David Beckham counts Singapore among his favourite places to visit

David Beckham’s professional career in football has long faded away in the past, but he still remains one of the most marketable athletes in the football world, earning millions from brand endorsements. 

What does one do with all that money? Travel the world, of course — and apparently the football and fashion icon has a soft spot for Singapore, according to a recent interview with British Airways. 

When asked about his favourite place to visit, he counts the likes of Paris, New York, Los Angeles and as his top destinations. “…but I also like Singapore (I love staying at Marina bay Sands)” he remarked. 

Then again, of course he would say that — he’s the front-and-centre ambassador for the Marina Bay Sands’ glitzy multi-million dollar regional campaign. Folks will remember that commercial depicting him in the throes of luxury at Marina Bay Sands, asking you to “Never settle”. Of course you can’t settle for less, you’re frickin’ David Beckham.
