LOS ANGELES – David Beckham no longer sounds like a wimp.

After a five-hour successful voice lowering surgery on Saturday, the LA Galaxy midfielder will now speak – literally – like Barry White.

In a deal estimated to be in the $10 million range, Beckham bought the late soul singer’s voicebox. He is still negotiating the rights to White’s music. If successful, he and wife Victoria “Posh Spice” Beckham next year will record a duet album entitled, “Can’t Get Enough of Your Voice, Babby.”

Beckham, under doctor’s orders not to speak for the next month until the doctor travels to Mexico, would not physically comment. His wife, however, sat by his side with a smile as wide as her cleavage.

“Next to my friendships with Tom Cruise and Will Smith, this is the happiest day of my life,” Posh said of her husband’s new voice. “I can finally be turned on by David when he calls me from the road.”

Beckham, whose sculpted figure has tantalized women across the globe, has never had the voice to match it. His wife, who “married him for what I saw on the inside,” realized that part of that inside included high pitched vocal chords.

Initially fearing that elective surgery on Beckham’s voice might risk his life, thus ruining her savings, Posh allegedly waited until he neared the end of his career to push him on the change.

Posh, however, claims that is the “farthest thing from the truth,” adding “that would be a good name for a pop song, ‘The Farthest Thing From the Truth,’ don’t ya think?”

White’s voicebox, however, wasn’t buying it.

“That girl is full of you know what,” White’s voicebox said an hour prior to surgery. “And tell that no-talent girl to keep her mouth shut and just look good. She couldn’t name a pop song from a list of pop songs.

While it isn’t high on Posh, White’s voicebox said he’s looking forward to voicing Beckham for the rest of the athlete’s life.

“I’m completing a package,” White’s voicebox said. “And if he opted for another transplant, I’d be completing two.

“Ohhhhhhhh yeah, baby.”
