Lord Sebastian Coe, chairman of the London Organizing Committee for the Olympic and Paralympic Games 2012, told a press conference here that the  segment in the closing ceremony on Sunday would be "young and vibrant".

It will "show the cultural diversity, the great city of London, modern and contemporary dances and elements of Olympics and Paralympics."

The eight-minute contribution to the finale was said to cost 2 million pounds (3.74 million U.S. dollars). Beckham will arrive on a red double-decker bus, according to earlier media reports.
