The former professional soccer star went out of his way to perform the role of an embarrassing dad, as he lip-synced along to Cruz's new charity single in a video the aspiring pop star was filming.

Initially, Cruz was oblivious to what his dad was doing, but he soon realised and was clearly embarrassed by his dad's behaviour.

Despite this, David has been very supportive of his son's charity single 'If Every Day Was Christmas', which was Cruz's own idea.

Cruz has already been signed by talent manager Scooter Braun, and the retired sportsman is very proud of his 11-year-old son.

He said: "The amazing thing about this, we only realised Cruz has a cute little voice about nine months ago. Scooter has been a family friend for a while, so he said to bring him in, see if he enjoys it.

"For us, we always want in our children, we always hope they're listening to us or pay attention to us as parents, so we do a lot of work for charity for obviously Unicef and my wife does for the UN. And Cruz came to us and said 'How about I do a Christmas song for charity? And all the proceeds go to charity.' There's nothing more to this than that at the moment.

"He's 11-years-old, he's still at school, he's concentrating at school. That's the most important thing. But he wanted to give back and he's done this amazing little Christmas song that's got a lot of attention. And you know we are very proud of it. He came to us with the idea. It's kind of cool but he's having fun."
