Britney: 'David Beckham is a cutie'

Britney Spears has revealed that she wants to learn how to play football.

The American popstar, 26, said she is a fan of the US Major Soccer League and in particular LA Galaxy's David Beckham.

"I am not a very good soccer player," she told OK! "So I have to get someone in to help me. Maybe [Beckham] can.

"He is my favourite soccer star, and he's a cutie."

Spears releases her sixth studio album Circus on December 1.
