Pride of Britain Awards - What do David Beckham and Simon Cowell have in common?
Wednesday, 1 October 2008
David Beckham and Simon Cowell might have more in common than you think.
Both men are highly successful at what they do, represent England in the United States and have loads of money.
Some people would even say they are both good looking, but Simon Cowell isn't quite in the same league as Beckham.
Simon and David are both big supporters of the Pride of Britain Awards and try to go to the awards every year.
The X Factor judge really looks forward to the night that celebrates the unsung heroes of Britain.
He says: "These awards are far superior to the Brits and Baftas. I genuinely believe it's the best award ceremony of the year.
"It makes you realise exactly what life is about and what people have to overcome."
David Beckham admits: "I'm always delighted to take part in the Pride of Britain Awards. The winners are always amazing, particularly the little children.
"I think the bravery and courage they show is an example to us all."
His wife Victoria agrees: "The people who get these awards are just amazing. It's so emotional I was thinking about wearing waterproof mascara before I came here."
