Sure the paypacket is huge but I think in some ways it's an act of desperation.
England and Real Madrid have dumped him and I bet he's privately gutted. So his PR people hit back with huge headlines about he'll earn gazillions to make sponsors and the public think he's still a force to be reckoned with in football and somehow this is what he wanted, blah, blah.
I doubt this is how he wanted his career to end. He's sportsman. I'm sure he would much rather play for England again and be remembered as a footballer than as a brand which is all he will be now.
He hasn't a hope in hell in Hollywood. He looks good but he sounds like a gerbil when he opens his mouth. As for Sticktoria, she has even less a chance of succeeding in tinselttown than him. They'll attend a few parties, get photographed a lot, talk about exciting Hollywood projects that will never materialize and, er, that's about it really.
