AIBU To think Victoria Beckham is a right mardy, stroppy looking mare. Anybody see the way she was looking out the corner of her eye at the crowds. Not a hint of a smile.

Apparently Becks had a five year affair with Alexa Chung, amongst others. VB no smiler but maybe the fake happy life is taking its toil :(

Lilacwine1 · 19/05/2018 17:14

Poor Victoria doesn't like the attention??? Well, she's in the wrong fecking profession. She's made enough money over the years to become a chuffin recluse.

I agree. The ‘aloof’ look can be quite sexy when you’re 25, but when you’re in your 40’s you just look miserable.
Maybe she’s had so much Botox she can’t smile anymore? Or maybe she is genuinely unhappy, in which case I feel sorry for her.
Money & fame doesn’t equal happy.

Sparklesocks · 19/05/2018 17:20

Ouch, this feels really mean spirited.

DialsMavis · 19/05/2018 17:20

I am not rich, famous, cool or influential and I know 2 people he has tried it on with... poor Victoria, it is a shame they feel like they need to stay together

Bitter much?!
I wouldn't swap with her. Not for all that money.
What profession exactly are you referring to? Singing, designing or being the wife of a footballer?
Doesn't give us all the right to bitch about her face does it? Or is it only poor people who are undeserving of criticism?

traciebanbanjo · 19/05/2018 17:26

I feel sorry for her. He's a cheating POS.

MissDuke · 19/05/2018 17:28

What a ridiculous title and op.

AsdaPooShaker · 19/05/2018 17:28

I just think it’s a bit odd.

I think she’s got a beautiful smile and if she hates her teeth so much she could certainly afford to change them.

From Clips I’ve seen in documentaries she’s got a wicked dry sense of humour so might not be much of a lol’er but it must take actual effort to not smile at a wedding. You’d think she’d forget herself at least some of the time. The fact she doesn’t - or can’t - is quite sad.

Alicatz66 · 19/05/2018 17:30

Leave her alone !! She could've been having a terrible day .. she's just got a natural resting bitch face ... not everyone goes around beaming like a loon !! Grin

Whattheactualfuckmate · 19/05/2018 17:32

I think she looked incredibly self conscious and when a man started speaking to her she was glad of the interaction.

I think she was and expects to get over shadowed by her husband at events like this. David barely glanced at her.

biscuitraider · 19/05/2018 17:33

jaques you've took that line out of context, "damn right we'll comment" is because she's very fortunate, compared to those who struggle through life but still manage to be cheery. Ffs the woman was at a wedding.

To spell it out to you, VB is a very successful career woman, sucessful husband, 4 healthy kids and a bank balance big enough to never ever go without. Of course people will comment about her misery.

But that comment has "opened your eyes" and you find it bizarre? most people think the same. The only bizarre thing is that you don't get that. Confused

Whisky2014 · 19/05/2018 17:34

But she was gping to walk straight past the usher folk outside. David took the time to shake their hand and say hello so she followed suit but muttered a very fast hello and kept walking.

Exactly the type of cheap misogyny that gives people the assumption they have the right to “cheer up love”.

Tiresome

biscuitraider · 19/05/2018 17:36

not everyone goes around beaming like a loon
I didn't see anyone else "beaming like a loon" why would anyone?
just, you know happy to be there attending a wedding.

GreatDuckCookery6211 · 19/05/2018 17:37

Whattheactualfuckmate I think you're right. VB has always been in the background and I think finds it hard to speak up for herself in a crowd, I remember her in the Spice Girls when they were being interviewed on GMTV and Geri and Mel B were constantly butting in and taking over the conversation not letting anyone talk, VB sat there looking nervous stroking her hair. Sad to watch.

I think she's just very self conscious and let's face it has had millions of articles written about her "miserable face" even if she wanted to crack a smile I doubt she would now because of the unwanted attention it would bring!

AntiqueSinger · 19/05/2018 17:43

Oh please don't say there are cheating rumours! I don't like them, but I really believed they were rock solid. Poor VB then, no wonder she looks miserable if what is being hinted is in any way true.Sad

biscuitraider · 19/05/2018 17:44

jaques it's nothing at all like remarks such as "cheer up love", we are commenting on the noticeable miserable face on VB every single time we see her, the whole thread is about that, but was particularly noticeable today at a wedding ffs. Keep your "cheap misogyny" remarks to yourself, it's pathetic and inappropriate to what we're talking about.

JacquesHammer · 19/05/2018 17:45

@biscuitrader so, just to clarify, you want to dictate what other people respond to your posts on a public forum?

Good luck with that.

GreatDuckCookery6211 · 19/05/2018 17:48

Are you joking Antique ConfusedGrin

ALongHardWinter · 19/05/2018 17:48

I didn't actually see her. I suppose she had her usual enormous sunglasses on?

GreatDuckCookery6211 · 19/05/2018 17:49

No I didn't see her sunglasses, she looked very classy in a tight fitting navy ensemble.

taratill · 19/05/2018 17:53

I think the 'look' is deliberate and part of her fashion brand.

I also think it is pretty rude to look as though you don't want to be at a wedding.

Annonymiss123 · 19/05/2018 17:54

I also noticed that there was no interaction between her and David . They seemed distant and i wondered too if they had had a row

I thought the same about James Codon and his wife.

biscuitraider · 19/05/2018 17:57

jaques no isn't that what you've just done, but the point is you took the time to copy and paste my post just to say it had "opened your eyes", when in fact my post was similar but in different words to many others. Perhaps you don't like straight talk, but my post was very reasonable, and is what many others think.
