David Beckham Shaving Mishap Sparks Hilarious Reaction From Victoria Beckham

David Beckham taught the whole world that even international style icons have the occasional days of hair horrors. The soccer legend uploaded a video of a hilarious shaving mishap with Victoria Beckham laughing so hard she was almost going to burst; she, however, was not exactly sharing the laugh. The two can be heard arguing in the video; Victoria’s brutal honesty about his new look sent the Internet into a frenzy over the real-life couple. “It looks awful,” she blurted out.

In the clip, a frustrated David is seen mid-shave, and suddenly, a huge chunk of his hair disappears. “What have you done?” he accused, while Victoria was increasingly unsympathetic: “I’m gonna always be honest with you. It looks terrible.” She really did go for it. David captioned it: “ITS NOT FUNNY.” But the internet, especially his kids, just do not seem to agree! He cheekily tagged his kids with a caption about it being content they can tease him with for years to come.

Comments were pouring in immediately, most siding with Victoria’s honesty. Another user said, “Why we love Victoria,” and another jokingly chimed in, “Looks like my old carpet when I dropped the iron on it.” The followers thoroughly relished it, with one commenting, “Slap a bit of kajal pencil on it, you’ll be fine.” Meanwhile, others insisted David could pull off anything. “You’re David Beckham—if you make it fashion, every young lad in Latin America will copy the haircut,” one said in anticipation.

Even the non-English speakers busted him with Spanish ones assuring him, “Everything looks beautiful on you, David.” This mixed roast-and-love format shows Beckham has always retained the charm-factor, either with a slick fade or something that can be considered a failed fade.

Seriously though, that is what makes it so special: a genuine moment. A man who has been considered a sex symbol for so many decades is still not above being kidded by his family. The Beckhams always were celebrities, but moments like those remind us that they really are just another couple with their own bad-hair-cuts bickering.

Honestly, if he went bald a day after this, people would still be calling it trendy. This is the guy who created the cornrow and man-bun craze, after all. So if anything, this mess-up just adds to his accolade. Meaningful takeaway? Life, or sometimes the razor, might throw in some crazy curveballs here and there, but laughter (and sometimes a brutally honest spouse) would be the best medicine to get you through.

While David may be grumbling now, our best guess is, it’ll only be so long before he looks back on this and cracks up. If he doesn’t, well, good enough for us; we got a solid meme! Meanwhile, this clip is likely generating buzz similar to Maria Sharapova and David Beckham’s recent project at Wimbledon!
