Tom Cruise and Will Smith Host Star-Studded Bash for David Beckham, Transforming Venue into a Living Madame Tussauds Experience

Stars of Hollywood Tom Cruise and Will Smith ushered David Beckham into the United States in a grand manner when he signed with LA Galaxy in 2007.

When the England icon finished his sensational transfer from Real Madrid, the two legendary actors held a star-studded celebration for him.

Comparable to an Oscars after-party, the massive celebration was attended by some of the biggest movie and music stars in the world, including Bruce Willis, Jim Carrey, Matthew Perry, and Stevie Wonder.

The former Manchester United player recalled the incident in his Netflix documentary film BECKHAM, saying, “Well, the funny thing was I was friends with Tom Cruise.”

Tom turned around, and I remember him saying, ‘Me and Will are going to give you a party.'”

“And I thought, ‘Will?'”

“‘Will Smith!'” he exclaimed.

David Gardner, Beckham’s business partner and friend, described the celebration as follows: “Everywhere you looked there was a famous person, it was like being in Madame Tussauds.”

“And the very next minute, Stevie Wonder begins to play him a Happy Birthday on the piano.

“We had to make a circle for Tom Cruise so he could redo the choreography for the Risky Business dance scene,” said former LA Galaxy star Kyle Martino.

In 124 games for LA Galaxy, Beckham recorded 20 goals and 42 assists before departing in 2013 to play for Paris Saint-Germain, where he eventually retired.

The next year, the England icon came back to Major League Soccer after he fulfilled his option to purchase a team.

After that, he founded Inter Miami.
