Joe Lycett tells David Beckham to scrap multi-million pound deal with Qatar for supporting World Cup. See what he may do if it doesn’t happen

The former football star David Beckham joined hands with Qatar, according to what some say, by signing a multi-million pound deal to act as an ambassador for the upcoming world cup.

Joe Lycett has threatened to shred £10,000 of his own money if David Beckham does not end his multi-million-pound deal with Qatar to promote the world cup.

Over the years, the English former football star, has grown a huge fan following in gay communities and showed his support to gay charities.


Joe also made a derogatory comment about David’s marriage to a spice girl.

In a clip shared by Joe Lycett, he was sitting on a desk with a whopping £10,000 and said this:

“This is a message to David Beckham. I consider you, along with Kim Woodburn and Monty Don, to be a gay icon.”

“You're the first premiership footballer to do shoots with gay magazines like Attitude, to speak openly about your gay fans.”

“But now it's 2022. And you signed a reported £10m deal with Qatar to be their ambassador during the FIFA World Cup.”



“Qatar was voted as one of the worst places in the world to be gay. Homosexuality is illegal, punishable by imprisonment and, if you're Muslim, possibly even death.”

“If you end your relationship with Qatar, I'll donate this 10 grand of my own money, as a grand for every million you're reportedly getting, to charities that support queer people in football.”

“However, if you do not, at midday next Sunday, I will throw this money into a shredder just before the opening ceremony of the World Cup and stream it live on a website I've registered called benderslikebeckham.com.”

“Not just the money, but also your status as a gay icon will be shredded. You will be forcing me to commit a crime.”

The comedian raised his voice saying that Qatar laws are discriminating in nature and they go against the queer community.
