The folks behind the Super Bowl commercial we’re anticipating most over here at Queen of Sports have just released a sneak peek of what we can expect to see on February 5.

The 30-second spot features David Beckham modeling underwear from his David Beckham Bodywear for H&M line. We’re loving the black and white aesthetic with a classic Animals tune providing the soundtrack.

Beckham In His Undies During The Super Bowl!

If your favorite teams aren’t playing in the Super Bowl this year, we are going to give you another reason to watch… A commercial featuring David Beckham in his underwear!

We got word today that the “David Beckham Bodywear” line will be showcased on TV during Super Bowl Sunday. The Beckham spot is set to debut during the the 2nd quarter of NBC’s broadcast.

The 9-piece underwear line is set to launch on February 2nd at 1,800 stores nationwide.

First Look: David Beckham Modeling New Underwear Line For H&M

We told you a little less than a year ago about David Beckham‘s plans to launch his own underwear line. Now, we have new details about that project!

The David Beckham Bodywear line will be debuting in February 2012 at worldwide retailer H&M. Lucky for us, Beckham has opted to model all of his own designs and we found the first photos of the new line.

Beckham told the Telegraph, “The final piece in the jigsaw was a retail partner who has the vision and capability to distribute these products globally. In H&M we have found the perfect partner to collaborate with going forward, I’m excited and looking forward to showcasing the range to H&M customers from February.”

Becks decided to leave out any overt branding on the products to, “‘present a range of new classics, comprising of briefs, boxers, vests, T-shirts, pyjamas and long johns.” H&M has stated this is only the first of many collaborations between the retailer and soccer stud.

Happy Valentine’s Day to us! Here’s more photos from the line:

David Beckham To Design And Model Underwear

Soccer stud David Beckham recently sat down with Women’s Wear Daily and told the magazine about his latest off-the-field project, creating his own line of men’s underwear.

David says that the inspiration for his own line came from the work he has previous done with Armani.

“With my team we have spent time working on the fit, the fabric and the style to ensure the product looks and feels the very best and I am hugely proud of the end result,” Beckham said. “I can’t wait to show people the collection — although I’m not sure my mum will be too happy seeing a billboard image of me in underwear again.” We disagree with Mama Beckham and can’t get enough of DB in his undies!

The Los Angeles Galaxy star has quite a bit on his plate, his men’s fragrance, Homme by David Beckham will hit shelves in September.

Unlike some other athletes, David says that he didn’t plan to create such a large brand, “It’s not my natural inclination to see myself as a brand, I’m just a person who has been fortunate to explore other interests and passions outside of the game I love,” he explained. “I will always be associated with my sport but I am now working across other areas that will continue long after my career has finished.”
