Get Victoria Beckham to number 1

162 replies

Wintertime2025 · 21/01/2026 20:45

just saw a thread on this on Twitter. Apparently her song ‘not such an innocent girl’ has gone to number 12. She has never had a number 1 single. They had it positively for her albeit the title of the song seems unfortunate.

i have no idea what went down but I do love Britain's sense of humour

My god, I forgot that she used to have a normal body, not a skeletal one.

So have I. And like Lady Becks, I'm also tone-deaf. So if I record myself murdering singing a song and release it please could you lovely lot get me loadsa money to number one please.

To be fair though it's not as bad as that awful Kylie song XMAS and that got to number one. A family member of mine is a fan. He never said it was awful but just said well it's not one of her best. It only got to number one because it was Kylie not because it's a good song.

Its No 1 now on two platforms!

Gahr · 23/01/2026 19:54

She has negative talent. Just dire.

Also the British have a very strong sense of fair and what Brooklyn and Nicola are doing is not fair. So we'll support Posh, even those that don't really like Posh and Becks can see what a nasty thing this is to do your parents/in laws.

Oh, give it a rest.

Please let's not resurrect 90s singers who were crap vocalists to begin with. I think standards are higher these days & your Anne-Maries, Jessie Js, Dua Lipas etc can actually sing. In the 90s all you needed was the right look , a few dance moves and a bit of auto tune

ThatsPlentyIsa · 23/01/2026 19:28

You know who I feel really sorry for? Posh’s eyebrows. That semi-alien no-eyebrows make-up look. Blimey. Just watching that video for Not Such an Innocent Girl makes my entire forehead sting in sympathy. What were we thinking, etc etc.

AWFUL

BertieWoostersChaps · 23/01/2026 16:18

This song is truly and utterly shit. My ears!!

Daytimetellyqueen · 23/01/2026 11:44

I noticed her song was played on Love Island last night - love it!

Rainershine · 23/01/2026 09:51

I agree that Out of Your Mind is a much better tune. And the lyrics are very fitting!

I reckon for someone so image obsessed she’s more embarrassed about this resurfacing vs the fallout!

😂 Me too. And I can't really blame her. It's not even so bad it's good. It's just baaaadddd!

PinkPanther57 · 23/01/2026 09:36

How much money will it generate for her?

MsTanyaMcQuoid · 23/01/2026 09:22

MsSmartShoes · 23/01/2026 09:00

At over £100!

Show quote history

It’s not cheap. But worth it. Her perfumes are even more expensive, but VB Portofino is the most gorgeous scent I’ve ever used.
I’ll support her in what she’s good at.

MsSmartShoes · 23/01/2026 09:00

MsTanyaMcQuoid · 22/01/2026 20:51

That’s a no from me.
But I will jump online and order her foundation drops. They’re incredible! And I think that would probably make her happier anyway.

Unclear messages for the win! All anyone can definitely say about any of this is that Brits love participating in celebrity gossip.

Bake · 23/01/2026 07:05

On the iTunes chart this morning she has two songs in the top 10 and another in the top 100. The Dane Bowers one is at number 7.

I disagree entirely.

MissSophiaGrace · 22/01/2026 14:01

Maybe I've lost my sense of humour but I don't find it hilarious. It's an awful song and I'm confused why the public would want to give her anymore money?

it's not you.

It's not hilarious, it's not 'British humour'. It's just ridiculous.

FateAmenableToChange · 22/01/2026 19:49

God no she’d consider it support for her horrific parenting behaviour

Makemydaypunk · 22/01/2026 19:43

They should have picked “let your head go” it’s a much better song, the video is funny and the end shot particularly fitting!

Get Victoria Beckham to number 1

AnAlpacaForChristmasPleaseSanta · 22/01/2026 14:13

@mumofoneAloneandwell I'm blaming you for this. I had blocked that bloody monstrosity song from my mind until you brought it up the other day. Now we're going to get tortured by it with all the airplay it'll get if it makes number 1 😬.

Mind you I suspect Posh isn't that chuffed either. Something tells me this was a career stage she'd also like to forget 😂.
