Even a Spice Girl isn’t up to Harper’s dancing standards! Victoria is lambasted by her daughter, 14, for not keeping up with TikTok dance on her Netflix doc

Victoria Beckham got playfully criticized by her 14-year-old daughter, Harper, in her new Netflix documentary. Harper teased her mom about not being very good at TikTok dances.

The 51-year-old fashion designer was enjoying time with her youngest child, and they were having fun with a popular dance trend on social media, set to the song ‘Le Freak’ by Chic.

In the first episode, Victoria shares how the Spice Girls helped her feel confident in herself. She explains that she constantly tells Harper to pursue her passions and embrace her true self.

The scene cuts to Harper attempting to teach her a TikTok dance, giving instructions like, ‘Shoulder, clap, and then I’ll do this while you do something else.’

Victoria then says: ‘Oh but I don’t like to freestyle!’

As the music for Le Freak starts, they begin to dance. Harper, noticing her friend, calls out, ‘No, not like that! Try a dance move—something unexpected! Just do your tap dancing!’

Victoria then asked if Harper was using a filter. When Harper showed it to her, Victoria exclaimed, ‘Oh, I look fantastic!’

Watching the recording, Victoria playfully comments, ‘Wow, she’s still got it! Look at those moves! And this angle is perfect for me too!’

In the first episode, Victoria shared how being a loner and experiencing bullying as a child influenced her strong work ethic.

The singer, now a famous fashion designer, reminisced about her childhood in Hertfordshire, where she was raised by her parents, Tony and Jackie, alongside her brother Christian and sister Louise.

Victoria shared some personal, never-before-seen photos and home videos, revealing that she didn’t truly embrace her identity and appearance until she became a Spice Girl at age 19.

Dance and theatre classes on the weekends helped her cope with being bullied at school. She explained that these activities offered a welcome escape, allowing her to step into different roles and temporarily forget her troubles.

I was pretty isolated during school – I experienced bullying and wasn’t very outgoing, so I never really felt like I belonged. But being on stage allowed me to transform and become someone different, even if just for a little while.

‘I didn’t really wanna be me, I didn’t like me. I desperately wanted to be liked.’

You know, I’ve always been fascinated by Victoria’s story. While she absolutely blossomed as a performer, dance wasn’t something that came easily to her. She’s been really open about that! Her dad, though, was her biggest champion. He pushed her to work incredibly hard, especially after she got into theatre school – he believed in her so much, he even remortgaged their house to help make it happen. It just shows you the power of dedication and a supportive family!

I was really touched when Victoria shared how, even though she got her strong work ethic from her dad, she just never felt like she belonged at dance school. She knew, deep down, it wasn’t the right place for her to truly shine.

She recalled that she often felt different from other girls, and this led to a lot of negative comments about how she looked and her weight.

I recall the head of the theatre school telling us that we’d be brought in from the back of the stage after the performance, which was a polite way of saying we didn’t look as good as the other performers.

I vividly remember calling my mom, completely upset and begging to come home. She immediately told me to come back, promising we’d get me new shoes. But then my dad would get on the phone and insist I stay put and keep working hard.

Victoria’s parents, Tony and Jackie Adams, are also featured in the Netflix film, where they fondly discuss their strong connection with Victoria and her siblings. They explain how growing up in a working-class family helped create their lasting bond.

Her recent comments about her family’s humble beginnings echo a similar discussion from two years ago. This earlier conversation stemmed from a moment in David Beckham’s 2023 Netflix documentary where he playfully questioned his wife’s description of her working-class upbringing.

In the documentary, a surprised David questioned Victoria, asking her to tell the truth. She insisted she was being honest. He then kept pressing her to remember what kind of car her father drove her to school in.

Finally, the Spice Girl agreed, revealing, ‘My dad owned a Rolls-Royce in the 1980s.’ David simply said ‘Thank you,’ then left and shut the door, having gotten the information he needed.

In her documentary, Victoria showed a well-known photo of a Rolls Royce while reflecting on how her father, who sold electrical supplies, built his success from humble beginnings.

My dad would have my siblings and me work like a small assembly line, building things like plugs and other electrical items. Then, our whole family would load into his van to deliver everything we’d made.

‘Dad worked so, so hard and he expected me to be the same.’

Victoria’s dedication to her career has proven successful. Reports this week show she earned over £1.7 million from her music last year, even though she hasn’t released any new songs in quite some time.
