Brangelina Who? Paparazzi Prepare for Beckhams

David and Victoria BeckhamDavid and Victoria Beckham might not be household names in the U.S. just yet, but they will be very, very soon.

TMZ talked to several prominent paparazzi agencies, and they all agreed that the Beckhams will be getting very special (and relentless) photographic attention from the minute they hit our shores. Said one well-placed source, "All the big agencies will probably send a couple of photogs over just for [them]." Another respected lensman told us that the couple's friendship with TomKat will only make them more visible targets for shutterbugs, and that they'll be at least as eagerly watched as Brangelina, if not more.

Of course, the Beckhams being the Beckhams, they're more than used to it. In the UK, they're more furiously hounded than the royal family, and far more than any other celeb couple.

No one is more used to having literally every part of his body scrutinized by the media as David Beckham: When he broke his left foot before the World Cup in 2002, newspapers and TV ran daily, almost hourly updates on his status, and a leading psychic urged the entire country to "will" Beckham's foot to health. And he played!

33. David Beckham is cute, but all of that gets lost when he opens his mouth. I can't stand that British accent.

35. Tom and Katie ( or Kate as Tom says we should call her ) have a strange group of friends. They have this wedding and invite some people to Italiy and a second wedding for the America friends - who I guess were not invited to the first wedding-but all their friends are rich so why two weddings well thats another story......anyway I say that because TomKat invited those Brits to both. And now Kate C. and Victoria B. are BFF, when did that happen? Maybe thay are doing Tom a favor, the media will focus on the new hot couple and take the light off of them, and so tom can have time to school Kate how to handle the baby and speak to the baby and learn to walk two steps behind him when is walking with the baby etc. I think this the end of Katie ( sorry Tom ) Kate's lifeas she has known it , the next movie that baby will be headed to college !!! As for me, Ive got to go back to the blog where The Donald and Rosie are , that drama is going on and on . Peace and Love :)

36. Ah ha! The comments on this article atre10 times funnier than the acticle itself.
I love how everyone has an opinion but no one knows a thing about them! Do your research America! Posh and Becks (who will always been called that and nothing else) are used to handling enough paparazzi in a single morning to fill Britney, Paris and Lindsay's diaries for months!!!
One thing is true though - you won't hear too much about them as most of the stories will go to the UK and Europe!
Oh yeah and while you're at it - do your research on Robbie Williams too!

40. Ahoy there mates!! I think its great that he's finally be the only f***er to turn on the whole football thing out here in the states. Its a world wide sport and its actually sad that America hasnt twigged onto it. F***ing hell, Im hopping my man, Wayne Rooney makes it over her aswell.

Welcome Posh N Beck's tip from a real live LA native; Dont drink the water in Santa Monica.
