But apparently Jason Statham and Vinnie Jones are friends in real life. They had lunch at Cafe Med and joked with paparazzi about doing a gay movie together. We think they both look better with shaved heads.
There's one person who's not thrilled or impressed that David Beckham has come to LA to play soccer for the LA Galaxy team. Maybe you could describe Vinnie Jones as a rival of Beckham. Vinnie is a notorious UK soccer player who was famous for playing ROUGH and ended up a tough guy in the movies. Guy Ritchie cast him in "Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels" and an acting career was born. Vinnie, one of our personal favorites, has since moved to Hollywood and is fulfilling Beckham's dream of becoming an actor. Jones hasn't lost his edge - when the subject of Beckham's arrival came up, he snarled "Well, he's only coming to look after Posh's handbag, isn't he?"
