Looks like David and Victoria Beckham have now joined the swelling ranks of celebrities like Madonna who have adopted Kabbalah.

According to newsweek.com, speculation began when the English football captain was spotted with a large tattoo in Hebrew on his arm. His wife Victoria is now said to be getting a smaller version on her neck.

The tattoos say, "I am for my beloved, and my beloved is for me, who grazes sheep in rose-like pastures." They are taken from the Old Testament book Song of Songs and are written in Hebrew.

Other celebrities who have followed this trend are Britney Spears. She, too, has Hebrew words tattooed on her neck. In recent times the group has come under scrutiny for allegedly shady financial dealings.

A source says, "Madonna has been pursuing (the Beckhams) and trying to pull them into the Kabbalah Centre. If it's true that she has recruited them, it's a huge coup. They are the most important people she could recruit in Great Britain outside the royal family."
