Cruz Beckham Debuts on TFI Friday, Shocking Past!

Cruz Beckham made his live radio debut on the return of Chris Evans' TFI Friday Show this weekend, over 25 years after his mother Victoria's famous appearance.

The Spice Girl was a guest on the iconic series back in 1999, and the episode featured the toe-curling moment Chris asked her to weigh herself live on air, just months after she'd given birth to her son Brooklyn.

The clip from now has a more sinister connotation after Victoria admitted she has suffered an eating disorder since the earliest days of her pop career in her new documentary.

But with Cruz set to launch his music career with a nationwide tour later this month, the musician was joined by his band The Breakers, formed of Dan Ewins, Telmo Seixas and Dario Scotti, for an appearance on the show.

After performing their song For Your Love, the band also delivered a cover of 's I'm On Fire. 

During an interview with Chris, Cruz said: 'Honestly just to keep making music and keep trying to put a smile on people's faces. People need it right now.'

He also shared that the first gig he attended was one of Victoria's Spice Girls shows, followed by a Stone Roses concert with his dad David at Old Trafford.

At the height of their Spice Girls heyday, Victoria was a guest on Chris' TFI Friday show, where she was asked to weigh herself on live TV.

Evans warmly greeted Victoria by kissing her hand and cheeks – turning to Sir David, he joked: 'It was just a quick peck, David, that's all it was.'

The interview was just before David and Victoria's wedding and after Manchester United's treble Champions League, Premier League and FA Cup success, which was followed, Victoria said, by 'a massive party'.

Evans told the audience the 'world's most famous baby' was asleep downstairs, adding: 'We've had to turn the bands down all day.'

He then asked Victoria: 'A lot of girls want to know, because you look fantastic again, how did you get back to your shape after your birth?'

She replied: 'I haven't done anything, I mean I'm really lazy… I don't go down to the gym or anything…'

Chris interjected: 'Are you one of these sickening women that don't have to do anything.'
