I heart Posh Spice

xoxo

Posh Spice should be renamed Stick Insect Spice, although I fear that Geri has usurped her to that title as of late.

Hannah S Club = your younger sister's highly attractive best mate who dates boys older than you.

These days, the most attractive Spice Girl is Emma. I am COMPLETELY SHOCKED by this, as I always considered her ultra-icky.

I think Emma's feet look quite supersexy too.

How do you mean, challenging? I quite like her in a "look at how crazy she is" kinda way. She seems one of those batshit pill-popping uber-rich wrinkly widows who want their maid to peel the grapes because there's no vitamines but too many calories in the skin. She's obviously so self-obsessed and self-centered that she doesn't realize anymore what's real and what's not. I'm assuming she thinks that she has to put up this show, because that's what people want (instead of what the media actually wants).

I saw the trailer and she looked such a Barbie.

Five million? Veronica Mars would have killed for those ratings (instead of solved a crime). hah.

five live had their man in la talking about her and the show last night. basically, yeah in Hollywood no-one gives a crap. There she is the wife of someone not especially interesting who is fairly good at a sport no-one understands or cares to.

ignorant and attention-seeking, the only person interested in her is her.

She's trying too hard in such a lovely, British sort of way. Kind of like how The Stones and the Yardbirds tried SOOO hard on those old blues records.

You live in America, now, dear. Find someone to exploit, preferrably of a darker skin tone, get a HUGELY expensive car, and don't get in my way during my morning commute.

vs

Some 4.9 million people tuned in

Onimo, she has split personality syndrome.

Get a hugely expensive car? hahahaha Have you SEEN what she drives in?
And of course she's already exploiting David.

Actually I think a Mini would even look large on/around her.

I heart posh spice's huge lips and forehead in a totally lascivious manner, devoid of any redeeming platonic element

the show was terrible. i only watched half, mind, but the scene where she goes to visit perez hilton guy and they wouldn't stop cutting to the 'wacky gay hairdresser' looking at him as though there was some kind of obvious love connection/jealousy over the dude's request for naked david photos was horrible.

onimo, 4.9 million is probably about an eighth of the potential viewership.

weird that the reuters article don't quote anyone west of st. louis

Looks like Los Angeles will actually be gaining TWO esteemed and notable Englishmen this month. Good for them!

LOL

Yes, but still 4.899999 million more than herself. It's still a lot of people.

oh my god i can't believe i missed this

5 million viewers on american broadcast tv is pathetic I think. that's spongebob squarepants reruns on cable territory, and this is the first broadcast. NBC'll can her in three weeks.

They should get posh to replace the cuban dude they just killed on CSI Miami

I still can't believe they killed that guy though

who the fuck are these 4.9million people. if i had time i would visit each of them individually with a list of 4.9million better things to do with one's time than watch this vapidly pointless human being on television.

and i think nbc already gave up on the show.

I thought it was a one off?

It was just a one-off; NBC executives regained some amount of sanity and realized that the only people who cared about it were regular watchers of E! Television.

i can't believe that station still exists.

i believe it was meant to be a six-parter originally but a combination of the producers realising what a waste of time the show was, and her coming back to the uk (sorta defeats the point filming her in britain) meant they didn't have enough to turn into a series. so cut it early.

don't ask me how i know this shit; i don't care about any of it, am just unemployed and an insatiable consumer of news media and sometimes shit like this gets through.

NBC's second-highest rated comedy is the Office, which averaged about 8.7 million viewers, and that's during the actual tv season.

NBC's Last Comic Standing averaged about 4.8 million viewers in the summer last season, and it's currently in it's fifth one.

It wasn't a major disaster for NBC or anything. Not great, but for them, that's still pretty good.

haha vivendi/nbc/universal is basically being kept alive by World of Warcraft I think

duuuuuude why put a spoiler in here!

It was just a one-off; NBC executives regained some amount of sanity and realized that the only people who cared about it were regular watchers of E! Television.

I watch E! from time to time. :-( Mind you, I have to do something else and for not too long or else I'd have a brainmelt.

(Well, I had a brainmelt when one female presenter said her fave band was Joy Division. WAH?)

E! Television exists b/c it is the only station that gets LA! Or, more correctly, HOLLYWOOD! The only side of LA that matters, rite?

I have news, and I have said this before - all the reality shows or sitcoms or dramas and most of the movies that are based in and around Southern California are all entirely correct, authentic, and real. With the possible exception of Mitch, Butchie, Shaun, John, Cissy, Kai and the gang in Imperial Beach.

