Victoria Beckham comes to America
I've never hated any diva that's been on reality tv more than this chick esp. after only 1 episode/hr of watching them. She, ...unlike many others I've seen loves to throw in everyone's face how rich she is every second of the day from "I would normally never open a door esp. my own" to "no, I drive a Bentley." Others know it but the proper response.......you would think is to hold it in while on camera instead of saying how much you hate Eddie Murphy or any other actor. I am not a Tom Cruise fan but have no idea how they can stand her. To me, they're so different (families). I can always see a nice sensitive side in many girls even if it's DEEP inside... but if her husband allowed her to have a butt wiper, she'd hire one. Only one word came to mind while watching her, but I can't say it here. Instead I'll substitute it with the word WORM. Add DIRTY in front of that. That's right, a dirty worm. |

|
| I would not waste one minute of my time watching anything about her or her husband. I don't think there is a brain cell between them. Of course now I have that stoopid Spice Girls song stuck in my head. NOOOOOOO... |
I didn't watch, and don't know much about either of them....but at least he has talent. He is, like a lot of professional athletes, grossly over-paid   |
| I liked the fact that she got out of a ticket already, then cheated on her test and got caught twice and got away with it, then tossed the rules book back at the examiner after he let her slide.
grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. This couple had(has?) the opportunity to be a big power couple like ben and Jennifer, or Tom and Nicole... maybe even much bigger. BUt I think she's either about to or has already blown it, becoming instead another member of the Hilton/Lohan/Ritchie ilk. Pity. That was the last time I'll glance at this show. |
| I felt bad for her personal asst.
I also kept thinking, she was a lying crack of bull when she said she spends the day chasing her kids around normally. She is too caught up in herself to notice anyone but herself or who has the camera. I'm sure she goes to her kids a few times a day but her nanny does the rest. |
Quote: I liked the fact that she got out of a ticket already, then cheated on her test and got caught twice and got away with it, then tossed the rules book back at the examiner after he let her slide.
I couldn't believe it either. |
| He'll probably wind up getting fired for it. |
| I didn't see the show....I wouldn't watch it. They have invaded the US as though they are some very special royality. I resent that. She's a singer, he's a jock. I'm tired of them being all over the news. And now, his ankle is hurt and he can't play anyways. I guess they brought him here to give soccer a boost, however he keeps calling it football. I don't think soccer will ever be that big here. To be honest, they both sorta turn my stomach. |
| oooooooooh....I LOVE Posh!!
I don't know why--I'm just fascinated with her! I haven't watched the show though. |
| The Paris Hiltons, Anna Nicole, Victoria Beckhams ad nauseum of the world get awway with their behavior because WE ALLOW IT, even encourage it. TV shows and magazines are created to showcase their absurd behavior. By watching the shows and purchasing the magazines we are saying that it's OK and we approve. We have no one to blame but ourselves.
That being said I too am guilty of watching the activities of the rich and famous with a horrified fascination that doesn't allow me to turn off the tv or put the magazine down! |
| I really don't mind Paris. I think she's spoiled rotten and blah blah blah, but she strikes me as a nice gal unlike her partner Nicole. I would never picture her cursing someone out for wanting an autograph, picture, or whatever. I've also watched every season of Simple Life and think she's hilarious, but that shouldn't surprise anyone.
I HATE Victoria. I knew by her name Posh Spice that she was a Spice Girl but until this show (previews, news, etc) could never pick her out of a crowd. She is someone I would never want to meet if given the opportunity or choose as favorite reality diva. She's just flat out rude. |
| I caught a little bit of it yesterday and enjoyed it. I loved looking at the houses she was looking at and it was hilarious to watch her have lunch with the Hollywood socialites. It was entertaining enough to watch when nothing better was on. I like David so I'm looking forward to him getting there. |
I couldn't believe her biggest concern when pulled over by the cops was that she was wearing flats.  |
| I enjoyed it too - I think she has a great sense of humor. |
I think she's a witch |
| The move of the Beckhams to the US is huge. You may not like/watch/enjoy soccer, but his movement to play here is the equivalent of Brett Favre or Payton Manning going to play football in Australia, or Rodger Clemens going to play baseball in Turkey. He may not single-handedly change everyone's perception of the game, or get you to watch a game on TV, but as with all professional sports, it is an entertainment business, and if you can turn your market from 12 year old boys in SoCal to a global market, why wouldn't you.
Their invasion into the US and the coverage it is getting is over the top, but is nothing compared to how it is being covered on a global scale In Europe and the Pacific Rim, they are considered royalty, justified or not. I am just old enough to remember the insane coverage of all movements JFK, Jr. If he was still alive, he may not have his own TV show, but you bet they press would still be covering his walks through Central Park with his dog and the fights with his girlfriend/wife. I think this thread is an interesting study of human perception. Paris Hilton is a convicted felon, who is famous because her grandfather started a well known business and is perceived as "nice". Yet there are probably a thousand pictures or videos on the internet of her acting in some way you would be embarrassed of if she was your daughter. Outside of her glamour walk out of prison and talking to the press, has anyone actually seen her spending time with "fans" and signing autographs, or saying anything intelligent outside of "that's hot"? Yet VB is deemed a "Dirty Worm" or "Witch". Her world may be originally based on his fame and her Spice Girl career, but almost everywhere else outside North America she is a fairly successful business woman through the fashion industry and the underground dance music scene. She does live on a different plain than probably 99.9% of us here. So she complains about her Bentley being dirty, or that her salmon salad wasn't flown in directly from the deep sea. Scale it down to the everyman world and it's no different then someone complaining that they didn't get the correct dipping sauce they wanted when they went through the drive-thru at Chick-fil-A. But there isn't a TV show about that. Be prepared, this isn’t just about Becks helping the LA Galaxy team. It’s also about both he and Victoria taking over the last global frontier. For full disclosure, I am sure I am biased on this because I am a soccer fan and fan of the style/energy VB brings to the table and due to work live in a more global centric world than most people. She can be over-the-top, but she hasn't been to prison or rehab. FWIW, not all football is of the pointy ball kind. The US is one of the only countries that calls it soccer. Becks may need more than a couple days to adjust his life-long vernacular to the US. |
Please don't be offended, it's not directed to you! 
Is she any different than Hilton or Ritchie? She didn't bother to get a driver's license. When given a break, she tosses the driving manual back at the guy (You want to be near her on the road?). It's the attitude of "the rules don't apply to me." Maybe in England she's treated as a Queen, but here I hope she'll be treated like the conceited Paris that either she is, or is pretending to be. Or should I be saying Britney? Maybe this is what Britney would look like if she had married Roger Clemens and moved to Japan with him. Is that a better analogy? Who is giving her PR advice? |
| PS Paris went to prison because she was held in contempt of court for violating driving rules, I think. I fail to see how differentiating her from "VB" as a felon for that (when it is precisely VB's driving and lack of respect for the DMV that I am concerned about) makes any sense. |
| Look, all we have is what she gave to us last night. Did you even see it? Maybe with time she will grow on us, but being 'successful' doesn't make her any less of a dirty worm. She even said a few times last night that most people view her as a .....similar word.
And imo, while millions of people around the world worship Beckham, I don't see him being the next Jordan to MOST American people's eyes. Just those that already do or have a little kid playing soccer. I don't think he's going to make soccer all the rage they're hoping he will. While him coming here is a BIG deal, they tried to do this twenty-five yrs ago with the popularity of Pele (who was about 1,000 times better that Beckham) and even put him in a movie with Stallone. ..............but it didn't work. |
| No offense taken.
As soon as I see a picture of her underwear-less crotch or a night vision sex vid (or both) I will put her in the Britt/Paris category. For me, there is no gray area on this. Paris spent three weeks in jail. She's a convicted felon. Paris' DUI trumps anything you saw last night. |
| I appreciate Beckham in the football (i.e soccer) sense, being a huge fan and player myself but, I can also appreciate the aesthtetic of DB in the W pictorial. I can not believe that this thread is dominated by Posh's tude and I am amused that more of the ladies on this board are not discussing DB's rear in the W photospread. I barely even notice Victoria when she is standing next to David because I am only thinking about his mean ability to cross the ball or his fine tush.
Check out the photo spread and let's change the tone of things. Who cares about this chick? Link to The Bosh |
| Well, the thread is about her show, which I hear won't have much of him in it. However, I DO think BOTH are very good-looking. They both have physically fit bodies. |

