Smile though your heart is aching. Smile even though its breaking…..Remember that old song……
When all around smile, Posh still pouts!
Well, after reading all the articles on the annual Costume Institute Ball in Manhattan, affectionately known as the “Oscars of the East”, it became apparent that, Victoria Beckham, one of the most photographed women in the world, married to one of the hunkiest sportsmen in the world, David Beckham, with one of the biggest bank accounts in the world, with three healthy happy children and living in one of her many homes around the world, positioned in the up market area of Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, (stop for breath here) never smiles!
Even stood with two of Hollywood’s biggest celebrities, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes and out on the town with David, no smile was about to make an escape from her pouty lips!
Trawling through Google images, magazines, on-line newspapers and videos, it appears that probably only one in every twenty shots shows the ex Spice Girl breaking away from that unattractive pout and vaguely smiling at the cameras.
Then digging a little deeper and finally discovering a photograph of Posh Spice giving it her best, the penny dropped.
She looks bl****y awful when she smiles, infact, she is reminiscent of the cavemen on the Geico advert. So go ahead Posh, keep that smile well under wraps, for everyone’s sake!

It seems just like yesterday that Victoria and David Beckham made their regal entrance to the world of L.A. glitz and glamour with high hopes of conquering the Hollywood celebrity scene but already the penny has dropped with Posh Spice that she’s not cut out for life in the American spotlight.
With her haughty stance, Victoria has gained little respect or adoration from other A-Listers among the Beverly Hills set and for her, being in the spotlight has meant nothing but ridicule.
Apart from an extremely brief appearance on Ugly Betty, Victoria Beckham has struggled to make her presence felt and American’s in general have very little interest in a woman who clearly has no talent and has turned out to be little more than a pouting clothes horse.
Being a big fish in a small pool, which Posh was in the UK certainly hasn’t translated too well in her move across the Atlantic.
Even after Posh’s attempts at a reality show about her less than interesting life, modeling, judging fashion on the cat walk at New York’s fashion week, making friends with stars such as Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise, having girl’s nights out with Eva Longoria and even a world tour with her ex band mates, The Spice Girls, none of this has brought her the ‘celebrity’ she sought and desired.
But now, after commenting recently on the couple’s future, Posh has indicated that her thoughts are clearly turning to England’s green and pleasant land as she said, “If we lived in England full-time, which at some point I’m sure we will, we would have to have a house in London.”
The only problem facing Mrs Beckham is the remaining 4 years left on husband David’s contract with the L.A. Galaxy football team.
So for now America must tolerate her over glossed-pouting mouth and England can breath a sigh of relief!

The Spice Girls’s Soufflé Just Wont Rise Twice!
Wasn’t it Johnny Mathis and Deniece Williams who sang, ‘Guess its over, time to call it a day…..?’ Well that’s the advice The Spice Girls should take as they toddle off into the sunset and before they ever consider mounting another reunion tour for which there is no demand!
It’s a bit like trying to rekindle a ‘dead in the water’ relationship, the soufflé just wont rise twice!
But reunions seem the be the fashion lately, we have Take That with Gary Barlow and Mark Owen reuniting and, to their credit, pulling it off with great success and an album packed with new material. The Eagles got it back together in 2007 with their first new album since the 1980’s that is receiving plenty of air time and enjoying success. And then there’s The Spice Girls, with nothing but a sad old 2008 calendar and an album full of tracks that should never have been released nine years ago, never mind now, when the world has moved on. This certainly was one reunion too many!
With no demand for them to reunite the reason for their decision still remains a myth to most of us. Some gave them the benefit of the doubt, some told the truth and said they could never be the same. They were right. The aging 1990’s starlets were worse.
The reason for Victoria Beckham putting herself back out there cant possibly be anything to do with money, she has more money than God! But one would have thought by now that she must have reconciled herself to the fact that her music career was over long before it even began! Did the ‘stick thin wanna be’ not have enough on her plate with her attempts to establish some kind of career in Hollywood?
The other three have produced between them four kids and not a father or husband in site so a few million in the chequing account might help them through the next few years along with cheesy TV commercials and reality show appearances.
That’s real Girl Power!
Maybe they would have improved the concept of The Spice Girl reunion if they’d left their totally inappropriate names from the past, in the past.
Take Baby Spice! She is about as close to her baby weight as Rosie ODonnell is to winning the next Miss World pageant!
Posh Spice has demonstrated since the mid 1990’s that she is as Posh as Tupperware bowl at a Buckingham Palace garden party.
Scary Spice, well she has exceeded her past scariness with ever expanding hips and mouth!
Ginger Spice! Well what can be said about a woman who has attempted everything from a solo career, a goodwill ambassador for the UNFPA to Playboy cover girl, but with no success or longevity in anything she undertakes.
Melanie Chisholm, known as Mel C and Sporty Spice, is the only remaining Spice Girl with anything resembling a musical career and now she has probably completely jeopardized it and done more damage than good for her performing future. Her sporty days were definitely over on this tour as she shuffled around the stage looking distinctly disinterested in the proceedings and wishing she could just get home and get a grip on her rapidly disappearing career.
Hiding the most probable reason for the premature and abrupt end to their world tour as poor ticket sales, the flagging quartet have sited the reason as their need to return to their families who they were missing, (but in most photos beamed across the Internet they had their families firmly in tow).
Yep, it’s a given, they have no more style, talent, appeal or chance of making it in the world of music now than they did back in the 1990’s.
In the end they are just a posse of has beens with kids trying to look sexy and sassy but actually making the six guys from The Full Monty appear far more professional, attractive and talented.
