...to think that the David Beckham in his pants advert

is wrong on so many levels it's an embarrassment.
I mean, pulling your pants out of your arse in public. Especially when the said butt cheek is a little pallid in comparison to the rest of your body and you've got enough money for fake tan to cover every inch of your body.
And seriously standing in the street with your crotch bulge a-dangling as if to say I've got some balls and they weigh more than a pound.
It's not as if the pants are ornately decorated, in fact they look a bit tight and faded like they've been through a hot wash with the kids PE kit.
Are we seriously expected to rush out and purchase Beckham pants for the DH/DP off the back of that? Or does David think all men aspire to wear pants that ride up their arse when they run down the drive to catch the bin men before they miss the recycling wagon.
Patronising twoddle or what?

my DH arse wouldn't look like Davids in any pants Grin I agree with you though its all a bit cringy

landofsoapandglory · 21/02/2013 10:03

I agree. I can not abide DB and I will not ever buy pants with his name on, especially as they are cheap shit from H&M but £12.99 a pair because he thinks we are all idiots and will buy into the brand!

mrsjay · 21/02/2013 10:04

I wouldnt but a celebs bra and pants either so no I dont think DH would want to wear DB pants i suspect some young trendy lad will though

mrsjay · 21/02/2013 10:04

buy*

KellyElly · 21/02/2013 10:05

It's all meant to be a bit tongue-in-cheek isn't it? Anyway, I biased as I have fancied Beckham since I was a teenager :)

mumblechum1 · 21/02/2013 10:06

Oh, is that what he was advertising

HollyBerryBush · 21/02/2013 10:06

Its not him - look at the running scene where he has his back to the camera - no tattoos on his arms - his arms are covered in the god awful things. He's only doing the face shots

TheCatIsUpTheDuff · 21/02/2013 10:06

Maybe I need to watch it again, just to make sure.

landofsoapandglory · 21/02/2013 10:08

My trendy young lads don't want to, mrsjay, but then DS1(18) really does not like DB either!

I caught sight of the advert on a screen in the Gare du Midi last weekend. I was slightly distracted, tripped over and fell flat on my face. Blush

I like it. Makes a change from scantily clad women that make me feel fat and frumpy - DH feels like I do for a change.

wednesdaygirl · 21/02/2013 20:45

Dh was chatting to me when i first saw the ad and i was like Shock while i blocked the noise of dh out Wink

Dont like DB as such but i do like a good body mmmmmmmmmmSmile

Foggles · 21/02/2013 20:48

It looks like you have studied it well, OP Grin

ArtemisiaGentileschisThumb · 21/02/2013 20:49

I don't want my DH constantly oiking his pants out of his arse so will not be buying these.

BallyGoBackwards · 21/02/2013 21:08

Never thought I would like looking at someone hoiking their wedgy out of their arse but there you go!!!!
