David Beckham was supported by a bevy of beauties at the 6th Biennial UNICEF Ball in Beverly Hills on Tuesday.
Selena Gomez, Mariah Carey, Nicole Kidman and Heidi Klum were among a host of sultry stars dazzling on the red carpet at the lavish Beverly Wilshire Four Seasons Hotel, and helping to raise over $2.5 million for the charity's lifesaving programs.
David was being honoured with the charity's Humanitarian Leadership Award during the ceremony, for his work helping children through his Seven Foundation.
The 40-year-old football star looked very handsome as he arrived at the bash, sporting a classic black tuxedo and bow tie; almost stealing the limelight from his glamorous companions.
Sir Elton John, an old friend of the famous British footballer, presented the award to Beckham thanks to the father-of-four's help for the international charity over his expansive career.
Ahead of the evening, he shared a photo to Instagram which showed him posing with a group of young children and said: 'Extremely honoured to receive the @UNICEFUSA’s Humanitarian Leadership Award this evening at the #UNICEFBall.
'I can’t wait to continue doing all I can for Unicef and my 7 Fund, 7.org, to help children across the world.'
Presented by Louis Vuitton, the UNICEF Ball marked the launch of LOUIS VUITTON for UNICEF, a global partnership between the humanitarian organization for children and the luxury fashion house to help support children affected by conflict, disease, natural disasters, and other situations that threaten their safety and well-being.

Go hell for leather like Selena in Louis Vuitton
We were just beginning to get over the glamour of the Golden Globe Awards, when along came the UNICEF Ball.
Mariah Carey, Nicole Kidman, Jennifer Connelly, Heidi Klum, Miranda Kerr and the very dapper David Beckham were all there, and since the event was presented by Louis Vuitton, there was of course a whole of LV on the blue carpet.
Selena Gomez really sent temperatures in her red hot leather dress, which is from the Resort 2016 collection. You might think that once you've seen one awards season gown you've seen them all, but the zip front, ruffle neckline and monogram cut out detailing makes this dress very unique.
