Beckham Up-Braided

‘POOR Kenny Jamieson, the teenager who was suspended from school for having his hair braided to look like David Beckham.

Christina Aguilera was the first to copy Becks’ new hairstyle

He will now have to come up with a new style if he is to emulate the England captain, who has got bored of his cornrows almost as soon as having them.

The Star shows the 28-year-old on a shopping trip in New York with his hair pulled back in a ponytail, immediately scuppering various plans to cash in on the midfielder’s fame.

Bosses at Madame Tussaud’s in Hong Kong will have to do some hasty remodelling after unveiling a waxwork of Goldenballs with his arm in plaster and his hair in braids.

And Somerfield have had to shelve plans to produce a 20in loaf, with braids like Becks’ as part of its So Good range.

A Somerfield spokesman said: ”He changes his hairstyle more often than some people change their underpants.”

This is, by our reckoning, Beckham’s fourth hairstyle of the year. If any of you out there are still only onto your third pair of underpants of 2003, shame on you!
