David Beckham may be first and foremost famous for his skills on the soccer/football field, but he's also well known for his marriage to former Spice Girl Victoria Adams. The two have been married since 1999, share four children, and put their lives on display in 2023 for the Netflix docuseries Beckham . Recently, the athlete reflected back to the '90s to name his favorite Spice Girls song for a very sweet reason.
There's no shortage of Spice Girls earworms to choose from, and it's safe to say that plenty of people even circa 2024 could still sing along to "Wannabe" and "Spice Up Your Life" with no trouble. As David Beckham shared in a recent appearance on Hot Ones , his favorite is a totally different pick from the one he was tricked into singing back in 2020. He explained: I remember being sat in a hotel with Gary Neville, who was my teammate for Manchester United and my best man at my wedding, and we had a game the next day, and we were in the hotel, and we sat there watching the telly and all of a sudden the Spice Girls came on with their new video.
It came on, I think it was on Top of the Pops, and it was ‘Say You’ll Be There.’ Apparently, seeing the music video for a particular song on the eve of a football match stuck with Beckham! The timing before a game isn't what makes "Say You'll Be There" special to him all these years later, though. He went on: I turned around to Gary and I was like, ‘See the one in the black dress,’ actually it wasn’t a black dress.
