Cruise showing Becks how to deal with American paparazzi


Even as he's getting set to leave Spanish shores and head for the US, David Beckham admitted that he has turned to pal Tom Cruise for advice on how to deal with the paparazzi.

At a press conference, the former England captain revealed that though he and wife Victoria aka Posh Spice were well used to being surrounded by photogs in the UK and Europe, he had still called the Hollywood actor to find out just what kind of a reception the couple were likely to get.

Becks called pal Cruise a "very wise man", and insisted that the actor's advice was going to be a "big help" for when he and his family land on American soil.

"He's a very wise man and a very good friend of mine, and to have his experience, and have him explain some things to me to be prepared for, that's going to be a big help," TMZ.com quoted him, as saying.

And, it seems that all the advice that the Beckhams can get will be helpful, for several prominent paparazzi agencies have revealed that they were getting set to follow the Beckhams' every step when the couple move to the US.

A source revealed that some of the bigger agencies were even planning to send two photogs after the couple on the day they land.

"All the big agencies will probably send a couple of photogs over just for [them]," the source said.
