England soccer ace David Beckham has become the unwitting star of a Chinese television commercial - where he appears to promote a range of Viagra-style impotence capsules.

A dubbed voice accompanies some old interview footage of the star in the unlicensed ad, made possible because of relaxed image rights in the Asian country.

In a jokey reference to his Spice Girl wife, the voiceover says, "Want to know how I can keep being strong and running on the football field? USA Selikon capsules help me a lot. It's also the secret weapon with which I can satisfy Victoria."

Other stars of the commercials include actors Keanu Reeves and Sean Connery - who seems to say, "With the help of the capsules, I'm James Bond, forever 25."
