In today’s earth shattering news, even David Beckham uses a body double for shots that might make him look less than hot. H&M has confirmed that it had used a body double for the latest ad, which went viral in just hours after release.

In case you missed it the other day, check it out above again. However, *please note that certain discretion is recommended when viewing it, this being a lingerie commercial and all.

See if you can spot the scenes in which Beckham used a stand-in.

If you’re having bad luck with it, I’ll help you out: notice how, in scenes showing him from behind, running, his tattoos disappear. That’s Becks’ body / bum double.

“David was very involved in the advert, including doing most of the stunts. Due to his tight schedule, a body double was used in smaller parts of the video,” H&M says in a statement to Today.com.
