David Beckham to become Elle UK's first solo male cover star

So David Beckham is entering the women's magazine world, as a cover star. Yep, Elle UK have confirmed the football player/model/designer will be the title's first male to grace its cover solo. Part of me thinks it's a really cool idea, as Elle UK has previously put male stars on the cover along with a female – such as actors Renee Zellweger and Ewan McGregor – but the cynic on my shoulder thinks why break the mould?

What are your thoughts? Do you think he should be venturing into his wife's territory, or stick to what he does best, on his own turf?
