A little birdie told me that David Beckham has recently wrapped up a global television and print advertising shoot in Los Angeles for Sharpie markers.

The TV spot, set to air in select markets around the world beginning July 15, shows Beckham using a Sharpie to autograph a variety of unusual items for fans, but when the time comes to return the Sharpie to its owner, Beckham resists. Dum dum DUM! Reminds me of our T-shirts in the shop "not without my sharpie!" Once you go Sharpie, you never go back you know. ;)

Here's a shot from the shoot (say that ten times fast) where Beckham high fives another actor.
