Becks not famous enough for The Simpsons

David Beckham reportedly failed to make it onto The Simpsons for lack of sufficient fame.
The producers of the smash hit show with the unmistakeable quiffs did not feel Beckham had the star wattage for what was only to be a cameo, according to the UK Daily Mirror.
Al Jean, an executive producer, said: “I had to phone David Beckham to tell him sorry – I didn’t think he was a big enough star for an American audience.”
Beckham’s evolving hair of late would have put him in the running for the show, however. In a related development the very instantly famous Jedward was said to be under consideration. Jean conceded that there was no consensus on Beckham, who has resided in the US since 2007 under his soccer contract with LA Galaxy. He brought with him a very famous wife in former Spice Girl, Victoria.
Said Jean: “I got a lot of grief about that. Some people got angry about it and told me, ‘I bet you would have put George Best on’. But I would have turned him down too.”
UK celebs that have made it on include Ricky Gervais, Emily Blunt and Simon Cowell.
