Football star David Beckham is set to answer questions from fans using Yahoo Answers, part of his new role as the company’s “Global Sports Ambassador” -– a deal that also requires Beckham to contribute commentary to Yahoo Sports during the World Cup.
The live Q&A event takes place on July 14; until then, users are encouraged to ask their questions over on Yahoo Answers, where some 250+ answers to the query “what would you ask and why?” have already been submitted.
The most interesting part, perhaps, is that the selected questions will come from 20 different countries. The fans that came up with the questions will ask them over live video via Cisco TelePresence. Additional questions can be submitted during the live event via Yahoo Mail, Beckham’s Facebook Page and Twitter.
