We like good causes. We like celebs who like good causes. We like celebs who like good causes who like to go shirtless. And that is why we like David Beckham.

Becks recently made a trip to Sierra Leone with UNICEF to bring awareness to the high child-mortality rate in the region.

Says the soccer player, "We can't turn a blind eye to the tens of thousands of young children who die every day in the developing world, mostly from causes that are preventable." 

And then, as if that weren't reason enough to make us love him, he took his shirt off during a friendly game of soccer.

That's just how Becks rolls, and we are most certainly not going to complain...
