My Celebrity Valentine

If I could have a celebrity valentine, who would he be and why?

My celebrity valentine, if I could it would be David Beckham; he makes me hot! I am not a fan of soccer per say. I am his fan! He stands out, as a celebrity sport, celebrity sport is a bit different.

There's a healthy and positive attitude that can influence people. In many cases, sports celebrity influences children and teenagers to pursue that precise sport for the hope one day to be successful as their icon.

A celebrity sport as Beckham transmits an image of a healthy lifestyle athletic married with children, in his case married to Victoria posh spice "Spice Girls". Victoria is a celebrity, a somewhat an icon for young girls. They became a powerful couple in the paparazzi world. " Beckham is the single most over rated player in the sport's history."

He has charisma that it is depicted in the movie "Bend it like Beckham." In the movie, the girl wants to play like her idol. She had posters in her room and talked to him.

The skill to bend a ball around a goalie during penalty kicks; some might say that any player can do that. Yet, not every player has "the charisma."

Beckham is the face of "recognizable as that of multinational companies like Coca-Cola and IBM." His looks got attention from many female fans. He got my attention during the world cup.

Beckham's accomplishments throughout his career are very impressive. He gives back to the community involved in many charitable works around the world as well.

In 2005, Beckham became a Goodwill Ambassador with a special focus on UNICEF's Sports for Development program. Beckham founded theDavid Beckham Academy football school, operating from two sites: in London and in Los Angeles, California. Further sites are planned at Cabo São Roque in Natal, Brazil, and in Asia.

Despite all of these accomplishments, fans and the paparazzi focus on his looks, his life and his latest photos as the Armani underwear photos.

Yes, Beckham is the Celebrity Valentine that I'd dream to have, due to his many accomplishments in his career. He still transmits a down to earth attitude guy. He does well as a model, the face of Emporio Armani's underwear campaign, and an athlete with tattoos.
