News from the Beckhams

Hey, if Kobe leaves, this may be our next best bet. The happy couple haven't even arrived in town, but already David and Victoria (especially Victoria) seem ready to set up shop. They're teaming up with Scottish super-chef Gordon Ramsay on a new L.A.-area restaurant (Ramsay is already working on a place at West Hollywood's The London hotel that's set to open early next year). The former Spice Girl apparently insists that the place have lots of vegetarian options. No details on the financing, other than it will be some sort of joint venture. Meanwhile, it looks like Beckham will be missing two or three games from the Galaxy to play on England's national team.
