I am trying really hard to not get caught up in this Beckham madness but I had to include this pic...David Beckham is hot...even with his clothes on! How many people can actually say that about anyone? His playing debut on Saturday is still in question because of his sore ankle but either way...he's HOT!

In Touch Weekly has released five things no one knew about the Beckhams....did you know???

#1 Before David and Victoria first met in 1997, Posh didn't know who he was, but she had seen pictures. "I remember thinking one word: gorgeous," she said. After finally making it to one of his Manchester United games, she headed straight for him and gave him her number. "When I got home, I wrote her number down on six or seven pieces of paper so I wouldn't lose it," he says. Later, after seeing Posh in the Spice Girls' "Say You'll Be There" video, Becks announced that he had found the woman of his dreams. "I knew that if she wanted me, we would be together forever," he said.

#2 David and Victoria got engaged in 1998 at the Rookery Hall Hotel in Cheshire. He proposed by presenting her with a 3-plus-carat diamond ring reportedly worth $65,000. Then she busted out her own engagement gift — a three-tiered band of 96 diamonds, reportedly valued at $80,000.

#3 Tom and Katie didn't start the idea of getting married in a castle with a baby. David and Victoria had already done it. In 1999, accompanied by their 4-month-old son, Brooklyn, they wed in front of 230 friends and family members at the gothic Luttrellstown Castle outside Dublin, Ireland, in an $800,000 ceremony. There were fireworks, literally, and an 18-piece orchestra playing Spice Girls hits. So they probably didn't play for very long. (Thank you, thank you. We'll be here all night.)

#4 At the Pariwas temple in Bangkok, Thailand, a foot-tall gold statue of David was placed next to the main Buddha and other statues. "Football has become a religion," said senior monk Chan Theerapunyo. Life may be suffering, but say a little prayer to Becks and he'll ease the pain.

#5 Remember that metrosexual craze that kicked off the new century? David Beckham helped get it started, wearing sarongs and nail polish and setting trends with his hairstyle, which included cornrows. "I've got more clothes than Victoria," he says.
