Most people would be ecstatic to look half as good as David Beckham does on those enormous, half-naked billboards. But for the soccer star, it just makes him uncomfortable.

Check out the most-talked-about star bodies of 2009

"I still feel quite shy when I see a poster or campaign like that," he tells 10 magazine of his steamy ads, most notably his Emporio Armani underwear campaign.

He adds, "It was a daunting experience stripping off in front of a room of people but after a while you get used to it -- although my mum still hasn't."

Although the 34-year-old athlete maintains that his "priority has always been my football career over anything else," he does admit to having fun getting photographed.

"I've done quite a few shoots and you can have fun doing them," he says. "I'm a footballer and that's where I'm most comfortable, but I've enjoyed working with some great photographers over the years."

    that's definitely stuffed with tissue papers, look at the bulge and you will notice...I think he has got a wee one, would believe he was massive if he was Irish.

    He is one fine looking man and if he really feels shy about seeing himself half naked on billboards he wouldn't be posing in the underwears. He knows he likes posing like that and I don't mind seeing that fine looking body of his..Muah!
