Tuck thyself in, Beckham!
David Beckham arrived at the AFI Fest opening night gala looking like he'd just had a roll in the hay with his beloved, Posh Spice. Usually so dapper, Beckham looked more hobo science teacher than millionaire style icon, with his buttoned-up Argyle cardigan, dull tie, plaid trucker shirt, and shirttails flapping in the breeze. Only thing missing was a packet of Bali Shag rolling tobacco sticking out his jeans pocket.
We don't understand. Untucked shirts are so...2004. Perhaps his sloppiness was a sign of rebellion? A studied attempt to contrast the soberly-suited film executives? Or is he merely depressed, after Galaxy lost its crucial end-of-season match last week?
We can forgive Beckham his missed opportunities on the soccer field. But messy layering? Never.
