Victoria Beckham is getting lots of attention in LA - but not always the kind she'd hoped for.

The star has had a run in with the law on the streets of Los Angeles, where she was pulled over outside a Hollywood shopping complex by a Beverly Hills officer, who ran checks on her British driver’s license.

Shocked: the cop caught Victoria Beckham by surprise

Beckham put a cheeky strategy for buttering up police to the test - a yellow lacy bra was peeping out of her figure-hugging black shirtdress.

But she needn't have bothered - she was eventually given the green light, and continued on her shopping trip.

A day earlier, Posh raised eyebrows when she paid a visit to Santa Monica’s Pleasure Chest "speciality shop", where she tried on PVC gloves.

Across town, she also managed to get a laugh out of the hoards of photographers who follow her every move.

Posh had arranged for Team Beckham to prank the waiting paparazzi with an unusual body double - they dragged out a blow-up doll out of the star’s SUV in her place.

As well as doing what she does best - shop - Beckham has also been working overtime to raise her profile in new hometown.

She is as filming a reality TV series, and has has just signed on to hand out an award at the MTV Movie Awards 2007 on June 3.

She is set to join other A-list presenters at the event including Lindsay Lohan, Jessica Alba and Cameron Diaz.
