What a Surprise: Victoria Beckham Has to Fatten Up!

Well, if there's any consolation, I'm sure they had to threaten her into doing it

I think this is an outrageous decision, but in the end, if you're in the whole entertainment business you have to do what it takes - more exactly, what your bosses tell you to do. If your name is Victoria Beckham and if your bosses tell you to start piling on the pounds, you may not be very pleased with the whole "get fat" approach, but there's not much you can do. I was kidding when I called it outrageous, but I am not kidding about the rest of it: pouty Posh has been told she needs to find a way to increase her food intake if she wants to keep up with the dance routines she will have to perform when she goes on tour with the rest of the Spicers in December.

The funny part about this is that Victoria probably thought the whole thing over and still found a way around it. She will indeed increase the amount of food she's eating, but only after embarking on a five days so-called "cleansing diet" which will involve her drinking nothing but hot water and eating only fruit and vegetables. So don't be surprised if in the end we will have an even thinner Posh on our hands.

Victoria, who is 33, is said to maintain her ultra-slim figure and 23 inch waist by eating steamed fish and soybeans - but this will apparently have to change. "First Victoria is going on a week-long cleanse where she will only be able to drink hot lemon water and eat organic fruit and vegetables to detox her system" says a source close to the infamously thin Spice Girl. Detox it from what, I ask you - not eating? "She will have to keep this up for five days even though she will be training. Her new diet is based on eating small bowls of brown rice with steamed vegetables. She will also be eating beetroot at every mealtime because it's a good source of fiber and iron and low in calories". Yes, that definitely sounds tasty...

As a further attempt to make Victoria look like she's actually human and not a plastic alien robot, her diet will also involve eating handfuls of nuts and seeds. "She is terrified of putting on a single pound and has had to be talked into increasing her food intake" adds the same source. "It would be very embarrassing for her if she collapses or gets ill because she's too weak". Yes, well, that would be something - but it would also probably teach all the size zeros out there a valuable lesson. Yes, that will be the day.
