Victoria Beckham: Coming to America

[anitram]

Has anyone seen this on NBC tonight?

It's so sinfully delicious! The Beverly Hills Socialites were solid gold.

I came to this thread thinking it was about one of the greatest movies of all time. Then I realized I overlooked the part before the :

 

[ladywithspinninghead]

I saw it, I was pleasantly surprised...I mean, I shouldn't have been - she likes to portray herself as a bitch to the media but that myth was dispelled when she made an appearance with her husband on Ali G a few years ago. Gotta love the Brits and their humour!

 

[Utoo]

was Becks in it at all, or just Posh?

 

[anitram]

He was in it for a little bit in the beginning and at the end.

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

LOVED IT! I did not think I would enjoy it but I appreciated her humor and those Beverly Hills plastic women were well interesting.

 

[corianderstem]

I don't think I'd ever actually heard the woman speak until this show. I find her kind of endearing after watching this. I will never call her a robot with grapefruits for boobs again.

Oh, and also - I can't wait for Perez Hilton's 15 minutes to be up, so he can go far, far away.

I saw this too thanks to Mr. Brown turning it on there otherwise I would have forgot it was on.
I think I am endeared to Posh/Victoria too now although she seems to be very British, I liked her sense of humor too.
Those rich L.A. ladies were and funny.

 

[beegee]

LOVED. IT.

 

[Sicy]

Perez

I really hate her haircut though.

I think she's much cuter with long hair.

 

[Thora]

I totally loved it!

The assistant cracked me up when she asked if she would ever be personally assisting David. The looks Victoria gave her when she was trying to say she thought he was okay looking were hilarious.

 

[cobl04]

I don't get it... is she a bitch or not??

 

[beegee]

What exactly don't you get, COBL?

Gotta love the Brits and their humour!

[Utoo]

What time is it on? Before "Age of Love?" (which I'm a closet fan of.... )

 

[Sicy]

Haha, yeah.

 

[Sicy]

What I dont get is, hasnt she spent plenty of time in the U.S. when she was touring with the Spice girls??
Why does she act like its all so foreign to her?

@ robot with grapefruits for boobs

She's kinda scary looking imo

 

[Utoo]

Haha, yeah.

great, now my mondays are shot

 

[Thora]

Wasn't it just a one-off? I remember hearing that there were going to be more episodes, but they ended up paring it down into just one. I have no idea, but that was my assumption based on what happened in the show last night.

 

[dsmith2904]

I think it is just a one-off, though I'd bet Bravo will most likely reair it as some point. She came off so well, really funny and sweet and genuine.

 

[Sicy]

Hmm.. according to TV Guide.com its not on next week.

I thought it was going to be a series

 

[cstar]

I watched it, and came away liking her an itsy bitsy more than I used to.... But besides from her (deservedly) famous and hot husband what does she have to offer other than attitude and being semi-goodlooking? She does look like an alien imo... funny that she called Perez on that. And she should grow out her hair. I did like her Brit sense of humor, though.

What I found interesting was all the "staged" things they put her through -- the BH ladies luncheon, the earthquake machine, the first pitch. I'm sure the "assistant" was some sort of actress or given things to ask her, like about her husband. Obviously a sore point!

But really, who cares they are now in America? I don't, other getting to see Beckham on tv a bit more often.

 

[corianderstem]

It was initially going to be a reality show, but for whatever reasons, they just made it into a one-off show.

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

I thought this was going to be a series too.. hmm.. wonder why the change.. maybe the appeal wasn't enough to warrant a series or the fact that there are TOO MANY of these shows on the air now that it may not draw enough of an audience consistently.. who friggin knows..

 

[deep]

I thought this was going to be a series too.. hmm.. wonder why the change.. .

too normal?

she didn't throw-up

or urinate in public?

 

[drdre12]

I actually really liked it. I love that she just can't help being glamorus. I thought is was funny how she always had to be wearing heals all the time. She came off as sweet and funny. Excited for Becks to be here.

 

[dsmith2904]

Everything I read said it was supposed to be six episodes but Victoria decided to go return to Spain with her family so that's why it was cut short.

 

[starsgoblue]

I really liked it! That's crap they only made it a oneoff

 

[mandy1973]

It was shown here the other night too - and i agree with you all - she came across really sweet and funny.

I too saw the ali g interview a few years back - it totally cracked me up.

Its here if you want to go have a giggle

And, seriously, how HOT did David look in that photo shoot at the start?

Cancelled due to poor ratings.