The soccer bit is a different topic now, but one I will chime in on. The old NASL is COMPLETELY different than what/where the MLS is now. Why didn't the NASL work? The Cosmos were hemorraging money to sign Beckenbaur, Pele and the likes, while teams like the San Jose Earthquakes and the Boston Teamen had no money. Despite the introduction of Pele to the US, the league folded not because of the soccer and the players in the league, but the business model was flawed. I am not sure how the movie roles work into the equation, but Pele was a bit player in "Victory". Becks had a movie named after him, without needing to even be in the movie. Becks is not here to be the next Jordan. Jordan transcended the sport. There wiill never be another Jordan. The NBA would be nowhere near where it is today if it wasn't for him. Even Magic and Bird couldn't bring the sport to where Jordan did. Becks will not change the eyes of all Americans on soccer. For most people that is a lost cause. Soccer is very much a participation sport. But what Becks brings to the MLS table is exposure in the global market, not only to the fans but also those players that may want to give the US a try. This is not just about soccer. It's about entertainment dollars and big business. Companies like Adidas, Pepsi and Gillette have a lot to gain from this move. Every place Becks, and for the sake of it Victoria, the talk show host ot newspaper caption will mention the MLS. The league can't pay enough for that type of advertising. The Asia market is being attacked right now by every sports market in the US (NBA has Yao Ming, MLB has Ichiro and the NFL is planing a game in China). It would be bad business for the MLS to pass on the chance to have one of the most well-recognized soccer personalities in the world signed in the league. It is a bonus that he is still playing at a top level. Pele came to the US as his career was winding down at 35 yrs old. There should be no mistakes made here. The MLS is not after changing your feelings on soccer. It is about big business and the bottom line. |

But I feel it's the same attitude of "the rules don't apply to me" that got Hilton into trouble . Only time will tell if she'll change it, if it was exaggerated for the show, or she'll continue to slide into LA trashdom.
Hey, I wish her well if she wants to be a positive role model. |
| My dislike of VB has nothing to do with soccer or her husband. She is a witch, plain and simple (I like to use another word but won't). Her air of "entitlement" permeates every public appearance she makes, interviews and reality shows. The same sense of entitlement that accompanies others of celebrity status. THAT is what puts her in the same catagory as the aforementioned not whether she is a convicted felon or not.
Wealth has nothing to do with it. Bill and Melinda Gates are possibly among the list of "wealthiest people" in America and yet they are humble and good and I suspect don't demand special food or treat those that serve them badly. |
I didnt see the show, and know NOTHING about these people....but, Whenever I see reality shows, celebrity interviews, etc, I always find myself picturing a director off screen yelling: "CUT! no, no,no, come on, you can be ruder and wierder than THAT cant you??"  |

