Get Victoria Beckham to number 1

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

British bloody-minded, piss taking at its’ finest. Never been more proud.

Fends · 22/01/2026 13:41

That is highly amusing. And yes, very British. Love it

GottaKeepItClassy · 22/01/2026 13:42

Well, I certainly didn’t have that on my card for 2026 😂

LowdermilkPark · 22/01/2026 13:43

Poor Victoria. Could her week get any worse? 😂

I don’t read it that way.

Seems more like ‘yes she’s embarrassing, too much wine and mum dancing, but she’s your mum Brooklyn, and she will love you when others leave you’

😂

There is a reason her music career stalled, because she can’t sing.

Who can even be arsed that some millionaires are arguing with some other millionaires.

Uhghg · 22/01/2026 13:56

That’s absolutely pathetic.

Why are people putting more money into millionaires pockets ‘for a laugh’.

Then you have people with actual talent who can’t get a look in purely because they don’t have money behind them or the ‘right look’.

Maybe people should just focus on their own lives instead of trying to join in with a family feud of people who have no idea they even exist.

Shinyandnew1 · 22/01/2026 14:00

Won't that just make her even richer?!

How bizarre.

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?

EscapeTheCastle · 22/01/2026 14:02

Wow. I'm very knowledgeable on pop music but I don't remember that one at all!

The video is all chrome and PVC low trousers like all videos of the era.
The video is very much like the Spice Girls "Holler"

ThatsPlentyIsa · 22/01/2026 14:03

Maybe if it gets to number one she’ll appear on The One Show to demonstrate The Dance?

What, with a stunt Brooklyn?

Blarn · 22/01/2026 14:05

I forgot I even remembered that song! Read the title of it and it popped back into my head, definitely not going to listen to it as I will be singing it for days!

ThatCyanCat · 22/01/2026 14:05

I must admit This Groove has always been a bit of a guilty pleasure. And I do think the video for Let Your Head Go is funny.

highspring · 22/01/2026 14:05

Hoping the money made is given to charity

It’s exactly this. It’s not pity. I think it’s great what the British can up with in a time of crisis 🤣

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.

ImSweetEnough · 22/01/2026 14:12

Good! I have just streamed it myself.

Always thought that VB comes over as lovely.

@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 😂.

Wonder if she'll rock the fake lip ring, clown red eyeshadow and bandana look again!!

All publicity is good publicity. Well, within reason!
She'll take it as evidence of what a bloody good singer she is. Plus, she's laughing all the way to the bank. She won't be embarrassed, I don't think.

If she were to perform it on the one show I wonder if she'd Wheel Dane Bowers back from the noughties or use someone cooler and more current. Stormzy perhaps? Or Ed Sheeran?*

*Disclaimer, I'm aware this would never happen but let's dream...

Spookyspaghetti · 22/01/2026 14:27

I prefer Out of Your Mind with Dane Bowers and True Steppers!

Nicecatneighbour · 22/01/2026 14:38

She's got a good sense of humour and will take it on the chin.

EmeraldShamrock000 · 22/01/2026 14:40

It was a shit song in the past and still is.
I think it is pathetic how social media whips up a frenzy over very unimportant issues. If this is in any way a PR stunt, they were successful.
This is the modern day public hanging, people drunk on excitement for entertainment.
