David Beckham Emporio Armani Billboard

Longtime ignoring this news has finally caught me. And not because I gave into the charm of the ad’s face or the ad’s brand,links of london necklaces, but because it was too hilarious to pass.
David Beckham’s Macy’s Union Square Park (California USA) Billboard had a particular unveiling ceremony on June 18. The masses awaited the strip tease (even on a billboard) and they were rewarded with a ridiculous show. Because I’m not one of those falling apart over men’s muscle mass or tattoos,oakley sunglasses, I look at this Emporio Armani ad and repeatedly ask myself why this is causing such a stir. I understand a heavy percentage of women consider him outstandingly beautiful. I understand he was a successful football player (now who’s watching usa soccer games besides Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes to tell what’s become of his talent). I can even understand this Emporio Armani ripping off the success story of Calvin Klein underwear. But for how long? And how far?
