this. I mean, I'm married (to first wife, Ana Leza).' So, nothing happened. I was afraid of it at the time, because she was a very powerful woman. I didn't want to be Madonna's boy. For good or for bad, I just wanted to have my own career," he added.

George Clooney says he likes to be surrounded by strong women -- and values honesty and humour in friends.

The 50-year-old, who recently split from girlfriend Elisabetta Canalis after being together for two years, is now rumoured to be dating former wrestler Stacy Keibler, reports contactmusic.com.

"I've always had really great friends on both sides of the aisle, so to speak. I grew up with strong women, my mom is strong and so is my sister and so was my aunt, Rosemary Clooney," said Clooney.

"I've always been comfortable around women. I have some truly great women friends and the friendship is non-romantic," he added.

The actor also values honesty and humour in his friends, and loves the way his loved ones keep him grounded.

"I look for a sense of humour and fun, an interest in other people and, most important of all, honesty. I don't surround myself with people who are on my payroll and have to agree with every word I say," he said.

Shocking sculpture of nude Justin & Selena

Justin & Selena's nude sculpture
Artist Daniel Edwards, infamous for his strange depiction of celebrities, recently unveiled a new sculpture of a nude Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez as Adam and Eve. Sculptor Daniel Edwards, infamous for sculpting such sculptures as Britney Spears giving birth, Suri's poop, Angelina Jolie nursing, Paris Hilton dead, and an Angelina and Brad Pitt piece called "Brangelina As One," unveiled a new piece, entitled "Justin And Selena As One."

The sculpture features a nude Bieber statuette, complete with bowl cut, and a nude Selena Gomez statuette conjoined at the rib, and sharing three legs. Their privates covered in symbols of their hometowns, Bieber has a maple leaf, and Gomez has a lone star.

They stand atop a base that reads "Justin and Selena Forever."In a press release, Edwards' spokesperson explains the artist wanted to depict Bieber and Gomez as Adam and Eve. Gomez is leading Bieber to Eden as a Canadian goose leads the way. He added it also depicts "harmony" between Canada and the United States. "Justin and Selena joined together symbolizes the great harmony between neighbouring countries Canada and the United States," said spokesman Cory Allen in the press release. "Countries like North Korea and South Korea could learn from our example. It would be nice to exhibit this portrait in the areas of the world where tensions are high between countries that share borders." Although it could be considered controversial, and creepy by some, mainly because Justin Bieber is still 17, Edwards says the nudity has a purpose. In a separate sculpture, he made Bieber's privates "artistically symbolized."

Daniel wanted to "open a dialogue about the exploitation of teen sex symbols as they grow from child stars to adults."

Kim Kardashian's ex-boyfriend wants reconcile


Kim Kardashian's ex-boyfriend has been begging her to get back with him.

Despite splitting from the 30-year-old socialite last year, NFL star Reggie Bush has reportedly been bombarding the brunette beauty - who is due to marry basketball ace Kris Humphries on August 20 - with "text messages and voicemails" attempting to persuade her he's "the one for her".

An insider said: "He's been sending text messages to Kim and leaving her voicemails, telling her she's making a mistake and that he's the one for her.

"In the past, Kim was friendly to Reggie, but now she's stopped responding."
Reggie is said to have been begging Kim to call off her impending nuptials, but the 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star is "burned" by the way their romance ended.

The source added to Life & Style magazine: "He was begging her to call off the wedding and give him another chance. She was burned by the end of their relationship, and she's truly moved on."

Kim made sure to tell Reggie about her whirlwind engagement before it hit headlines.

A friend said at the time: "Reggie was told about Kris and Kim's engagement this past weekend because Kim knew everyone would be contacting him for reaction.

"During their last break-up, Reggie told me Kim may have been the one who got away. He loved her to death."

Daisy Lowe comfortable in underwear

Daisy Lowe is most comfortable in her underwear.

The 22-year-old model - who is set to appear naked in the September edition of iconic men's magazine Playboy - admits she loves dressing in nothing other than lingerie even though she teamed up with French fashion chain Morgan last year for her own range of clothes.

She told Playboy magazine: "It's flattering that men think I could be sexy. I would like it if taking my clothes off made other women feel they can do the same.

"I'm more comfortable in my underwear than anywhere else. You don't have to worry about how to dress your shape. It's just there."

Daisy has recently revealed she has finally come to terms with not having a typical model's shape although she still has insecurities.

She said: "I'm not big in any way, but I do have a womanly shape rather than the normal model size, and so, of course, I'm extremely conscious of it. I'm reminded of it every time I go to work.
"It's taken me seven years to get to the point where I can be comfortable with not being as thin as the rest of them.

"The public can say, 'It's really cool that you're not confirming to this anorexic idea', but then I still have to go and stand next to all of the other girls.

"I'm not saying that I am big, but when you stand next to a beanpole, you're going to look like a massive tree trunk."
