Victoria Beckham

A newspaper I read recently quoted Victoria Beckham (31), wife of England's biggest soccer (sorry, football) star and former Spice Girl, saying she never read a book in her life.

Why do people deify such degenerates?!?!

I know it's because it's sells, but it drives me crazy!!

Does it really surprise you that much? She was a friggen Spice Girl.
A bit, yeah. Not one book in over 30 years?! I just hate it when people deify these imbeciles. I know why it happens, but I still hate it.

Join the club, both her and her husband have the combined IQ of a carrot.

That has to be a lie. How do you get through school without reading a single book. If you don't read, you can't read the words that you have to memorize in a song or a script (Spice world).....

books are the first way people learn how to read now. I just watched Paparaazi and this could have been like that movie, an outburst at an idiot reporter that was trying to make a story happen.

Well, obviously she has read educational material, but do agree that reading a novel and reading "My First English Book" aren't on the same level. I'm guessing she was referring to the former.

Actually, she was talking about other issues, like wanting to have children, who she said she fantasizes about shopping with and dressing them up (but certainly not reading them stories). It seems more likely to me that she was being ditzy and absent-minded.

There is a difference between a primer and a novel, but if I could only go by what you had in the post.

If the topic was kids, maybe she meant she has never read a book on having babie or mothering kids.

It isn't the smartest comment in the world but in context it might not be as bad as it looks.

I used to make comments like this about vegetables and rocks, but they got together and informed me they did not like the comparisons being made. ;)
