female reporter ambushed David Beckham in Milan and tweaked his groin.

MotherForTruth
The former England captain, who is on loan to AC Milan from the Los Angeles Galaxy, was giving an interview outside a hotel when Elena Di Cioccio bent down and squeezed him between the legs.

The stunt was a “test” to see whether the football star measured up to his photo in Armani billboards, in which he shows off his impressive physique in a pair of tight-fitting underpants.

Beckham looked shocked and immediately backed away after being touched by the blonde-haired TV reporter, a star of the satirical show Le Iene (The Hyenas).

As security guards closed ranks around the 34-year-old midfielder, Miss Di Cioccio was chased down the street yelling “E piccolo, Beckham” (“Beckham is small”), while being filmed by the show’s cameraman.

Beckham climbed into a black car but she ran around to the driver’s seat in which he was sitting, shouting: “You’ve taken us for a ride! How could you? David!”

The Hyenas is broadcast on Italia1, a channel owned by Mediaset, Silvio Berlusconi’s media empire. The Italian prime minister also owns AC Milan.

Beckham was being interviewed by a second blonde television presenter when the stunt took place.

Asked what he liked about Milan, he said in English: “Everything. People have been incredible to me around the city.”

    • Well, I, too would call it an assault. But it was done by a tv personality for a comedy-satire show, which makes it more understandable than just some stranger feeling him up on her own. Kinda like some of the stuff Borat has done...........

      But if it was me, I'd take her to court.

    • a male reporter would not have been a serious issue with Beckham...plus he knows what 'tweaked' is as opposed to any other act of.....a fan!.

    • Odd that an Italian woman would do this in public. Crass men have been doing this in Italy for ages.
      It should always be considered illegal for any sex to do this to another human being. Then to degrade herself even more by verbally castrating him....what a tart!
      Now I have no idea what kind of TV show he's in is..... but regardless assault and battery sound appropriate to me for charges against this woman.

    • Not to in any way defend the practice, but men do grab and slap women on the bottoms quite regularly. That being said, this looks like assault.

    • How would the media and public respond if a man ambushed a woman and grabbed her breast to see if there is an implant, and he would publicly announce there where fakes?

      How funny would that be for women around the world? How would media respond? Would this man be charged with sexual harassment?
