David Beckham for cameo in Simpsons

David Beckham is to be featured in an upcoming episode of cartoon series 'The Simpsons'.

The Real Madrid footballer had formerly been considered for a role but the show's makers didn't think he was high profile enough.

Producers changed their mind after Beckham and his wife Victoria did a publicity tour in the US earlier this year.
