Beckham Makes Big Debut, Readies For TomKat Party

David Beckham made a low-key start to his highly anticipated US football career last night, playing for only 12 minutes in a 1-0 loss to the English Premiere power, Chelsea.

With Becks off the field for most of the game, much attention was paid to the high profile stars gracing the stands of the Home Depot Center. Among those, David’s pop-star wife Victoria was joined in a VIP corporate box by gal pals Eva Longoria and Katie Holmes.

Other attendees of the game, for which tickets were reportedly being sold on the black market for up to $2,000, included Mary Kate Olsen, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Alicia Silverstone and Arnold Schwarzenegger.

The game itself was fairly uneventful, besides a late scare for Beckham fans when “the midfielder was brought down heavily by a clumsy challenge from Chelsea substitute Steve Sidwell, before rising to his feet and shrugging off the pain.”

After a good night’s sleep, it’s off to a TomKat hosted welcome party for David and Vic - Hollywood’s newest movers and shakers.
