Prince Beckham?




While he hasn't officially moved to the States yet, and it still remains to be seen how well his soccer will fair in light of his supposed Hollywood ambitions, it seems that David Beckham is already charging the gates...of Disney that is. In a new ad campaign featuring the slogan "Disney Parks: Where Dreams Come True", the soccer superstar is among a number of famous faces dressed as classic Disney characters in photos taken by the uber-acclaimed photographer, Annie Leibovitz. Beckham portrays the valiant Prince Philip from Sleeping Beauty, atop a white horse bearing sword and shield in the face of the fire-breathing dragon (though the dragon is not visible). Beyonce and Scarlett Johansson, among others, are featured as part of Disney's Year of a Million Dreams. You can check out all the beautiful photographs here. Becks admittedly pulls off the dashing prince thing well, but does this mean we have to refer to Victoria as "Princess Posh" from now on?
