Romeo Beckhamis aware of motherVictoria Beckham‘s fame — and he’s ready to use her legendary pop-star status to his TikTok benefit.

On Monday’s episode ofThe Ellen DeGeneres Show, Victoria explained howthat viral videoof her dancing with her 17-year-old son in their kitchen earlier this month came to be. The clip, which was posted on Romeo’s new TikTok account, showed the mother and son grooving to theSpice Girlshit song, “Spice Up Your Life.”

“He came home the other day and he said, ‘You know, Mom, I’ve just joined TikTok, will you do a dance with me?’ And I was like, ‘Yeah, what should we dance to?’ He said the Spice Girls,” Victoria, 45, toldEllen DeGeneres. “And then he took my phone, he posted it on my Instagram, and he said, ‘That’ll get my numbers up.'”

That Instagram Story post on Posh Spice’saccountread “Go watch our tik Tok 😂,” with a shout-out to Romeo’s new social mediaprofile,which now has some 142,000 followers. Romeo cleverly used the hashtags “#spicegirls” and “#poshmum” on his viral post.

“He used me,” Victoria joked.

Recorded inside a kitchen, Victoria breaks it down with Romeo (who wears a long-sleeved shirt fromJustin Bieber‘s Drew fashion label) as he tries to keep up with his mom’s moves.

“It was a lot of fun,” Victoria told DeGeneres, “but I have to say, I think that Romeo definitely takes after his dad with his moves.”

The Beckham children — sonsBrooklyn Joseph, 20, andCruz David, 14, and daughterHarper Seven, 8, whom Victoria shares with soccer proDavid Beckham, 44 — often embrace their mother’s music icon status, even though they weren’t even born during the height of the Spice Girls’ fame.
