David Beckham — most women want to date him and most men want to bend it like him, but one Indonesian girl named Sripun actually got the chance to take over his Instagram.
Today, the 15-year-old middle-schooler from the city of Semarang, Central Java, has the reins of the Manchester United legend’s Instagram account (which has 43.3 million followers, by the way). She is using it to post Instagram Stories as part of an anti-bullying campaign Beckham is currently in Indonesia for, representing the 7 Fund, a charity Beckham founded in partnership with Unicef.
Beckham visited Sripun at her home yesterday to meet the girl he called an “Inspiration” for rising above the bullies at her school by starting and leading an anti-bullying group.

Sripun is using Beckham’s Instagram stories to give people a glimpse of her life and how she helped tackle bullying in her school and community. Over the past few hours, Sripun has posted stories showing Beckham’s fellow followers from her school, introducing them to other anti-bullying “agents of change”, as well as playing around with face filters with Becks himself.

Untung Sripun yang beruntung, coba mbak2 yg 10 tahun lebih tua dan mengerti akan sosok David Beckham, pasti disosor. pic.twitter.com/jU6CberZC9
