David Beckham to be a bronze God in Gays Street

(dailystar.co.uk) - Goldenballs David Beckham looks set to be cast in bronze. He will follow in the footsteps of Gay icon Kylie Minogue to be recreated as a statue on London's Old Compton Street.Gay campaigners are applying for permission to build the statue of LA Galaxy player David, 32, after lengthy meetings discussing their favourite showbiz folk.A source said: "We're planning for the statue of David to be a life-size model of him recreated in bronze."Naturally, the designs at the moment are of him wearing his football kit, looking rugged and rather sexy to say the least."There will be a plaque on the bottom of the statue with all the dates on which he has scored goals for England."It's hoped that the statue will be granted planning permission and the application is being carefully put together now."SassyIf David's statue gets the green light, it will be put alongside pop's finest, Miss Minogue, 39.We reckon David will be bowled over by the news he's to be immortalised in bronze.Pictured here on the December cover of men's mag' Arena, David tops a poll as Britain's most powerful man aged 40 or under.But while there are plans to turn a whole host of other stars into statues on Old Compton Street, there's no plan yet for one of his wife Victoria, 33.But we hear the sassy Spice Girl has been focussing on her own work of art.American reports claim she tried to convince gallery bosses a steamy photo from W Magazine of her in bed with Becks was a work of art - to get a discount.Apparently Posh offered the saucy snap in part-payment for an original nude portrait of 50s screen siren Marilyn Monroe.But the Celebrity Vault gallery in Beverly Hills wanted the full price.Gallery owners were unimpressed by the chance to put the raunchy blow-up of Posh and Becks in their underwear on display.The picture of a naked Marilyn caressing roses is understood to be worth a five-figure sum but has still ended up on the Beckhams bedroom wall. Thoughtful Becks bought it as a surprise present. What a guy...