The Real Housewives of Orange County? My buddy from law school's parents live in that neighborhood, and they reportedly left OUT a lot of the really embarassing stuff.

I love this town. It feels like I'm riding the bomb on the way down. Where the grass is green (if your gardener is good), and the girls are pretty (with assists from tanning shops, botox, plastic surgery, and eating disorders.)

i'm sad to say that i got obsessed with the real housewives of the oc.

And yes...Vicky B. is driving SUCH an LA car, its amazing. And I think that, to a large extent, her presence is the reason that Becks is making so much money out of this deal. He wasn't broke before, and that was largely due to his big game heroics with England and Man U., but this type of move requires couple-wattage star power, and they've got it.

For my part, I think she's fun, albeit reeking of effort at this point. She'll integrate herself into the LA landscape....at least it will be easy to spot her at Galaxy games.

She's trying too hard in such a lovely, British sort of way. Kind of like how The Stones and the Yardbirds tried SOOO hard on those old blues records.

haha, this was good!

Anyway, I liked the show, it was major.

That said, I was packing moving boxes while it was on so I didn't really watch it properly.

Mega xxxxxxxpost to Nathalie:

I mean that my perception of her could do with "challenging" in that I would think what you said, i.e. "She seems one of those batshit pill-popping uber-rich wrinkly widows who want their maid to peel the grapes because there's no vitamines but too many calories in the skin. She's obviously so self-obsessed and self-centered that she doesn't realize anymore what's real and what's not. I'm assuming she thinks that she has to put up this show, because that's what people want (instead of what the media actually wants). " but that's not actually necessarily the case.

Obviously it doesn't *need* to be challenged, but she doesn't come across like that at all, really, and is pretty much a PR disaster, which is kind of rotten when you're one of the most famous people in Britain. And I kind of go ridiculously batshit overboard on unimportant celebs (I would totally watch E! btw, if I could be arsed) so this kind of thing is interesting diversionary entertainment and I get some sort of inexplicable pleasure out of celeb-watching. Except that I didn't really watch the Victoria Beckham because I was too busy watching the next load of unimportant celebs-in-waiting on the other side. But I saw enough to give her credit for either being less vacuous than I thought or more media-savvy than I'd given her credit for. Either way, I think more of her now than I did last week.

Which, I guess, was the point of the programme. Shame I'm not American, really.

What I saw of this programme was pretty good, certainly on a par with Borat. She was surprisingly witty when looking at Lionel Richie's old house.

Hopefully this will come out on DVD with "Moving to Madrid" in removal van-shaped packaging.

I am looking forward to the Beckhma bit next week.

Who is Simon Fuller? Isn't he the nasty one on X Factor? Is he really Beckham's manager, or have I been dreaming again?

Nasty one on X-Factor = Simon Cowell. Simon Fuller was the manager of the Spice Girls. Beckham's manager, in a footballing sense, is Alexei Lalas, who is an American ex-footballer who used to look like the bloke from the Spin Doctors. That's someone American, who used to play football, not someone who used to play American football. And by bloke from the Spin Doctors, I mean those goons that sang Two Princes, not, like, Alistair Campbell or something.

Clear?

oh my god i can't believe i missed this

THEY ARE REPLAYING IT TOMORROW NIGHT AND YOU CAN WATCH IT ONLINE:
http://www.nbc.com/Victoria_Beckham/

Though the Perez Hilton bit was somewhat entertaining, Easy V herself is a bit of a bore so far. She keeps saying "major" the way Paris says "that's hot."

um i saw this picture of her thigh today? on one of those sites? her leg at large looked very bizarre and had some weird shape/cellulite action happening

i always thought she had like the body of steel

her boobs apparently aren't as big in person either, whatever. I dunno, I tried to watch this but she seems to be missing any particular quality that would have gotten this picked up, be it trainwreck/crazy, teh funny, etc.
It ended with her trying to play baseball with little kids and being shit at it or something.

She has that typical foot bump from wearing too many high heels.

I totally enjoyed watching the rerun last night. IS THAT SO WRONG? My favorite part though was seeing Perez Hilton.

thatS SO WEIRD that that was a fake. that shouldn't be allowed man. her real leg looks great

agggh again i did not see this show

the real/fake thing can't be right

Botha them legs is okay with me.

i love this show

bored gay men w/weird sense of humor

The Daily Mail is like the UK version of The Enquirer

Favourite bit of comments by far
