David Beckham has a baby girl on the way and is starting a new business venture – he’s going to be releasing a bodywear line and his own men’s fragrance. And of course his business partner Simon Fuller is in on all of this too.
I’m a little worried how this is going to smell. Think about it.
For the bodywear if you buy it and put it on will you then have the body of David Beckham (hot) or Victoria Beckham (her body is mostly plastic so I’m not sure if it counts yet). One thing I know for sure the body wear line will probably cost a small fortune per piece so I will stick to my VS stuff.
Now as far as the men’s fragrance goes I have to wonder what it will smell like… There are some men’s fragrances that I cannot get enough of and will get me to talk to any man wearing it. However as David Beckham has made himself known by being a sweaty soccer player is this going to smell like a sweaty man? Because that is not hot whatsoever. His fragrance is going to be called Homme.
Wait. I almost forgot, David Beckham released a statement about his upcoming ventures: “I have had the idea of doing a bodywear collection for some time now,” Beckham tells WWD. “[Emporio Armani] told me that their gross turnover in 2007 was around 16 million euros [$22.7 million at current exchange] and after the campaign in 2008 it went up to 31 million euros [$43.9 million] in 2008. It proved to me that there is a real market for good-looking, well-made men’s bodywear.”
