\"Is<\/a>
Is Cruz Beckham the next Billy Elliot?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Talent Management has just heard that 5-year-old Cruz, David and Victoria Beckham\u2019s youngest son, has ambitions to become a ballet dancer<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Apparently, the inspiration came when Cruz, who we\u2019ve already seen breakdancing at a Spice Girls concert, attended a ballet class with his female cousin. Since then, the young star in the making has begun regular lessons with an all-girl class and is said to be making \u201cbrilliant\u201d progress.<\/p>\n

\u201cCruz absolutely loves ballet classes – and he\u2019s a complete natural. He went along to a class with Victoria\u2019s sister Louise\u2019s daughter, and was not bothered in the slightest upon discovering he was the only boy in the room,\u201d a source told femalefirst.co.uk.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe was brilliant. Cruz has been to every class religiously since, practising his plies around the kitchen table.\u201d<\/p>\n

Talent Management is also happy to hear that Cruz\u2019 celebrity parents are supporting his ballet ambitions all the way.<\/p>\n

\u201cDavid and Victoria are really supportive and think it\u2019s fantastic. They\u2019ve both been to see him in action, watching him dance around in his little \u2018Power Rangers\u2019 top and shorts,\u201d the source added.<\/p>\n

Whether it\u2019s breakdancing or ballet, Talent Management<\/a> and Dancers Direct <\/a>wish this \u2018Billy Elliot\u2019 in the making the best of luck with his dancing and hope to one day see him on the big stage!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
