From Tom Cruise’s breakdance to the Spice Girls’ reunion: reports from Victoria Beckham’s party capture the imagination

Tom Cruise break dancing, a Spice Girls reunion and a host of A-list celebrities coming together in one location have social media and the general public in awe at Victoria Beckham’s 50th birthday party.

Beckham, who celebrated a half-century this weekend, posted on Instagram about the luxurious soiree Sunday.

But some of the most talked-about moments were deliberately left unrecorded.

“I don’t think I’ve ever felt as loved as I did last night,” Beckham said in his post. “Thank you all for coming from near and far!!

In the post, Beckham shared photos of her with actor Eva Longoria, celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay, her husband, football star David Beckham and some of the couple’s children.

In another Instagram post, Beckham shared a photo of her and the four other members of the English pop group Spice Girls.

“The best gift to be reunited!! Thank you to all my friends and family for celebrating with me. Kisses! xxx,” Beckham’s post about the Spice Girls read.

Guests ‘absolutely stunned’ by Tom Cruise’s dancing, say reports

Neither post included other celebrity attendees who came to celebrate with the Beckhams at Oswald’s, a private club owned by Robin Birley in London’s Mayfair.

Oswald’s is strict about taking photos and allowing social media at the location, according to the club member’s privacy statement.

Actors Tom Cruise and Salma Hayek both showed up at Beckham’s party and while one left an impression with their outfit, the other left it all on the dance floor, the Daily Mail reported.

Cruise, who turned 61 in July 2023, wowed guests when he “began to demonstrate a series of breakdance moves, culminating in splits,” according to the outlet.

“People were absolutely stunned,” one guest told the Daily Mail.

Social media reacts to Tom Cruise’s ‘split mania’ and not receiving an invite to Victoria Beckham’s party

Although no photos or videos of Cruise dancing exist online, social media users continue to make fun of the “Mission Impossible” movie star. An

Several social media users harkened back to the time when Cruise played the character Les Grossman in the 2008 comedy film ‘Tropic Thunder’. Cruise would hilariously reprise the character at the 2010 MTV Movie Awards, dancing to the song ‘Get Back’ by rapper Ludacris.

“Remember when Tom Cruise did this,” X user @charletty_ said in a post on Monday in response to the video of Cruise’s full dance routine at the awards show.

During the routine with singer and actress Jennifer Lopez, Cruise does a split on stage. X user @danilo_parks said in a post on Monday: “It’s real Tom Cruise is doing the split mania today.”

In addition to seeing Cruise splits and the Spice Girls’ performance, guests also received goody bags full of Beckham brand products, including a candle and fragrance, the Telegraph reported.

The kicker is that people are wondering where their invitation was to Beckham’s birthday party, including X user @StaceyVaselaney who said: “I’m sitting here shaking my head wondering why I wasn’t invited to Victoria Beckham’s 50th birthday party.”
