We’ve been had by Snoop and Becks

OK, so, I had fallen head over heels for this burgeoning friendship between Snoop Dogg and David Beckham. I mean, man, Snoop Dogg is friends with David Beckham? How unlikely and unique! And wow, Becks even gave Snoop’s kids private soccer lessons? Cool. But news flash everyone: we’ve been totally, totally had on the latter.

You see, as the above clip shows, this relationship seems to be nothing more than a cleverly crafted PR shtick — one that appeared on Snoop’s reality show. Oh wait, you guys brought slippers out to the pitch? How silly! Why here, why don’t you have some of these nice, new Adidas boots. (Wink, wink.)

Now, I’m willing to concede that Snoop and Becks probably do enjoy each other’s company and pal around a bit. But this whole thing with the soccer lessons followed by a trip to Roscoe’s? This whole cherade was written by some dude that works at E!

Sigh.
