Who Do You Think You Are?

Note: “Who Do You Think You Are?” is an ongoing series wherein I will examine people who are annoying, talentless or overrated. Who decides the people? I do. Thank you.

Who Do David and Posh Spice Beckham Think They Are? So, baseball is waiting for an obvious steroid user to break their most hallowed record, the NFL is mired in an illegal dog fighting scandal involving Michael Vick, arguably their most notable player and the NBA is dealing with a referee allegedly betting on games whilst possibly making bad calls to effect their outcome. At least we got David Beckham, right?

Wrong.

Ugh, I am already sick of David Beckham and I’ve grown even sicker of his wife, Posh Spice Beckham. This past Sunday, the Beckham’s were thrown a "Welcome to LA" bash by the Tom Cruises and the Will Smiths. Tom Cruise even flew in from Germany to ensure that he’d make it to the shindig. Could any of these people be more annoying?

Alright, I know, David Beckham is a great soccer player. For that I give him all the credit in the world. I’ve never seen him play. Not once. I just don’t get it. I’m American and therefore ignorant to all things soccer related. I’m not putting it down, it just doesn’t interest me. I prefer my sports leagues corrupt and oh yeah, entertaining. So there’s that.

Then there’s Posh Spice, a has-been former pop “star” who is still referred to as Posh Spice. She seems to have been trying to get people to call her Victoria, but it ain’t happening, probably never will. Especially since the recent announcement that the Spice Girls were reuniting in what may be the most irrelevant celebrity news story since John Mayer did whatever he does that could possibly get him on the news.

Seriously is anybody going to see a reunited Spice Girls? Anyone who even remembers them does so with a “oh my god I can’t believe I ever liked that song” type of shame. I’d imagine they’re irrelevant in today’s youth market what with pop stars galore who, love them or hate them, still do it better than the Spice Girls ever did. Say what you want about Avril Lavigne, but the Spice Girls songs are so pedestrian that they make her look like Madonna. Oh, and by the way Spice Girls, you’re like 40.

Also, I don’t trust anybody who gets that skinny after having three kids. Not because I think she has an eating disorder or anything, but because it means she has a whole lot of time to work out. Shouldn’t you be taking care of her kids? I thought so.

There’s also the matter of her television show, Victoria Beckham: Coming to America, which was originally supposed to be a six episode series, but was so bad that it was condensed into a one hour special that no one watched. It was beaten in the ratings by a repeat of Wife Swap. That’s funny. I suspect that it was so poorly viewed because no one knew who it was. If it was called Posh Spice: Coming to America more people would have… actually no they wouldn’t, it doesn't change the fact that she’s stupid.

For the most part this is a piece about how Victoria Beckham needs to stop it. I don’t necessarily hate David Beckham, I don’t like him that’s for sure, but I don’t hate him. He did marry Posh Spice, though and he allowed his kids to be named Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz.

For these reasons I say, David and Posh Spice Beckham... who do you think you are?
