It's nothing to do with her fame, money, husband or the fact that she's decided she's a fashion guru. It's because she's recently claimed - again - that she's always been a naturally skinny girl! She's got a problem and she's not helping any one of those young girls who are out there worshiping her (and lining her pockets by buying her book) by lying to them and possibly herself. Even though you've all seen many, many pictures I'd like to back my claim with evidence:
Circa 1996ish: Even I think she looks sexy! Roundy hips and belly like a real girl:

Circa 2003ish: Absolutely dreadful:

Is this woman to be trusted to be a style icon and role model for anybody's young daughters when she's so obviously lying?

She aint always been skinny,look at the documentry they did when they first got together and were all living together in that house,she was chubby,spotty.She was checking all the food to see what E numbers was in it,and she would only eat salad and fruit to lose her weight,
Being a style guru is her last throw at the dice to be reconised as someone,cos since the spice girls finished what has she done thats made her big(other than being mrs beckham)
Knowing kids will look up to david (fashion wise) she jumped on the band-waggon and people are lining her pockets

Well she definately isnt a role model. I believe she is either in absolute denial or she has too much air in that brain of hers from lack of nutrition.
I do believe people put too much pressure on celebrities to set the right example by the public though. Regretfully they are human and they do make mistakes....but what really bothers me is the fact that even though she does look anorexic - nothing has been done about it since she had her first child. I at least would have thought that David or at least the media would have said or done something to show the public that this isnt acceptable....but they havent. Its only been glamourised.
Even though i do believe Vic is way too skinny - i ultimately blame the media for not putting her body image down. Nothing is worse than young kids looking up to her for advice. Especially as a young mother in today's society - who can beat Victoria? I couldnt believe she got the "Yummiest Mummy" label from the UK papers....now they (media) are the trash of the earth bboo.

We all know she has a problem but as long as she doesn't want to face it then there's nothing anyone else can say. I saw a recent pic of her where she had a bald spot. Hopefully she will get help. She looks so much better when she was in the spice girls. When you have an eating disorder you can't tell how horrible you look and as long as there are people behind her to stroke her ego she will never get help.

I don't know where you are getting your info from but I have heard completely the opposite - that top fashion designers don't want her anywhere near their designs, in fact one said designer refused to have something made in her size so she had to go and get a replica made instead. This is also a joke - her advice if you want to look taller is - wait for it - 'wear high heels' She is definitely not a style guru and her book isn't selling that well either - is it?

for some strange reason im just reading her book and she was always a chubby girl up untill the time when the spice girls got famous(if you wanna call it that) she is a bad role model for young girls espec when she only lives on strawberries and lettuce. not a good style icon at all - not much we can do about it she is popular with youngsters.

I agree totally. She is dangerously thin. It's fine to be like that, but being unhealthy and promoting yourself as beautiful is just not on. It seems stupid to say that you are naturally thin if you consume half a portion of salad and 2 cups of green tea a day.
Look at her these days:

It's just not on at all.
Actually - I just thought she does not make the news papers show her. The news papers and fasion industry promote this sort of thing. In fact they promote all this skeletor lifestyle. It's stupid and destructive.

I hate when people feel the need to go all skanky to look good then get fake boobs, then swear blind they are naturally thin and them boobs r real. LOL . i dont give a crap about my weight its about how i feel inside and not what people on the outside think. and a few role models on the tv should think about their freaky obsessions b4 they do them. infact the tv bosses should ban them for being so skanky, they make so many young girls ill for life with the dieting mo fo shiznit

I think its a shame really she looked so lovely in the spice girls but when your in the public eye the media constantly call you for being too fat or too thin.I say leave everyone alone and let them be whatever shape they are x

She's an idiot who is trying to appear happy weighing what, 6 stone?
I'm with you....too many celebrities are grossly underweight and it sets a terrible example for kids.

yes she's naturallyy thin and she has naturall boobs that just sprung up one day on their own so she claims. i think poor Victoria she does have a face you want to slap , but i think she is very insecure over David publicly humiliating her with all his affairs, used to like him but now when i look iat him i think smug git. she is terrified he will leave her so that's why i think she keeps herself so thin , to get the spotlight and attention she craves
