High-Maintenance Mom Victoria Beckham

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Clothing, Style, Rumors

Victoria Beckham's casual styleInternational fashionista used to spend two hours getting ready to take her sons to school.

The singer-turned-fashion designer - who has children Brooklyn, 10, Romeo, seven and four-year-old Cruz with her soccer star husband - insisted on sticking to an elaborate grooming routine in order to look her best when performing everyday tasks in Los Angeles.

A source said, “She was spending over two hours getting ready, just to take the kids to school!”

However, the 35-year-old star has now embraced a more relaxed dress sense during the day time to help her avoid the constant media scrutiny.

“You wouldn’t believe what a difference it’s made to her life. Cooling her love affair with high heels has been the latest big development. She still cares about her image, but it was becoming a real burden. At first, it was hard for her to accept that in Hollywood, A-list stars go out of their way to dress down to avoid attention. Only wannabes dress up to try and generate interest in themselves. In many ways, she was undermining her credibility with the locals. She just didn’t fit in.”

From now on, Victoria has vowed to take a more laid back approach to her appearance. The friend added, “Victoria doesn’t regret the way she looked, but by the same token she certainly doesn’t want to repeat the mistakes of what she calls the ‘Posh and Becks days.’”

Victoria Beckham Talks Salads and Sex With David

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Rumors

Victoria Beckham steps out in a cloche hatOne of the many things I love about Victoria Beckham? Her brutal honesty.

‘I’m not going to lie - I’m not one of those people that says, “Oh, I eat hamburgers.’ I eat salad. And I start off every day with a double espresso. Then I get on the running machine and I run like a bat out of hell,” divulged the singer-turned-fashion designer.

Quick to quell any hopes that we can still somehow eat hamburgers and get to a size 2, Posh Spice also squashed any rumors regarding fissures in her marriage to international soccer star David Beckham. When asked whether she prefers sleep to sex, Victoria was quick with the humor: “I’m getting into bed with David Beckham every night, so, you know, there’d be something wrong if I said, ‘sleep.’”

Speaking of good sports, she also doesn’t mind if you call her by her former stage name! “I’m so respectful of the Spice Girls, and I love all the girls dearly, but it’s nice now that people know my name. But either is a compliment. I mean, I’ve been called a lot worse.”

Brooklyn BeckhamCelebrity fashion designer Victoria Beckham is “delighted” that her son is undertaking charity work.

Brooklyn Beckham, the star’s eldest child with husband David Beckham, visited poverty-stricken state Kentucky with Save The Children after learning about the state at his exclusive school in Los Angeles.

The 10-year-old youngster played soccer with children at Manchester Elementary School and presented them with shoes and backpacks, before joining in with an after-school reading group. He and Victoria then went to read with children at nearby Big Creek Elementary school.

“I’m pleased Brooklyn is learning that by helping and joining other children he can play a role in making his generation the greatest yet. Seeing Save the Children’s innovative programs in action, I know that we can begin to reverse the childhood poverty crisis,” Victoria said.

Melanie Brown, Melanie Chisholm, Emma Bunton, and Geri Halliwell went for a night on the town without Victoria Beckham, who seemed to have her hands full at New York Fashion Week.

Victoria Beckham Explains the Pout

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies

Victoria BeckhamIt turns out may just be like the rest of us.

The singer-turned-fashion-designer - who is famous for pouting at public events - says there’s a reason why she rarely smiles. “I do have my insecurities. Maybe that’s why I look a little bit serious. The kind of person who’s going to stand on the red carpet and have the big grin - I’m not like that,” she said. “I want to get in there, do what I’ve got to do, and get home to my kids.”

Victoria - who has sons Brooklyn, 10, Romeo, 7, and Cruz, 4, with soccer star husband David - is also good at recognizing her weaknesses.

The 35-year-old star, who has previously mocked her own performance in 1997 movie Spice World, admits she doesn’t have the talent to be an actress even if she wanted to. She said in an interview with America’s Elle magazine: “I know my boundaries - I know what I’m good at and what I’m not good at.”

Following the departure of full-time judge Paula Abdul, who is believed to have quit the show over an alleged pay dispute, a series of famous faces have filled her place, including former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham, hip-hop artist Mary J. Blige, and “I Kissed a Girl” singer Katy Perry.
