Soccer star Wayne Rooney wants One Direction to play at his son’s third birthday

One Direction

The Manchester United footballer often sings the group’s song ‘What Makes You Beautiful’ to Kai – his child with wife Coleen – and has begged One Direction to show up at the bash, which will be held at his Cheshire home on November 2, to perform it in person for the youngster .

A source told the Daily Star newspaper: “He wants them to perform a few hits in the back garden at their mansion in Prestbury, Cheshire.

“Wayne’s particularly keen to hear them sing ‘What Makes You Beautiful’, a song he often sings to Kai to make him laugh.“He’s so keen he’s even using some of his famous connections in the hope that it will persuade Harry Styles and the rest of the lads to make an appearance.”

Recently One Direction’s rivals The Wanted performed at Romeo Beckham’s birthday party in Los Angeles after his mother Victoria approached them.

A source said: "Victoria has some handy connections with the band and it wasn't hard to get them along.

"The lads were in the States anyway preparing for the MTV VMAS and were happy to pop over.
"They met all Romeo's pals and posed for snaps. It's the easiest gig they've ever had."

Chris Brown partied with Manchester United soccer star Wayne Rooney in Los Angeles

The 'Beautiful People' singer was sent two bottles of champagne by the Manchester United player after he spotted him in the AV nightclub on Monday night, and the stars then hung out at adjoining tables.

Chris hit the headlines recently after he was involved in a bottle-slinging club brawl with Drake in June. The rapper returned a bottle of bubbly to Chris' table with a note about his ex-lover Rihanna which reportedly read: "I'm f***ing the love of your life, deal with it."

But the 23-year-old musician was much more accepting of Wayne's offer of some Ace of Spades bubbly and the pair and their entourages happily partied next to each other, according to The New York Post newspaper.

Chris was with his girlfriend Karrueche Tran in the corner, and Wayne, 26, was joined by fellow soccer players Ashley Cole and Didier Drogba at a table by the DJ booth.

'Yeah 3x' singer Chris left the club at 2am with Wayne leaving shortly after, and they all missed the arrival of Lindsay Lohan.

The party-loving 'Liz & Dick' star – who complained of being exhausted because of her filming schedule after being found "unresponsive" in her hotel room last month - arrived at 2am with two male friends and left at 3am.

The rapper and actor believes he and the Manchester United soccer player could make £1billion together with a restaurant chain and a clothing empire.

He told the Daily Star: "I'm a big fan of Wayne Rooney, he's a brand. I want to become business partners with him. European soccer is a big business and there's money to be made with top players.

"I've met Wayne and he's a great guy. He's one of the top soccer players in the world and has a lot of years left in his career."

The 36-year-old thinks he and Wayne, 26, could make plenty of funds from the night life industry too.
He said: "I am all about making money and I know my man Wayne is as well.

"The possibilities are endless. Restaurants in Europe, clothing stores, nightclubs. Making millions is cool, but making a billion is better, and Wayne knows it!"

50 Cent has even invited the footballer as well as his wife Coleen and son Kai to visit him in Florida.

He revealed: "When Euro 2012 is over I've invited Wayne and his family to stay at my place in Miami.

"Nobody will bother them or take photos of them over here. My people will make sure of that."
