Well, isn't that just great. David Beckham had "Victoria" tattooed across his right hand, officially making him not only one of the best looking husbands on the planet, but also one of the most devoted.

I mean, this dude must really want the world to know that he only has eyes for his wife and has no intention of ever leaving her side; otherwise, he wouldn't want a permanent reminder of the vows he took written all over his hand, right?

(Sigh. I wonder if she has any idea how lucky she is?)

Here's a better look at the tattoo, if you can't make it out from the photo above.

Aww. What an amazing guy. But you gotta admit -- getting a huge name tattoo is kind of a risky move, even if you think your marriage is rock solid. (Come on -- they're a Hollywood/London couple. Anything's possible.)

Some tattoos just really aren't a wise idea no matter how you look at them, and those featuring names are definitely at the top of the list. They're like a jinx or something. (Unless it's the name of your children or someone who has passed on and the tattoo is in honor of them. That's different.)

Back when I was in college, I can remember seriously considering having my sorority letters (Kappa Kappa Gamma) inked on my ankle. And yeah, it would've looked pretty cool -- for about four years. But now that I'm a 36-year-old mom, I'd hate to look down at my leg and see a permanent reminder of my drunken frat-party-goin' days staring back up at me. (Let's face it, I wasn't always this classy.)

And you know what other types of tattoos are as stupid as stupid gets? Sunflowers. Or fish. Or dolphins. Or peace signs. Or anything you think is remotely awesome when you're around the age of 18. I can't tell you how many friends I have who regret their very first tattoos -- because they're of things that really hold no significance at this point in their lives.

Hopefully for Becks, he and Victoria will live happily ever after and grow old together and all that good stuff. But if they don't? Well, I guess he could always try and disguise that tattoo with a huge soccer ball.

Would you ever get a tattoo of someone's name?

David Cassidy's Latest Mugshot Is a Warning for All Teen Idols (Cough, Justin Bieber, Cough) (PHOTO)

I think I love you, David Cassidy, but what are you so afraid of? A mugshot there is no cure for? Unfortunately, former teen heartthrob Cassidy went and got himself happy somewhere in upstate New York and then blew an illegal .10 after being stopped by cops. It was only two years ago that David was arrested for DUI in Florida. Apparently, he didn't learn his lesson. And yes, yes, this mugshot is even worse than the last one. A trail of bad mugshots is usually a sign that all is not well.

Can we talk about this latest mugshot for a moment?

Hardly anyone looks good in a mugshot. It's definitely not the most flattering time to have your photo taken. No one did your hair or makeup. The lighting is harsh. You've just committed some sort of crime. Someone may have just punched you in the face, too.

A few stalwart celebs managed to make the mugshot work for them. Paris Hilton comes to mind. Carmen Electra. Hugh Grant (well, he had just gotten lucky). But it's not easy to have a good mugshot, I'm telling you.

And former teen idols in particular seem to take really bad ones. Let's see ... Jeremy Landon anyone? He was the hottie from Dazed & Confused. He's got to have the worst mugshot EVER. Edward Furlong? No trace of the Terminator hottie in all those mugshots taken after domestic violence arrests.

I guess my point is, David, are you okay? We're worried about you.

In David's defense, he has been dealing with the death of his mother in December, who had dementia for several years.

But current teen idols should realize that everything they have is most likely fleeting. One day, you're on top of the world, millions of women worshipping you, vowing to do anything for you, and everything you could want -- money, cars, mansions, fame -- at your fingertips.

The next, you're staring dully into the camera for your county jail mugshot.

I'm not talking to Justin Bieber, Chris Brown, Harry Styles ... this is for all teen idols. But just for the sake of argument, let's pretend it's Justin Bieber. Okay, we don't have to pretend. Because former teen idol Leif Garrett has been there. His mugshot ranks up there with the worst of them. And he recently gave JB some unsolicited advice, telling the current teen idol:

Don't believe your own publicity. Sussing out who your real friends are is full-time work. Every scum bag, every drug dealer, every chicken hawk wants a piece of you.

And by "chicken hawk," I hope he doesn't mean Selena!

Teen idols, take note. Just don't take a mugshot. Or if you do, at least make it a good one.
