Report says Anna Wintour made Posh do it

Word emerged in the media a few days ago that Victoria Beckham had wanted to ditch her WAG image for good and had consequently decided to have her silicone implants removed and replaced with smaller ones. One of the reasons she chose to do so was also because this was the only conceivable way in which she could land the cover of the fashion bible Vogue, as the Daily Mail informs.

Apparently, the always eager for attention fashionista had been courting Anna Wintour from the magazine for many months in the hope that she would be featured on the cover of one of the upcoming editions of the prestigious mag. There was only one catch, though, insiders reveal, namely that Wintour would not have Victoria with her current implants because they made her ridiculous. Therefore, she decided to have the third surgery to remove them.

“Anna said she would consider putting Victoria on the cover, but told her to lose those ridiculous implants before it happened.” a reportedly well-informed insider says for the British tab. It is an already well-known fact that, when it comes to most things pertaining to fashion and especially to what runs in Vogue, Anna Wintour has the final say. In this context, it would make sense had she really asked Victoria to downsize. Understandably, Posh has not yet made any comment on the reported surgery.

Victoria Beckham, though hailed by many as a true fashionista and fashion icon (now, a promising designer as well), is yet to break onto the US market, which is why she might want to be featured in Vogue because that would bring her considerable exposure. However, whether she would be willing to undergo surgery to attain her goal is debatable at least, several US publications point out.

As we also informed you a couple of days ago, Victoria is believed to have had a third surgical intervention on her chest, to bring her cup size from a 34DD to a more “manageable” B. She is said to be recuperating in France with husband David and their three sons, which would also explain why she has not made so many public appearances lately.
