"It's a huge honor," Beckham, 40, told People of being handed
the title on its 30th anniversary. "I'm very pleased to accept."
The soccer legend and husband of pop star and fashion designer
Victoria Beckham has long been known for his chiseled good
looks.
He has been featured in advertisements for Pepsi, Adidas, and
modeled underwear for Giorgio Armani, but the sportsman and
father of four told People he has never thought of himself as
"an attractive, sexy person."
"I mean I like to wear nice clothes and nice suits and look and
feel good, but I don't ever think of myself that way," he said.
Beckham's wife, Victoria, 41, was supportive of his new title,
he said.
"I would hope that she feels this way about me all the time
anyway," he told People.
