Talented Cruz Beckham

His parents know a thing or two about playing up to the cameras. And so, it seems, does David and Victoria Beckham's three-year-old son.


At the Spice Girls show in New York on Monday, Cruz broke into an impromptu breakdance routine.

The group had taken their children up on stage during the song Mama. Midway through, Cruz started body popping to the music.




As his movements became increasingly energetic, cheers went up from the audience.

Then, with all eyes on him, he performed a series of front rolls across the stage and spun round on his head.

The routine ended with him powering himself around like a plane rotor on the floor as his mother looked on astonished.


Unlike Cruz, his brothers Brooklyn and Romeo did not appear so comfortable on stage.

They were joined by Melanie Brown's daughter Angel Iris, ten months, Geri Halliwell's 19-month-old daughter Bluebell Madonna and Emma Bunton's son Beau, six months.

In the face of dwindling audiences, cancelled shows and furious rifts, the Spice Girls have taken to dragging their children up on stage in a rather laboured show of unity.

The children had all been watching their mothers perform from the front-row when they were pulled up in front of the crowd in New York.

Not wanting to be outdone by Mrs Beckham, Geri Halliwell brought up 19-month-old Bluebell Madonna.

Even six-month-old Beau, daughter of Emma Bunton, did not escape being hauled up while the girls cavorted on stage dressed in figure hugging, sparkling Roberto Cavalli outfits.

Melanie Brown seemed particularly impressed with Cruz's spontaneous performance, and stopped singing to laugh out aloud.

The tour, it was recently announced, is about to come to a rather-too abrupt end.

When the group announced they were reforming last June, shows were scheduled for five continents, although the tour appears to have run out of steam after just two.

The band blamed family commitments for their decision to cancel dates in Sydney Beijing, Cape Town and Buenos Aires although rumours of in-fighting are thought to be behind the move.

The last show will now be in Toronto on February 26th.
