Before Sending Box of 50 Undies to Barack Obama, ‘Rare Man’ David Beckham’s ‘Line of Underwear’ Was Joked Upon by Ex-President of USA

With a career that spanned over two decades, David Beckham has left an indelible mark on the sport and has become synonymous with success and style. However, one peculiar accomplishment that sets Beckham apart from his peers is that his underwear line was worn by none other than former US President Barack Obama. And in a humorous twist, Obama even joked about Beckham’s foray into the world of undergarments.

Currently, Beckham remains actively involved in the sports industry as the owner of Inter Miami. Even in the absence of Lionel Messi, his team recently pulled off a 3-2 win against Sporting KC. But to grasp the incident on hand, we must journey back 11 years ago to 2012.

Barack Obama once trolled David Beckham for his underwear line

2012 proved to be quite eventful for Beckham. Not only did he lead the LA Galaxy to victory in Major League Soccer (MLS), but he also had the honor of carrying the Olympic torch during the London Olympics. Amidst these achievements, Beckham also launched an exclusive underwear collection in collaboration with the renowned fashion brand H&M.

However, no one could have predicted that Beckham’s underwear line would become the subject of a joke by none other than the former President of the United States. Following their triumph in the MLS, the LA Galaxy team visited the White House for the customary winners’ ceremony. It was during this visit that Barack Obama took the opportunity to playfully tease Beckham.

In his speech, Obama introduced the Manchester United legend as a “young up-and-comer on the team.” The hilarious remarks only continued from here on, along with some praises. “Last year at the age of 36, David had his best year in MLS, leading the team with 15 assists, “ the former president continued. “He did it despite fracturing his spine halfway through the season and injuring his hamstring a week before the championship game”.

Obama further added, “He is tough. In fact, he’s a rare man who can be that tough on the field and also have his own line of underwear”. This lighthearted comment elicited hearty laughter from the audience, including Beckham himself. Beckham’s underwear line has received significant attention and admiration. It is worth noting that even Barack Obama is a great admirer of these undergarments.

But none are as light-hearted and amusing as seeing his line of underwear being worn and joked about by former US President Barack Obama.
