Wayne Rooney danced at David Beckham’s house party in 2006 shortly after breaking his metatarsal bone, KSI and Calfreezy’s tour manager claims.
Rooney broke the base of his fourth metatarsal bone in his right foot after colliding with Paulo Ferreira against Chelsea in the final of the month of the 2005/06 season.
His inclusion in Sven-Göran Eriksson’s England squad for the World Cup in Germany was seriously questioned.
‘She [England players] were all there,” said John, who hosted the projections at Rowneybury House at the “Full Length and Fabulous” party, on Jack Matees Happy Hour.
“There’s Rooney, and as I said, because he hurt his toe, he couldn’t play. To his credit he was one of the best strikers in the world at the time and the fact that he couldn’t go.

“There he was on the dance floor kicking it away. Me and a lot of others were like “what the f***?”.
‘Real? And yet you can’t put on your boots and do a little for England – w***er!’
Two days before the final squad was due to be announced, Rooney returned home from England’s training camp in Germany for a scan which showed his foot had healed.
He missed England’s first group game, appearing as a substitute against Trinidad and Tobago, but his tournament ended in tears after he was sent off for stomping on Ricardo Carvalho in the quarter-final.
The guests included such English stars as Rooney (with then-fiancée Coleen McLoughlin), Michael Owen, Ashley Cole, Gary Neville, Frank Lampard, John Terry and Paul Robinson.
Other guests included rap magnate P Diddy – who helped choose the music for the after party party – former Spice Girls Emma Bunton and Melanie Brown, Christian Slater, Will Young and Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne.
England manager Eriksson and his then-girlfriend Nancy Dell’Olio received a late phone call after initially being left out.
Robbie Williams, James Brown and Julio Iglesias provided the music.
Up for grabs at a charity auction was a £1 million Asprey diamond necklace, a £300,000 limited edition Bentley, a £40,000 Harley-Davidson and £600,000 worth of diamond-encrusted his and hers watches from Jacob & Co.
