Michu is somewhere under his Swansea team-mates, we think. Image: Action Images. Hope everyone has recovered from the madness that was this weekend! We personally are in serious need of some vitamins after seeing so many cramped legs, wet hair-dos and yellow cards.Lest we forget a few curious 'transfer' rumours, too.
We must warn you, there's a bit of an inspirational feel to our weekly round-up here, Kickettes.
Seriously. We found a picture of a player reading a magazine and everything! GOOD WEEK Image via

Foul-mouthed chef, crying child handler and court side seat sitter, Gordan Ramsay, recently opened
up about the trials and tribulations of his marriage, family and businesses, and surprisingly he
credited he and wife Tana's Los Angeles bezzies, David and Victoria, for helping them through the
past few rough years.
"He is tough, it's a rare man who can be that tough on the field and also have his own line of
underwear."
The fact that the President of the United States is compelled to think about David Beckham's
pants when he meets him makes us feel a little better about our own response towards those
ads.
In another case of old relationships coming back to haunt you, Danny Simpson's baby mamma Stephanie (who claims to be pregnant with their second child) has accused him of cheating on her with pop songstress, sex tapestress and X Factor judgestress, Tulisa, towards the end of their relationship. Separately, Krystal Benjamin (his alleged side, side [.
We know we post a lot on Victoria Beckham and her family, but with news gems that give us an excuse to flashback to '06 filtering through our inbox, how can we resist? We adore the Posh one, and her about face embrace of the WAG manifesto. Hence, two notable VB quotables you should be [...]

Feu de Bois in the air, Victoria Beckham showed her Spring 2013 collection at the New York Public
Library yesterday morning.
Images: X17Online. In case you missed it and how could you? Victoria Beckham went out in public
wearing a tracksuit (probably made of the finest cashmere, but whatever) and neon trainers (heel
height in inches: zero) over the weekend. You know that old saying, "the wheels are coming off",
Kickettes?
A little over a month ago when we first heard of the supposed 'super injunction' rumours concerning
David Beckham and Katherine Jenkins, we didn't bother covering it. As much as we love to write
about non-stories like WAGs with carb-faces, 'ballers in go-karts and handbags, we truly didn't
ever see this one turning into a story.
Our bish, please detectors have been in a fantastic frenzy since last week, when we first heard of
the rumoured rift between Victoria Beckham and the soon-to-be-ex Mrs Tom Cruise supposedly caused
by a New York Fashion Week scheduling conflict. Not because we didn't believe these "former
friends" have really parted ways, as Katie Nicholl [.
Victoria Beckham got back in touch with her musical roots to join her former bandmates at this
morning's launch of Viva Forever, a new musical based on the Spice Girls. The ladies were at
Pancras Renaissance Hotel in full on half smiles, and, most importantly, no one fell over. Good
times were had yet again.
When Victoria Beckham helped launch the GREATÂ Campaign during Fashion Week in February, she looked
like the walking dead. Soz, VB, but Fashion Week with little Harper on hand couldn't have been
easy. The GREAT Campaign is designed to promote Britain abroad and Victoria is leading the charge
by looking charmingly adorable and well-rested.

Even though it's late on Friday, we just had to share this story of Vicky B as told by
the woman herself to Vanity Fair forgetting to pack an essential during a school run.
"I got up in the morning, and I knew that I had a whole morning full of conference calls.
This past week, David Beckham turned 37-years-old two days before Sex Fabregas celebrated his
25th b-day with girlfriend, Daniella Semaan, Leo Messi and Antonella Roccuzzo (who, from the photos
we saw, was with wine glass throughout the evening). Even though it freaks all of us out (David
included) to think of you both aging, a belated congratulations guys!
Victoria Beckham turns 38 today and we're severely unsure of how we feel about it.
Why should we fight our tepid feelings when we can waste time drawing comparisons between VB and
her second oldest, Romeo, based on their baby pictures instead?
We injured ourselves yawning this morning, which means that despite a fantastic name and an
idiot-proof promise, we won't be trying the anti-spill beer contraption anytime soon.

