David
Beckham Reveals Boyhood Ballet Secret
12/24/07
David Beckham has confessed to an embarrassing secret - he wore ballet
shoes and knickerbockers as a young boy.
The soccer ace donned the effeminate outfit, complete with long socks,
in preference to a suit when he was a page boy growing up in Essex,
England.
The 32-year-old tells British newspaper The Sun, "My dad gave me a
little bit of stick (sarcastic comments), but I was happy."
This is not the first time Beckham has owned up to a girly streak. The
L.A. Galaxy and England player was snapped in a sarong during a holiday in
France in 1998.
