Track 65

Track 65.

Well, the famous person I’m going to describe is David Beckham.

He was a footballer who played for Manchester United, and he also played for England.

I first saw him play for United when I was only seven, so that was probably in about 2002.

I remember it as one of the most exciting days in my life!

David Beckham became famous because he was a very talented footballer.

His specialty was scoring amazing goals from free kicks.

But he wasn’t well-known only for his football skills.

He became even more famous when he married a pop star Victoria, one of the Spice Girls.

And another reason for his fame was his good looks and his style.

I think almost every boy in the world wanted to have a David Beckham haircut!

I know I did.

I adored him as a boy because I was mad about football and he was my hero.

The reason why I still like him is that in spite of his fame he behaves like a normal guy.

I heard a story from someone whose car was broken down in the middle of the countryside.

And then a car stopped and a man got out and asked him if he needed a push.

It was David Beckham!
