  • Story Text: It may have been just five days before the start of the new premier league season but Manchester United midfielder David Beckham had other things on his mind at a London record
    store on Monday (August 14).

    Beckham accompanied his pop star wife, Victoria, for a record-signing session to
    promote her debut solo effort.

    Victoria, better known as Posh Spice, was also joined by Another Level's Dane
    Bowers, who produced the single "Out of Your Mind" but it was her shaven-headed
    husband who stole the show.

    Hysterical young fans formed a scrum for his autograph, many of them reduced to
    tears after a close encounter with their heartthrob.

    Quite what Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson will make of it all is
    another matter. Beckham's celebrity lifestyle has seen him at odds with the
    tough-talking Scot in the past.

    Mrs Beckham refused to confirm rumours that David sang backing vocals on the
    single -- Beckham himself seems far more at home tormenting opposing defenders
    at Old Trafford on a Saturday afternoon.

    Manchester United begin the defence of their title with a home game against
    Newcastle United on Saturday, by which time Victoria will also be hoping to be a
    number one again.
