    David and Victoria Beckham gave their 13-year-old son the best birthday surprise ever

    David and Victoria Beckham really pulled it out of the bag for Brooklyn Beckham's 13th birthday this weekend, by treating him to a personal rendition of 'Happy Birthday' by none other then Usher.

    The Beckhams' eldest son is apparently obsessed with Usher and was obviously thrilled when the superstar singer phoned him up to wish him a good birthday.

    'Brooklyn was having a great morning sharing all of his presents with his little brothers. He's naturally quite shy and isn't one for courting attention, even on his birthday,' a source told the Daily Star newspaper.

    'As he was unwrapping a new Arsenal soccer kit, David casually walked in telling him there was someone on the phone who wanted to wish him "Happy Birthday."

    'Brooklyn had been getting calls from England all morning so just assumed it was another relative. When he picked up the phone, Usher sang "Happy Birthday". Brooklyn is crazy about Usher and has met him a few times. He went bright red and started to get really shy. He told his dad after that it was the best present ever.'
