Victoria Beckham (November 2003 - January 2009)

[tigerrouge]

I was re-reading her UK Glamour interview today, and she rightly says, there are lots of pictures where she smiles, it's just that nobody chooses to use them, prefering to give the impression that she's always miserable.

I like her smile, it has a schoolgirl charm about it, makes her look younger.

That HB Thailand cover is great, thanks for posting. Can't wait to see what magazine she turns up in next!

Miss D, the second pic you posted of Prince Charles is hysterical!!! It looks like he is "going for it", KWIM?!

You did not offend anyone, i know exactly what you mean.

The thing is, people that post at Daily Mail are just as bitter as that magazine that always attacks her, so i never read what they have to say since its ridicilous.The David comment shows how much they lack grace, because she has been dressing like this her entire life and its nothing new, besides no one knows what goes on between her and David so that is just plain stupid to say.Those comments dont represent reality, none of the gossip blogs and online outlets do imo.

The thing with VB is that she has alot of haters and alot of people who do appreciate her, but she never ever does or wears anything to get certain agenda across, its her will and love of fashion and the fact that she is never afraid to do her own thing, despite tons of detractors always following suit,that i love her for besides her style.

And at the end of the day when all people have to hate about you, is made up stories about your marriage, spewing venom about what you wear or how you look, i think that says alot about the person in question.She has been famous for a long time now, and has reached a Princess Diana level of fame and all the scrutiny and ridicule that comes with it.Yet she always keeps her cool demeanor and carries on with her life no matter what.When you think about it, she became a woman, a wife and a mother in the public eye and yet she never succumbed to the bad side of fame, no rehabs, no sex tapes, no breakdowns for Mrs.Beckham, just going through life with her Hermes bag by hand and marching on.

Very well said. The last sentence made me smile.

Yay, look what I got in the mail today. She's on the cover of the swedish issue of Glamour as well

Haha, and the cover says "Psst, she arrived to the interview wearing flipflops! It's quite funny that it becomes such a huge thing when she's not in high heels. I mean, they even put it on the cover

Very well stated Miss D!

I love the black outfit - and especially those shades!

Victoria's outfits continue to dazzle me!

[FASHIONLOVA]

she is famous but certainly not Princess Diana famous.
Victoria is not know all over the world like Princess Diana was and I doubt she s ll ever be.
She is know in the fashion world, by people who like fashion and perhaps the soccer world as wife OF and her Spice Girls from 10 years ago and that s it
The world in general does not know Victoria, like it did Princess Diana

She doesn t do charity work like Diana did and doesn t even try to help 3rd world countries.
so other than she wears high heels and carries an Hermes bag, I can t think of any relevant thing she did to help others who are less fortunate.
and yes people might say bad things about her in the press, but the day that dies, Victoria will be a has been that s been dropped just like her jeans line did at many stores.

ps: don t hate me for saying all this

Spice Girls was really huge back then so I think it's a pretty big deal being a part of that. I mean, they made pop history big time! But that's just my opinion.

And she's done things for the less fortunate people as well, but those kind of things doesn't get much attention because people love to hate her. And I guess they don't want to ruin the picture of her being a miserable bitch that can't smile. Yeah, I can continue this all day long so I think I'll stop here!

actually i dont think she s a miserable bitch, i found her extremelly funny in her show; but the spice girls thing only lasted about 2 years and if it wasn t for david she d be forgotten about by now
but anyway, she s still never gonna be as well known as Princess Diana

[Miss Dalloway]

Oh lord that was just an example no need to take out of the context like that!

She has reached a princess Diana level of fame imo, and has taken on along with David the medias attention and obssesion to the same extent, its something even the press admitts that after Dianas death it is the Beckhams that come near, i never intended to compare women and their characthers, geez some people!

[FASHIONLOVA]

yup some people

I actually know what you meant.You didnt claim that Victoria is as popular as Diana was, but that she has reached her level of fame, specially in UK, because its a valid comparison imo.Its the same kind of scrutiny and obsession the press had with Diana. Even her haircuts make the headlines, not to mention endless speculation about every detail of her life.

So i don´t think it was neccessary to go as faar as to predict what will happen when VB dies.

Also like Emilee said, Victoria was part of a band that made pop history, that even a decade after its conception people still love and appreciate their music, because its fun, she was not a part of a one hit wonder. Like, their last tour was huuuge, and it was after almost 10 years.

And she is certainly well known all around the world, and is one of the most famous women in the world, i mean we live in a celebrity obssesed culture and like Alexandra Shulman said in UK Vogue: VB reigns supreme.

As for her being famous because of David, that is the argument i will never ever understand, yes she sustained her fame through him, but she also contributed in making him the most recognized athlete in the world.

But yes they are nothing alike otherwise, which i didnt think you claimed in the first place.

[Miss Dalloway]

^^Oh man yes exactly,honestly i would never say that VB is like modern Diana or has the same impact on peoples lives like she did, that would be stupid, so no need for literal comparinsons of their lives.Dont think there will ever be anyone like her.

[Emilee]

Well said both of you!

Now, can someone share my hapiness because I got the Glamour-issue?


Also, it's cool that they used two different photos from the same shoot and not the same one as always:
