Not very good news for Victoria Beckham. In fact, I was wondering whether she got any good news ever since she came to the States... and I'm afraid that, except for some invitations to parties and fashion shows, the good news have kept itself stubbornly at bay. After their his-and-her fragrance called Intimately Beckham Night registered a noticeable failure, Victoria and David have just been dubbed "the world's most over-rated celebrity couple" by New York pop culture bible Radar.
And while it's perfectly true that the pretty but delicate footballer and his plastic-boobed former Spice Girl wife turned doing nothing and still being famous for it into an art, this last blow definitely pissed off Victoria big time. I mean, I assume she was pissed off for two reasons - first, at least David is doing something to earn (some of) his fame while her agenda does not include much except shopping and showing off her fake tan, and second, she suddenly decided to find herself a new occupation and make herself more visible. Just for spite.
The on again/off again Spice Girl is joining the Pussycat Dolls. Not regularly, thank goodness - but she will reportedly make guest appearances with the pop group at a series of shows. And the Nicole & Co. are said to simply love Posh. "They've been blown away by Victoria since she arrived in LA" says a source. "They love her style and think she has the perfect figure for the group. They are all huge Spice Girl fans and can't wait to have her on stage with them".
That all sounds fabulous and all, but I just have to ask - what exactly about Victoria has blown the Pussycat Dolls girls away? Was it the fake boobs, the fake tan, the plastic-looking hair, the ever-present oversize sunglasses or the talent of not doing anything in particular and making that look glamorous? In that respect, even Paris Hilton looks more natural. Now there's an idea. Why don't the Pussycat Dolls bring those two together on stage? They could make a nice team - totally hot, totally major, it could work. I only hope they don't start singing. Wait - remind me - do the Pussycat Dolls sing as well? They do, don't they? Heaven protect us all - run off and get a pair of earplugs while you still can.
