Am I the only person who thinks Victoria Beckham looked better in her early Spice Girl days...

I think it's not because she looks bad but she might "look better" if she had a bit more fat especially on her face.
I would look better without drinking, smoking and sun.

I don't think it makes people judgy tk point this out.

I think it's mentioned became people generally put weight on as they age, not drop stones as V has done. She was naturally pretty with a lovely figure in the early days. She has now deliberately lost so much weight, parades around in oversized clothing and sadly her face is now drawn and almost skeletal looking skeletal looking.

Of course she did. I looked better in the early Spice Girl days as well, I was 21 when Wannabe came out!

But she looks pretty good. As do I, about three stone heavier no doubt.

Lives in fashion world where being size 0 is feted. if she is happy with that that's fine. remember what kate Moss said? 'Nothing tastes as good as being thin feels'

I just like her

I’m quite sure I looked better 30 years ago, but there isn’t enough money or real estate and there aren’t enough jewels in the universe to persuade me to go back and repeat it all over again - especially not just for my stupid body.
Once was quite enough, thank you very much.

It’s really not “the done thing” - most rich Hollywood types still carry their own children rather than rent a womb. Regardless, it’s so weird to praise and respect someone for simply NOT choosing to rent someone’s womb. Really weird.

In the celebrity world surrogacy is the done thing and she could have easily used her millions but she chose not to. I personally only have one child because I found pregnancy really hard and I respect any woman who has carried and produced any babies.

Women should be praised more for growing and birthing babies.

Yes, with the obligatory dash of skinny shaming thrown in. That’s about the size of it. As if it’s ok to bitch about appearance as long as you make it clear that you’re criticising for losing weight, not putting it on, because that would be unacceptable. Yawn.

The bar is very low indeed low if someone earns respect simply for carrying their own babies and not renting an another woman’s womb! Sheesh.

Yes there are various photos of her smiling when she was much younger in her early Spice Girl days... try finding one from the last couple of decades.

What like these..

You must not know many people. She isn't 'stunning' by any stretch.

Maybe you should do a bit more research before making a bit of a dick of yourself.

I remember David posting a story on Instagram mocking her for only ever eating fish and steamed veg. I thought he was taking the piss but then watched the docu and when he made the family Sunday dinner, she just had fish…

I think she looks lovely in both pics though fwiw, she is naturally slim although admittedly much slimmer now than she was in the 90s. Age can do that to some people though tbf.

I've just googled Victoria Beckham smiling, there's plenty of photos, both posed and natural

Maybe you should do a bit more research before diagnosing someone with psychiatric problem 😂

I think it's just part of her trademark, like Anna Wintour's sunglasses.

Yants you’re not a diagnostician (or are you? Is this your job perhaps?). She has decided smiling in photos is not for her. It’s just her look. She’s just posing for the cameras. She smiles IRL. I don’t think you can say with such “knowledge” that her behaviour is either obsessive, all consuming or indicative of some deep psychiatric issue. How do you actually know that for sure. You’ve just thrown some random generalised “diagnosis” out there with very little to qualify it. We should stop judging this woman. And all women. Stop scrutinising them. Stop the negativity. Stop judging her children. Her look. What she must eat. Stop diagnosing her with EDs or psychiatric issues. It’s nasty. It perpetuates the idea that woman are there to be judged. It is unhealthy and this thread and many of the people on it should be ashamed.

And yes her make up is really lovely. Both what she wears and sells.

Is your dad in the public eye as much as VB? How often does he get photographed, both with and without his consent? As frequently as VB?

For her to ensure she's literally never seen to be smiling regardless of the situation must take a huge amount of will power and mental energy from her, to the point where I'd say it is obsessive and all consuming.

I'd say a suitable description of someone having a psychiatric issue is when they display such obsessive, all consuming behaviour.

VB carried four healthy babies herself I respect her for this alone as she didn’t go down the surrogacy route. She’s rich and famous and has made the most of her opportunities and had a lot of hate for it. I respect her more each year and her eyeliner is the best.

Some of you need to take a long, hard look at yourselves.

OP, given that you started and continued this thread with your appalling posts, I think you're the one who should be taking a long, hard look at yourself

I agree, unnecessary really.
Besides a degree doesn't necessarily guarantee a good job these days anyway.

😂

I think she looks great now & I love her make up, just wish I could afford it more often 🙄Her look now is very "neutral" which is far better than the garish, not necessaarily just her but the rest of the 90's/2000's was very Footballers Wives

Yants “clearly suffering from sort of psychiatric issue” because she doesn’t smile in photos. You sure about that..? My dad refuses to smile in photos. Is he clearly suffering from a psychiatric issue as well?

DarkDarkDark me too. Shameful snobbery.
