Beckham's babies bring Spice Girls together

      Washington: After the "Spice Girls" had a very public fall out a few years ago, they are now ready to reunite at the christening ceremony of David and Victoria Beckham's two sons. The high profile ceremony will be take place later this month at the Beckham's Hertfordshire, England mansion. Liz Hurley and Elton John have been named as the children's godparents, reports ratethemusic.com. "All of the Spice Girls have accepted their invitations and Victoria and David are looking forward to seeing them. Mel is going to the christening with her partner Thomas Starr and she is really looking forward to it," the report quoted an insider. "Geri's looking forward to the christening and seeing the other girls. She's bought the boys very special gifts, but I can't say what," said a spokesperson for Geri Halliwell.

Beckham is furious with Posh Spice (Go To Top)

      Washington: Soccer superstar David Beckham is allegedly upset with his wife Victoria because she has chosen veteran singer Sir Elton John and actress Elizabeth Hurley as their son Brooklyn's godparents, instead of members of his family. The former Spice Girl has also picked her brother Christain and sister Louise as their other child Romeo's godparents. The Real Madrid midfielder is, therefore, furious as his blood relations have no official role in their sons' lives. "You have to ask yourself why Elton and Elizabeth have been asked to be godparents when David's own flesh and blood have been excluded. The Beckhams had the same treatment as total strangers, with a formal invitation coming through the post without even a personal note on it," Star magazine quoted an insider as saying. David's father Ted, however, said, "There isn't any rift. I'll be going to the christening. I don't mind if I'm not a godparent. It doesn't bother me if they want Elton John or Elizabeth Hurley."

Becks inspired festive message to UK troops in Iraq (Go To Top)

      London: England soccer skipper David Beckham has recorded an inspirational message for British soldiers stationed in Iraq, which will be broadcast on the New Year's Eve. "It is something that David really wanted to do. He hasn't had the best of years, but he knows what he's been through is nothing compared to what the men and women in the forces have had to contend with," Femalefirst quoted a source as saying. David will discuss a variety of subjects, including his marriage with Victoria, besides his role as a father to his two sons - Brooklyn and Romeo. "The message will be broadcast to the armed forces around the world. Every year, we try and get a celebrity to say a few words of encouragement to the troops and David was fantastic," a spokesman for the British Forces Broadcasting Services Radio said. "Like the rest of the country, David really appreciates what they are doing across the world for us. And when he was approached about doing this, he leapt at the chance. His thoughts will be with them and their families, especially at this time of year," revealed an insider.

"I might go to Bangladesh with Oxfam and then explore into India. When I'm not working, the first couple of weeks are fantastic, then towards the end of the first month I start to have anxiety attacks. I get bored, I feel stale," Femalefirst quoted her as saying.

      London: Nicole Kidman's film producer boyfriend Steve Bing has reportedly written a romantic love song for her about their first Christmas as a couple. "I know we'll be jolly, stuff turkey and wave mistletoe. Even better with friends than flying it solo. Me? I'll do it with this seasonal chick. She's a cool cat. Untie the bow and welcome the other Saint Nic," wrote Bing, who is the father of actress Liz Hurley's two-year-old son Damien. According to Femalefirst, Nicole has hired a 20,000 pounds-a-week villa at Sydney's Palm Beach and invited Bing to spend Christmas and New Year with her and her children, Isabella and Conor. The 'Cold Mountain' star has been dating Bing for the past three months.
