3AM: My sole brother; SNOOP & BECKS' SLIPPER LOVE.

Byline: Eva Simpson & Caroline Hedley

WHEN he's not posing in just his undies, he's usually wearing custom-made football boots.

But David Beckham has a secret fetish for SLIPPERS says his rapper pal Snoop Dogg - who spilled the beans to us during a chat at his swanky pad.

We can reveal the unlikely duo are set to launch their own range of the fogeyish footwear.

And David's love of the comfy house shoes started when Snoop sent him a pair of his own Sensual Seduction ones for Christmas.

Snoop told us: "I got him a pair as a present, and he took a picture and sent it back to me, and I was like, 'They look cool!'

"We are talking about making a slipper together. So when I stop rapping and he stops football we can kick back and slip on a house shoe."

We revealed last November that Snoop - star of hit E! TV show Snoop Dogg's Father Hood - and Becks are becoming inseparable.

LA Galaxy star David turned up at Snoop's luxury Beverly Hills mansion with his youngest son Cruz, and taught the rapper's boys Corde, Cordell and daughter Cori footy skills in their backyard.

Afterwards they all headed to fastfood joint Popeyes for fried chicken.

Snoop, 36, told us: "David and I go back years. He was terrific with my kids and taught them how to shoot and score the perfect goal. That's a partnership you never thought you would see, Snoop and Beckham."

And this family bonding is helping the Doggfather repair his friendship with Victoria.

"I met Posh one time, at the Live 8 concert," he said. "She didn't really like me much. She didn't like my bad boy persona.

"All she knew was 'Snoop Dogg's a bad guy. I don't want my husband dealing with him - he's going to rub off on my husband.'

"But now she's seen my show, and I think I'm cool with her now that she knows I'm family-orientated, that I have structure and a wife."

He adds: "Now she knows I'm a great person to rub off on her husband.

"Victoria's the boss lady in that relationship - that's how it is."

That should get him out of the Dogg-house!
