Get Victoria Beckham to number 1

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

Good! I have just streamed it myself.

Always thought that VB comes over as lovely.

The people wanting her to get to number 1 are doing it because they don’t like her and want to humiliate her.

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.

I would've thought that one was the obvious choice! Mind you it did actually do quite well, I remember the clubs liked it. So maybe that's not the aim!

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.

I think this is the more likely reason

Oh, really?

The people around me here are saying it's in support of her?

Lilaclane · 22/01/2026 15:04

How hilarious. I love the British sense of humour!

muggart · 22/01/2026 15:10

i’m also confused about whether this is being done to support or criticize her.

the message behind the song is essentially “im not at sweet as you think i am” which is basically what brooklyn was saying. choosing this song seems like a passive aggressive dig at her.

but the newspapers seem to think this is being done in support.

i don’t really get it!

LambriniBobInIsleworthISeesYa · 22/01/2026 15:13

I’ll get behind the True Steppers one going to number one because it’s a fucking banger (it’d give Dane a few extra quid now he’s doing those shifts in the Croydon South Argos too, bless his heart). But Not Such an Innocent Girl is a baaaaad tune. You’re Out of Your Mind to promote this, OP.

Ialwaysthoughtitwasadojo · 22/01/2026 15:13

I can't see where she's number 1? I looked at the UK chart just now and she's not on it, where are people seeing this?

I did listen to the song, it's abymysal isn't it, glad I missed it the first time around. My YouTube music is now on a spice girls run though, so that's a plus! Viva forever is a banger.

PineappleSunrise · 22/01/2026 15:14

I’m starting to wonder if the feud is just black ops PR. I’m usually pretty good at ignoring the Beckhams, but it feels like EVERYONE is talking about them and working their arses off to further boost their profiles.

Princesspollyyy · 22/01/2026 15:15

Ive been playing it all day on Spotify 😂 I think it’s funny that it’s gone to number 1

I think it's because it was her most successful solo single.

It's a supportive thing. There are various female celebs posting it on their stories whilst also running stories or podcasts about how much of an ungrateful brat BB is and how they stand with VB. Kathryn Ryan is one such celeb.

I streamed the song in support; I like her. Thrilled she'd got to No.1

And all the "just giving them more money" outrage from some - who cares? It's not cost me a penny. Better Posh and Becks than fecking Jeff Bezos, Trump, Musk or Zuckerberg.

I don’t think so. The majority that I’ve come across are doing it to annoy BB by supporting VB.
Why would people who dislike her want to line her pockets with money??
Any comments on YouTube are in support of her reaching number 1.

I thought This Groove was so tragically bad it was good - especially the talking bits! The video with her writhing on the bed was cringeworthy too - I can't find it on YouTube, must have been taken down - wonder why😂

PatchouliPrincess · 22/01/2026 15:30

Yes everyone lets all help this multi millionaire make even more money and get to number one because her son isn't talking to her.

The British public are so malleable.

Just listened to it. Had to turn off halfway through

donaldtrumponlyhasonedancemove · 22/01/2026 15:37

@VictoriaFeckham Quality! Thanks 😂

ColinOfficeTrolley · 22/01/2026 15:38

The multi millionaires who would advertise dog shit if it benefitted them? The multi millionaires where millions and millions is never enough? The multi millionaires who sold their kids lives to okay magazine? Nah, I won't be streaming.

yeriknow · 22/01/2026 15:39

What a load of utter shit.

Leave these millionaires to their domestic.

No need for anybody else to get involved (or line their pockets).

People need to get a grip and focus on their own lives.

I thought artists made bugger all from streaming? And she didn't even write the song.

And herein lies the problem.

Two camps of people doing the same thing for two completely different reasons, nobody knows which, and therefore it’s just all completely pointless.

Even if it wasn’t unclear what the purpose is….its still pointless.

VB doesn’t give a shit about any of the people doing this. She’s a millionaire and you’re just lining her pockets further.

Absolute nonsense.