I don't think it's a bad attitude, she's just, well, British, lol. Us Americans,I think, read a lot more into their tone and ways than what's really there. Disclaimer: I do not mean any offense to any of our British forum members. I don't mean any negative at all, just pointing out that we're different. Besides, you all know you laugh at Americans. |
| This has made me laugh!!
Firstly because many people seem to dislike VB and rant at how much the press follow her and David and what a waste of time and space they are yet and how much time has been spent here discussing them!! I agree that she didn't do herself any favours in the show but the PA was also an actress and not the true PA. I took most of it very tongue in cheek. I thought her having lunch with the woman doing dolphin impressions was the funniest and scariest thing I have ever seen! They were great adverts to avoid cosmetic surgery!!
David Beckham is a HUGE HUGE football (sorry soccer) star across all nations where football (soccer) is the national game. he has a huge amount of talent and has done alot to help kids in get into the game! She is a great business woman who manages to keep them in the media and gets them MILLIONS in sponsorship deals. Like them or hate them the press will follow them and they will be in the media for a while yet!! I have no preference towards them except to say good luck to them if you can cash in on people following youwhy not! I wouldn't mind being a penny behind them! |
| That is funny, but misses why I am talking about them. I'm looking for someone to say "No, she really isn't like that, the show has portrayed her all wrong, she is really a good role model". The closest I've gotten is "she's a successful business woman" from two posters. So is Hilton.
So for now she's on my "yet another self-important celeb" list. Signed, Self-important webmaster |
| Well, she is no different to any celeb really!
She gets stuff free, loves herself, lives a great life and uses the media to her own advantage! She isn't a great role model for anything but she isn't all bad either!! people either love her or hate her! I don't think the show did her justice but you just don't know how it was edited!! |
Tasker's Mom wrote: Wealth has nothing to do with it. Bill and Melinda Gates are possibly among the list of "wealthiest people" in America and yet they are humble and good and I suspect don't demand special food or treat those that serve them badly.
I think, though, that you can't compare the Gates to the Beckhams. The Gates are famous/wealthy for his business venture of computers, which turned out to be very lucrative for him, but he wasn't in it for fame and celebrity. VB started as a Spice Girl--with the intent to be famous and make lots of money and be in the spotlight. They're a whole different scenario. Not that it makes snotty behavior okay by any means...it's just a different mindset. Personally, I don't think that most celebrities have to be good role models. The Spice Girls didn't set out to be preteen idols--they wanted to be regular pop stars, so it's not their fault that they were all of a sudden popular with a different sort of audience. I think people should be able to see celebrities as people--many of them spoiled--and leave it at that. Not try and make them role models for anything... By the way--I've never heard of a 'dirty worm'--what does it mean?  |
| My point was that wealth alone does not entitle someone to behave that way. Another poster defended some of the actions with the "they can afford it so why not" (my words) defense. I would NEVER put them in the same "catagory". |

For someone who had never seen her outside of hearing her music, people will find her to be a disappointment. UNLIKE Nicole/Paris, etc... she strikes me as someone who should have a LOT more class especially when you hear who she hangs with. What "I" find funny is how many people are getting worked up over it. So what, we don't like her. On ANY reality show, you go in saying you love or hate the person based on what you see. You can write that you think she means it tongue in cheek or that she's hilarious, but to get offended is just silly. Many of the women that have had their own show are ALSO successful business women. That hardly makes them more credible as no one is saying she has no talent. Barney, this is a pretty G rated forum. You'll have to send me a signed slip from your parents if you really can't figure out what the word means.  Or just use your imagination as it's pretty obvious |
| I know it's a derogatory term, I just don't know what other term it 'relates' to that you chose to use it instead of the other...I'm so embarrassed by my lack of dirty word knowledge! |