to a game of Red Rover, Guti's girl Romina was hired by Herbal Essences and Cesc drove a
PUMA-donated Ferrari to practice (while shooting a commercial, there's a Formula 1 tie-in there
somewhere).
On Friday we started a new diet that only allowed us gin and tonics for 48 hours straight.
All in all, it was the first diet we ever seriously stuck to and as a result, we lost two whole
days!
Saturday
- Football pundit and former Strictly Come Dancing participant, Robbie Savage, announced via
Twitter that his hero and best friend his father had passed away at the age of 64.
The idea of being spoon-fed fruit by a loving Alex Pato is not one that appeals to us in any
way, so absolutely no hissy-fits, wailing and sounds of hip-flasks being hastily located and opened
were heard when we saw this image.
Oh, we're all going to hell anyway, so why would one more huge lie matter?
Image: Fame Flynet. Victoria Beckham wore flats again on a stroll through Universal City and plenty of who-cares-what-they-think gossipers are weighing in on the issue. This fashion factoid, coupled with her incredible shrinking woman status, is even considered a "top story"in Us Magazine's apocalyptic world.
Image:Â Rcf/Bauer Griffin. Footy stars buying their own produce? It's normally a 'do', dear
readers. You know, Celebs! They're just like us! and all that good stuff. But David Beckham and
other footy stars of his calibre buying their own produce whilst wearing socks with sandals? It's a
definite do-not-pass-go-and-give-us-the-100-quid-you've-wrongly-collected 'don't'.
Images: Twitter, Facebook. Which pair of former starting XI teammates pulls off the "reunited and
it looks so good" mood best: old Liverpool partners-on-field, Xabi Alonso & Steven Gerrard, or
Becksillas (of Real-ly Hot Madrid fame)? Now, on to more important issues. Like when did David
Beckham's forehead totally give up on fighting the early [.
Whilst Romeo, Brooklyn and Cruz form some kind of open-mouthed, consonant-loving supergroup, we'd
like to take a minute out of your day to talk about David Beckham's mustache. He's been growing his
five, six and seven o'clock shadows out for awhile, but this handlebar nonsense is a bigger
letdown than waiting months for your favourite singer's [.

know, the fun is mainly in the details. Exhibit A: David Beckham admitting he has a fetish for
snacking on that cutie patootie baby sundae of his. Harper does have a scrum-diddly-umptious set of
chubby wubby legs, doesn't she?
Image: Getty Images For H&M. We know, we know. So much has been happening in the world of football
and we've posting items as frequently as, well, as very backasswards neglectful blog posterettes

Ibrahim Affellay and a pack of his Barca teammates headed to the DSquared store in Milan earlier
today.
There's some serious weirdness going on in the world of football, Kickettes, and this time it's
got nothing to do with our staffers and their nefarious nocturnal activities.
The Beckhams' youngest was spotted banishing inanimate objects from her presence this past weekend and everyone is talking about it. Because, well, no one has anything better to do, obviously. Image: FameFlynet.
Looks as though yesterday's boys group outing to the Women's Beach Volleyball final was more of a
"daddy wants us to do something cultural and we're not happy about it" kind of evening.
Moments after this photo was taken, this cabin crew member unclipped Mrs B's safety harness,
folded her up and locked her in an overhead luggage compartment, where she spent the rest of her
flight to China.
There are photos** of this as it happened, but strangely, Vicky chose not to tweet them.
David and Victoria's eldest turned 13-years-old over the weekend an age that typically brings an
end to a child's I-don't-mind-kissing-my-dad-on-the-lips-whilst-taking-a-ride-on-his-shoulders
era.
The whole family celebrated Brooklyn's coming of age on Sunday, which started with a boys-only
outing to the LA Lakers game (they ate nachos, chatted up Denzel Washington)Â followed by a "huge
party" at the Beckham compound.
