David Beckham’s son Brooklyn has landed a job as a photographer at this summer’s V Festival.

A source told the Metro: “Organisers have been so impressed with Brooklyn’s Instagram shots they decided to give him a call.

“They want to put him down in the pit in front of the main stage so he can get close to Rihanna and (Justin) Bieber and give the world his own take on their performances.”

It won’t be his first paying job as a photographer – he did some work for Burberry earlier on this year.

“He actually loves photography. That is one of his passions,” his father, who used to play a bit of football, said last year amid accusations of nepotism.

“I have always said to my children, as long as they have a passion for something, we will encourage it.”

This year’s event will see Justin Bieber, Rihanna, David Guetta and SIA take to the main stages in Chelmsford and Staffordshire.