So for now she's on my "yet another self-important celeb" list. Signed, Self-important webmaster Well...she may not come across as the nicest person, but she doesn't seem to be someone a ton of girls are trying to emulate either. She and Paris may both be great businesswomen, but is there a sex tape of Posh? Has she had several run-ins with the law? Is she a notorious partier and user of drugs? I really don't know about any of those, but if I don't know about them that means a lot of people don't...unlike with Paris. |
| Posh does not strike me AT ALL as someone who wouldn't make a sex tape. Not even sure how that is important since it was a boyfriend she had sex with who later released the tape w/o her permission and received lots and lots of money. Posh is married. Don't think she had that problem. As I write this, I DO find it silly that I'm defending paris b/c I do think she is also a dirty promiscuous person.
The drug thing to me really holds no value. I'd bet money Posh did her share as a Spice girl and partied her heart out. Telling me she didn't would be hard for me to swallow. I didn't see Spice Girls in every issue of the Inquirer while they were popular, so I doubt they were as followed as Paris was by the media. NOT because they sat at home working so very hard, but the demand at the time. Jennifer Aniston and Brad (as are many actors/actresses) are known to be druggies at home, but the media doesn't try to uncover that b/c it's not as juicy as the single wild heiress. Still confused to why any of this is important when evaluating her behavior on the show. |
| Why does she have to be a role model? Can't she just be entertaining? It's a TV show and this thread alone says that they're getting exactly the reaction that they wanted-- people are talking about it and generating even more publicity. I think to look at any reality tv show as anything remotely close to real is only going to disappoint. It's less heavily scripted than a sitcom but, nonetheless, just another comedy.
I've whined my way out of many a speeding ticket, gotten really bummed when my food came with the wrong sauce and don't like to go out in public looking like a scrub either. Guess I'm a jerk, too. |
| She doesn't. Not sure why people are arguing. ...but we have every right to think she came off the way we suggested.
Your statement wouldn't make you a jerk, but why would it make her a jerk either? Were there plenty of scenes that made that scene only add value to someone saying she is self-absorbed, pretentious, or anything else that fits in that category. Trying to figure out who will answer her door and being disappointed that she had to as she struggles to see if somoeone else will step up to the plate because it was beneath her makes her a jerk. Again, so what that was our first impression was she was exactly as described? We (americans) like people making an idiot of themselves especially when they think it makes them look cool. Maybe by the end of it, she will come out to be a hero to all. I doubt it. Jessica Simpson never did, but it was still someone many people couldn't stop watching. |

So, it's wrong to star in your own sexcapade on video. LMAO. |
| I'm more confused than ever by that comment esp. going off anything I said.
If I had to take a guess at what you're suggesting.. I would say the answer is no, I don't think there's anything wrong with videotaping yourself having sex with your boyfriend. Why would there be? The knowingly publishing it is what's wrong. The bf published it w/o her permission purely for fame and money. I then followed it by saying, this is not me saying she isn't a dirty girl in general. edit:: my ????????? reply was to ButtersStotch who deleted hers. Wish my reply were deleted as well so it wouldn't look so out of place. |
| The "Guest's" post above is he/she is making a very valid point. Her show was about publicity. You felt enough emotion to come here and post your thoughts on her. VB and her team is getting exactly what they wanted out of the show. Introduction to the US and residual publicty. |
| Ultimately, this is my point on the comments in the thread. To come into the thread with guns blazing using pretty strong words like "dirty worm", "jerk", "self-absorbed" then follow that with a "Paris is nice" comment and not expect a reaction is unrealistic.
This conversation probably could have been stirred up just the same with using Michael Moore, Bill Mahr, Bill O'Reilly or Keith Olbermann as subjects. Hell, why do celebrities need to be role models? If some are looking for role models, put down the US Weekly, turn off Entertainment Tonight and even turn off ESPN. TV shows and OK! magazine are not real life. |
| You originally wrote: If my ?????? is about the Guests post...
... and it wasn't. ButtersStotch deleted her post which basically said "huh?" to my post.
Quote: VB and her team is getting exactly what they wanted out of the show. Introduction to the US and residual publicty.
And there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. Me talking about THE SHOW is because that's what I do... talk about what comes on tv on the Entertainment board. I also change my opinion throughout the show, which is why we reply after each episode until the season is done. |
| We also need to remember VB has only been in this country a couple weeks. Next year at this time we may have a whole list of "sins" to add to her resume. Of course, she could also become a model citizen and role model in the coming months , her recent bad behavior could just be a result of culture shock and jet lag |

