Cold & fake?? It most be exhausting to be that immaculately presented and posing/pouting 24/7.
Why doesn't she just chill out & be more natural?

I did used to agree with that! But recently, I started following her on twitter and have seen a different side to her

I get ridiculously excited when she posts pics ( usually of clothing) and they are photographed on ( i assume) hers and David's bed!!

She seems nice on twitter

AnyoneForTennis · 27/06/2012 17:03

Oh, and be careful...... She's a mumsnetter!

Pootles2010 · 27/06/2012 17:04

Well, you've only ever seen her with a camera in her face (I assume anyway). I imagine she's somewhat different with her family/friends, as would most people.

PandaWatch · 27/06/2012 17:04

I have no idea what she's like 24/7 - all I know of her is what the press choose to tell me and what I see from a few paparazzi photos.

Mrsjay · 27/06/2012 17:05

she Justtakes her whole persona too serious she is trained to be V B and thats all she seems to know, I saw her in the paper today with the restof the spice girls and she looked like she was uncomfortable , I am not a huge beckhams franchise fan though,

germyrabbit · 27/06/2012 17:05

as if she would have time to post on here!! lol

i agree with op but lots lurve her

think i'm just too old to 'get' it and find them quite boring, not much personality and her fashion is very samey

Mrsjay · 27/06/2012 17:06

I meant beckham brand obviously

PandaWatch · 27/06/2012 17:06

But would she be as successful if she didn't have that persona? Methinks Mrs B is having the last laugh...

Jins · 27/06/2012 17:07

I'm a bit of a fan actually but don't rate her OH much Grin

Mrsjay · 27/06/2012 17:07

yes panda of course she is posing and pouting its her image but its kinda boring now,

yellowraincoat · 27/06/2012 17:08

I think she seems funny. She's done a couple of interviews where she's come across as very sound and actually quite shy.

Mintyy · 27/06/2012 17:09

Why do people always say VB is a Mumsnetter? Is that actually true? Do you know for certain? Or is it just a rumour?

MistyRocks · 27/06/2012 17:09

i like her and i think she is stunning

i don't know why so many people seem to have it in for her

BunnyLebowski · 27/06/2012 17:09

She's awful.

All the Vicky fans will be along now to defend her by saying she's hilarious and just won't smile because of her bad teeth (yes, because multi-millionaires have no way off fixing their teeth Hmm) but I'm not buying it.

She comes across as an image-obsessed, zoolander-posing moose with a stick up her her arse who is incapable of letting herself go and having a good time for fear of gaining a single ounce.

Who tweeted a picture of her big birthday treat which was a fruit platter .

YANBU.

Mintyy · 27/06/2012 17:10

I think she looks ludicrous on those Spice Girl reunion pics, sorry if that offends you Vic my love, but tis true.

becstarsky · 27/06/2012 17:10

I disagree. I don't see why famous people should show their emotions to us - I don't think we have any right to see how they feel just because they're famous. I get more turned off by the ones who do the 'my broken nail hell' type stories in the press, or act all vulnerable as a way of manipulating their media image, or post their 'Look! I'm not wearing make up' pictures on twitter like I give a rats ass. I like that she works really hard, has created a fashion brand and is clearly very savvy. Good on her.

scentednappyhag · 27/06/2012 17:10

I've always thought she comes across as very normal, nobody grins all day long!
I like 'er.

Mrsjay · 27/06/2012 17:10

her birthday treat was a fruit platter fgs woman have a bit of cake Grin

PandaWatch · 27/06/2012 17:11

I just think it's a bit mean to call someone you don't know cold and fake on the basis that they don't smile much in photos. Although I'm sure her squillions will help her get over it!

yellowraincoat · 27/06/2012 17:11

God, so what? She likes fruit, oh my God, someone arrest her for not eating chocolate. Everyone knows that all women everywhere must eat chocolate all the time.

GnocchiNineDoors · 27/06/2012 17:11

I like her. I like the fact that she has worked relentlessly to carve a business in the fashion industry.

She appears to be family oriented along with her dh and her kids seem level headed.

I do think she looks foolish being all serious all the time but if I were in front of the camera 24/7 id probably invent a sort of 'show personality' so that I could still feel like me once the cameras arent there.

However, I really feel that she is actually ashamed of her Spice Girls past which is such a shame as she quiye honestly wouldnt have the life she does now without SG.

wigglesrock · 27/06/2012 17:11

I like her too, couldn't give a shiney shite if she never smiled in a photo, neither do I.

Mrsjay · 27/06/2012 17:12

sneaking off the thread dont want the VB fans to lynch me

PandaWatch · 27/06/2012 17:13

CherryBlossom27 · 27/06/2012 17:16

I watched a clip of them all on the news last night and she did look a bit silly pouting and looking deadly serious whilst the other spice girls were smiling and chatty.

I think she should try and relax a bit in all senses, dress down a bit, smile a bit and eat something.
