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?

she will look back when she's an old person and probably regret looking so po faced

it's really not a good look is it? she cares way too much about what she looks like, it's a bit self obsessed which puts me off her

Viviennemary · 27/06/2012 17:18

I think she's horrible. Of course I don't know her. And that misery woe is me superior pout might just be her public facade, but it's all I've got to go on.

I think she seems anything but family orientated. Yes there are the cleverly orchestrated photos when they appear anywhere as a family, but they aren't very often. Nothing against her or her dh either. Didn't like Spice girls but I wasn't 8 at the time. I say good luck to them. The fashion is really basic design though, most good seamstress could knock one up, and only considered good because of her name

I think she has a lot less to regret than most germy.

She's not the most talented in the world, but she's gone far on it. She's obviously taken chances that a lot of people wouldn't have dared to.

Does Russell Crowe get stick for rarely smiling ? no . There are plenty of male celebrities that present a fairly scowling persona to the world and they get no flack at all for it.

Why should VB be expected to grin inanely at all times like a performing puppet ?

Good point, Nigel.

Grin
germyrabbit · 27/06/2012 17:25

grinnng sometimes would be something Wink

is looking happy and showing it a sign of a performing puppet Confused

yellowraincoat · 27/06/2012 17:27

People always accuse me of looking miserable.

I'm really not and it's really no-one's business. It's just how my face naturally lies.

You know in other countries (Germany, for example, or Russia) they think the Brits and the Yanks are total ninnies for going about doing a stupid smile all the time?

Mrsjay · 27/06/2012 17:29

it isnt the non smiley grinning like a look is un nerving its the pouting is there any need to pout

PandaWatch · 27/06/2012 17:33

Mmm...cake...

cocolepew · 27/06/2012 17:38

The only good thing about VB is she seems to be putting the kaboosh on the Spice Girls reuniting for the Olympics.

Apart from that I agree with everything bunny said.

ZebraLeg · 27/06/2012 17:41

The Spice girls have reunited and which one is everyone talking about? She seems pretty clever and PR savvy to me...

recall · 27/06/2012 17:45

I've just had a mooch on twitter and she seems really nice on there, I've decided I like her now

cocolepew · 27/06/2012 17:53

This is VB on twitter.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

ifeelloved · 27/06/2012 17:55

I quite like her. I think Gerri and mel b are far worse.

AnyoneForTennis · 27/06/2012 18:01

The official vb has the green tick. And posts pics of their clothes which she lays out for her dc..... And then they are photographed wearing them later on...

I think she normally gets her clothes spot on but it's June not winter . She would have looked much better with one of her short shift dresses and her legs out . She looked so much older than the others . Shame , I quite like her . She doesn't smile because she looks goofy when she smiles , she has had her teeth fixed but you can't change the shape of your face .

Gettheetoanunnery · 27/06/2012 18:56

I like her! I agree that she could do with chillaxing a bit in front of the paps.

I can't imagine David Beckham being with her if she was all pouty and stuff at home. I bet she's actually a nice person

mosschops30 · 27/06/2012 19:01

God yes Mel B is nasty

I like VB. i think her boys should play with mine Grin and then she can come for dinner with David, it would be lovely!

AnyoneForTennis · 27/06/2012 19:16

mosschops what would you have on the menu?

NeverKnowinglyUnderstood · 27/06/2012 19:22

you know what, I watched a couple of the videos of the reunion, and if you change the word stroppy for nervous it really could apply to her behaviour
