If the latest images of Brit-born David Beckham weren\u2019t enough, Talent Management<\/a> has just discovered that the footballer-turned-male model<\/a> will appear in several locations in the USA for the next few days, by way of nine 10ft tall, near-naked statues! (View below)

David Beckham statue featuring in H&M campaign<\/figcaption><\/figure>The 37-year-old athlete has helped H&M to achieve an 11 per cent rise in total sales in the last month since being photographed modelling<\/a> his new range of bodywear – created in conjunction with the fashion retailer\u2019s designers. Now he has announced his ambition to \u201ckeep it going and establish a brand that will last many years\u201d.<\/p>\n

Beckham and his friends at H&M hope that the statue stunt will give today\u2019s launch a boost before new products are added to the collection later in the year.<\/p>\n

“I’m very happy that so far people seem to like it and the first season was incredibly successful, \u201c he is quoted as saying yesterday. And as a natural team player, his involvement with H&M does seem destined for further success.<\/p>\n