Okay, VB is no Moore, Mahr, O'Reilly, or Olbermann. The words used aren't strong words when talking about any reality show that's been discussed on this forum or on tv. I'm SO CONFUSED by that statement. Again, did you watch the episode? I always have a great image of many actors in my head but when I see them in interviews or real life, I'm completely turned off by how stupid (or whateveR) they are. Maybe if you saw all the things she did in the first episode, you would see where we are coming from, even if we disagreed. This has been a topic on many forums I go to, and many people thought the same thing Tasker's mom, Ron, and I thought. I wonder why? Many of the same people arguing on this forum has said the same "harsh" words about many other divas (paris, nicole, jessica simpson, brittney). She is definitely no different. Who said she had to be a role model? I've seen this mentioned a few times in the thread and wondered who you're arguing this point to. That doesn't mean we can't dislike someone's actions and talk about her first episode. What was there to talk about but the over the top things she did, which were viewed as many of the described words to many. edit: And what I mean by Paris is... She IS exactly like the rest of the girls always in the media. She's a dirty worm which pretty much sums up many of the words used to describe Victoria. However, on "reality tv" ...she IS relatively nice. It's her sidekick that acts like Victoria did. They even made a point in one of the seasons (when they weren't friends) to make Nicole do all the bad things while Paris says "I'm the nice one." The label witch isn't what most people use to describe her. It's usually dirty worm. My point was she could have shown herself to love America, been the diva she is, but not treat others like crap as well as cheat and disrespect the rules others had to follow (her test). |

Words gathered into sentences, gathered into paragraphs, organized into chapters, printed on paper and bound between a cover. Generally you read it but they can be used to weight things down or balance a wobbly table. Unless you're talking about an ebook and then that's a whole different thing.
P.S. Not a big fan of this type of reality show documenting uber rich people wandering their way through life but I LOVE her haircut. It may make an appearance here soon......... |

Me too! My last haircut was supposed to be modeled after it (not the blonde part, just the cut), but I ended up wanting to wear a hat for 2 months
It's been 4 1/2 months since the haircut and I'm just NOW thinking about maybe getting another haircut. |
| ...and my friends, THAT is EXACTLY why she is a role model.
The 13 and 15 year olds will be modeling themselves after her fashion, and after her behavior. Some older tweens too, apparently. |
| LMAO |
| I can't help whose head the haircut is attached to. |
| I can't wait for next week when David Beckham does his bit!!!

I don't think that copying a person's hairstyle, or even clothes, makes them a role model. It makes them a fashion trend starter, but if I like VB's hair, it has nothing to do with whether or not I like her as a person. |
| Maybe not to you, but how about to a 11, 12, 13 year old girl? |
| Guys, it was a pure set up - all tongue and cheek 90% of that film was dramatised completely lol David Beckham is a genuine nice guy, most definately not as you guys say a "jock" no no no. Must be the British sense of humour I guess - you either get it or not. |
| BTW El Gato - I love Caddyshack, one of my fav films !!!!!!!!! |
| I just caught the show last night and I thought she was hilarious! I think people think she's snotty because she doesn't smile that much with her delivery, but I thought her interaction with the DMV test giver was great banter. He was cracking a smile the whole time. How do we know that what we are seeing on that show is real anyhow? I loved that she didn't want to be without her high heels for one minute!
I'm not a huge soccer fan but I think Beckham will be helping the US league's lackluster arena attendance in a big way. My neighbor is a referee/official (?) for the Philadelphia Kixx games and usually you can't give those tickets for those games away. I'm sure there will be a full house when the Galaxy comes to town. |

I think people think she's snotty because she doesn't smile that much with her delivery, but I thought her interaction with the DMV test giver was great banter. He was cracking a smile the whole time. How do we know that what we are seeing on that show is real anyhow? I loved that she didn't want to be without her high heels for one minute!I thought the same thing. She's clever and fun to watch. Did you see her talking to Perez Hilton? She was surprised he was nicer than she expected him to be. |

| I watched this last night too, I thought she was very funny. I don't get what there is to be all up in arms about? |
| Actually blows my mind people are so offended that we viewed her differently. So what!
Sometimes you change your mind about someone as the show progresses too. Never seen a show like this where people always agreed on how they felt about someone. But, again so what! The more trifling, dramatic, funny or maybe over the top the person, the more entertaining. |
| I watched the show last night and I was giggling through a lot of it. I thought she was funny and witty and had a great sense of humor. |
