It's a scene played out in shopping centres across the country every weekend, reluctant male is dragged around the shops by spouse only to be asked 'Does my bum look big in this?'.

Except on this occasion the man is multi-millionaire footballer David Beckham and his publicity hungry wife Victoria.

Reluctant shopper: A glum-looking David Beckham doesn't look too overjoyed as he accompanies wife Posh on another shopping trip

Football ace David didn't crack a smile as he trailed wife Posh around an exclusive West Hollywood boutique so the designer clothes lover could stock up on yet more clothes.

Glum-looking David looked as if he'd rather be anywhere else but there, as he waited, arms folded, patiently for Posh to finish her shopping session.

Still saddled with a nagging ankle injury, the 32-year-old missed another practice session at the Home Depot Center to receive "more treatment and rehab" said a team spokesman.

But he clearly had little excuse to miss another jaunt to the shops.

Could the high-profile life the Beckhams have opted for be wearing on the football professional somewhat already?

However, he managed to raise a smile when the couple bumped into rapper and actress Queen Latifah. The self-professed fan of rap music who counts P-Diddy and Snoop Dogg among his friends was clearly chuffed to meet her royal rap highness.

So was Victoria by the look of it, who greeted the voluptuous star with the requisite LA air-kiss.

David has kept his promise to keep fans posted with news of his family's move to LA and recently updated his online blog.

He expressed his appreciation for the kindness of Hollywood friends Tom Cruise, and Katie Holmes, and Will Smith and wife Jada Pinkett-Smith, who the Beckhams a lavish welcome to LA bash last weekend.

He wrote: "'I'd like to say a big thank you to a couple of our good friends out here who threw an amazing party for Victoria and myself on Sunday night.

"It really was a fantastic evening and meeting so many people made us both feel incredibly welcome."

David also added that he and wife Victoria, 33, are 'settling in nicely' in LA.

Guess he hadn't been shopping yet!
