David Beckham has reportedly become friends with — and is sending text messages to — Marilyn Manson’s ex-wife Dita Von Teese.

The LA Galaxy soccer star — who has three sons with wife Victoria Beckham — is said to be so impressed by 35-year-old Dita’s “raunchy routine” he got her number so he could express his gratitude.

A source said, “David is a big fan of Dita’s raunchy routine and thinks she’s very talented. Dita was delighted when he sent her a text recently.”

Beckham’s rep says the pair met through Victoria.

“Dita is really Victoria’s friend. I think David and Dita have met only once,” the spokesperson said.

Dita, real name, Heather Renée Sweet, is used to having celebrity fans.

The busty brunette recently received a variety of sexy satin dresses from ‘Entourage’ actor Jeremy Piven.

Dita’s lawyer Keith Fink said at the time, “She is single, and she’s not dating, so he should step up to the plate because there are a lot of guys interested.”
