Well, at least someone still loves David Beckham, despite all his troubles. Babi Das Pelucias, a Brazilian transvestite whose name translates as "Plush Babe", went to great lengths in Rio last week to meet his hero because "he is such a good-looking boy, he is so handsome and beautiful with his lovely hair and sweet face - I just want to meet him as I am sure he would like me, I am beautiful too". Babi turned up at Manchester United's hotel wearing a blonde wig, red stockings, red skirt, red blouse and red gloves in honour of his hero but was denied access to Beckham by beefy, nasty security guards. We're just relieved, for Babi's sake, that it wasn't Roy Keane he fell for because his red stockings would never have survived the crunching tackle from behind.
