Get Victoria Beckham to number 1

162 replies

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

I think it's funny. I'm not sure Vicky will be laughing though - although maybe she might raise a wry smile at the weirdness of getting to no.1 on the back of her son's very public tantrum.

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"

I remember it well! It was from her solo album and was in the charts at the time!

No, I'm just not thick. Your link doesn't prove anything other than lots of people fell for it.

Ah, right. So all the people who have streamed this today are thick but you're not. OK then.

soupyspoon · 22/01/2026 16:31

If she has any sense she will join in with the humour, not take her self or it too seriously

Its like when people used to try to embarrass Kylie when she got more famous and more 'stylish/hip' but actually she started to own it, I should be so Lucky and the duet with Jason. Cheesy pop or cheesy attempts at soul/R+B, its just easy come, easy go pop music.

Laughing Gnome anyone?

If they think they've streamed it in support of her, yeah 🤷‍♀️.

Makemydaypunk · 22/01/2026 16:34

I think posters are desperate that this is to humiliate Victoria and don’t like the fact that she is getting a lot of public support and celebrity support, yes getting to number one on Spotify, how will she cope with the shame!

Yep it’s just the style from the era, it’s not as if any of it has been scrubbed from the internet. Victoria will embrace it I expect, she laughs at herself in the matching leather outfits with David.

lifesdarkmoth · 22/01/2026 16:39

How is it humiliating her to buy a song she produced and put in the charts herself and was, by all accounts, quite proud of.???

Its clearly done as an affectionate, quirky weird British sign of support with a good dash of humour. She's our girl after all!

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...

Maybe Marc Anthony would be good?

Posters on this site always appaer to be very divorced from real life and real life opinions. Most people see her as being fairly wronged here.

Now at number 1. I love the British sense of humour

you mean abusing people and mocking them right.

But, why ? 🤔

Did anyone get Mel c straight after? The nostalgia!!!

Awww Mel.C ❤️. The only singing Spice Girl.

If she's sensible she'll donate the royalties to the Battersea Dogs Home for a further but if British defiance

I’ve seen the complete opposite.

Shes embarrassed about the song and the Beckham’s are trying to keep out of the public eye right now.

They are being very careful about what they do and don’t do which is why people are trying to force their hand to resound.

The people trying to get her to number 1 are taking the piss and trying to humiliate her.

In what world would she want to be number 1 right now?

Total opposite on my feed everyone doing it for support.

and her voice wasn't great

Chattygirl123 · 22/01/2026 17:10

Dreadful song and video is worse!!

Tableforjoan · 22/01/2026 17:11

Probably from all the TikTok’s taking the piss with her song and the dance together as my fyp has been full of taking the piss with her own music.

But you can spin it either way.

UnhappyHobbit · 21/01/2026 20:51

Why that one!? The one with Dane Bowers was so much better…

I think it's more about the name of the song.🤣🤣🤣

Now, now. Don't be bitter Mrs, sorry Lady B!

Cruz used the song on one of his Instagram stories this morning. By your logic does that mean he's abusing her too? Or mocking her? Seems like he gets the joke to me.

I think it's hilarious. Love that people are showing her support

Maia77 · 22/01/2026 17:28

No, thanks.
