As if Cristiano Ronaldo wasn't a dreamboat already...

Sure, the soccer stud can act some type of way from time to time, but he showed off a very admirable trait recently when he stuck up for a young fan who was getting laughed at by his peers.

During an interview at a promotional event in Japan, Ronaldo found himself being questioned by a young Japanese boy who was attempting to speak to the star in his native tongue, Portuguese.

So sweet, right? Of course. Understandably so, the young boy would run into some trouble pronouncing some words at times, which drew snickers from the crowd. That's when it was Cristiano to the rescue!

Ronaldo began looking bothered by the laughs, and exclaimed, "Why they smile? He speaks good Portuguese! They should be happy, because he tries very hard!"

After a scolding from the Real Madrid player, the crowd began applauding the young fan and his efforts to speak a different language to the mega star.

Hey, at least this boy was able to get words out of his mouth. We're not sure we could say the same if we were that close to Ronaldo.
