Posh Spice a.k.a. Victoria Beckham is Dunzo!

She was deemed a pointless collection of body parts. Enough said

Sorry, hon, I guess you're gonna have to try harder next time...

The she-half of the Beckham duo has tried to take America by storm, and it looks like she failed. I mean, don't get me wrong, there are plenty of people out there who like her, I suppose, but not the ones she was really interested in. And while just a few days ago I was telling you about how the his-and-hers fragrance the Beckams launched withered and tanked big time (meaning it can be purchased off eBay for under a dollar) it looks like more of Victoria's plans for fame in the States went down the drain.

The fact is, the Beckhams' move to the states was staked as THE event of the season. And perhaps in the wake of all the publicity they got, Victoria was hoping that her career - which in England too was lagging way behind David's - will kick off Hollywood style. Only it hasn't happened yet - which goes to prove there was a reason behind Posh and hubby David were voted number 1 in the Overrated Top 100 by the New York trend magazine, Radar.

The conclusion of the survey pretty much sums up Victoria's odyssey in the States: "He's an overpaid soccer star; she's a pointless collection of body parts". Ouch! That's gotta hurt. But as far as I can see, there's at least some truth in that. And it looks like Mrs. Beckham has finally realized this is true, as a source next to her reports Posh Spice is growing rather anxious with her stationary career.

The source says: "Things are not really going as she had planned. Victoria has a small cameo in Ugly Betty. She wanted a much bigger role in that - and indeed a lead role in any show at all". Well, maybe I'm just being mean and all, but could it be that the reason that never happened is that Victoria's got as much acting talent as a teaspoon? And it looks that Posh went to extreme measures to get her acting skills up - including enlisting the help of one of her friends, Tom Cruise's wife Katie Holmes.

"Katie Holmes had been helping her with scripts and perfecting her acting but even that has not helped the situation. Victoria had hoped to be picking and choosing presenting roles too. She had wanted perhaps to guest host on Larry King - in the way that Heather Mills did. But that has not worked out either". Well, maybe one good thing will come out of this and Victoria and David will go all Scientologic on us. Now that would be a hot topic - and I'm sure it would get them all the hot invites they want.

"She had been hoping that the documentary about the Beckhams moving to America would be made into a series, but it was cut right back too. Victoria had also set her sights on getting the cover of American Vogue but that too has proved elusive. Basically she pinned her hopes on offers of work coming flooding in but that just has not happened" the source reveals.

Well, yes, Hollywood will kick you in the nuts like that. Or rather, plastic boobies, since there was already some cruel reference to Victoria being a collection of body parts. The trouble is, not everybody is Britney Spears - and even Brit once looked like she knew how to sing and dance. So, suck it up, Posh - and hope the Spice Girls reunion tour will not be as big a flop as I expect it to be.
