David Beckham's Star-Studded L.A. Soccer Debut
Katie Holmes and Suri Cruise joined Victoria Beckham -- and a slew of other celebs -- to watch David Beckham's American soccer debut with the Los Angeles Galaxy on Saturday night at the Home Depot Center in Carson, California.
According to People.com, cheerleaders like Eva Longoria, Mary-Kate Olsen, Brooke Shields, Alicia Silverstone, Jennifer Love Hewitt and Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger showed up to check out the game.
Amid fears that an ankle injury would sideline Becks during his first game, the superstar did indeed play – about 77 minutes into the exhibition match against Chelsea. (Chelsea won, 1-0.) Regardless, the sold-out stadium crowd erupted in cheers even when Beckham simply stood up from the bench and began stretching.
The following day, the Cruises and Will and Jada Pinkett Smith threw a "Welcome to L.A." private gala bash for the Beckhams at the Museum of Contemporary Art in downtown Los Angeles. Again, People.com reports a Hollywood "Who's Who" scene that included Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher, Brooke Shields and husband Chris Henchy, Jim Carrey and Jenny McCarthy, Bruce Willis, newlywed Eva Longoria (without Tony Parker), Ron Howard, Brian Grazer and Quincy Jones.
And despite the swollen ankle, Becks managed to give Posh a few twirls on the dance floor. var addthis_pub = '2U9RDAJGX0LUQCPT';
