MSM hates Posh Spice—but American public doesn’t

The way the mainstream media in the US (The New York Times) and New Zealand (TV One) tell it, Victoria Beckham’s arrival in the US was a flop, with people hating her show due to her overexposure.
Thank God we have blogs. At least two Americans here on Vox thought the show was great and thought highly of Mrs Beckham—one even saying that she expected to dislike the show and wasn’t even planning on watching, but for it being on at her gym.
Sorry, MSM—I don’t know about Becks, but I think Posh is conquering America. Sure, two people on Vox do not represent twenty million. But that’s two regular people to whom she is marketing versus a handful of opinionated journalists to whom she is not marketing. This is her year.

I think that the people who are ripping her show a new one are taking the whole show way too seriously. She's a CELEBRITY ya'll. Yes she thinks she's fabulous, yes she is best friends with her hairstylist and makeup artist. She buys $10 million dollar houses and $35,000 watches. It's what she does.

I thought she was great. Great sense of humour and all. I wish there was more episodes. I think they'll do great over here. Not quite as awesome has people are predicting, but I don't think they'll tank either.

The other thing to remember was that Victoria was taking the mick. Even if she doesn’t think she’s fabulous, from a humorous point of view, it was funny for her to act as though she is. Even though I do not watch reality TV, perhaps with the exception of the first season of That’ll Teach ’Em, the clips I have seen of Posh’s show are hilarious!
