Sir Sean Connery and Keanu Reeves also feature in commercial
Wednesday, 25 February 2009
David Beckham has been used in a Chinese TV ad promoting a new sex drug – without permission.
The 30 second clip uses footage of Becks while a voiceover plugs the Viagra-style pill.
The dubbed ad says: ‘Want to know how I can keep being strong and running on the football field?
‘USA Selikon capsules help me a lot. It’s also the secret weapon with which I can satisfy Victoria.’
Sir Sean Connery, 78, and Keanu Reeves, 44, are also featured in the commercials.
But the makers refer to Sir Sean's wife Micheline as Barbara and take eight years off his age.
‘I turned 70 this year,’ says the voiceover. ‘But with the help of USA Selikon capsules, I was praised by Barbara that I'm still James Bond, forever 25."’
A sales manager for the company claims the ads were approved by Chinese government authorities.
A spokesman for David, 33, said he was aware of the video but declined to comment further.
Sir Sean's rep revealed he plans to take legal action.
