The doc was OK the last seen was so cringe and i wish it was cut!

I thought she looked great and i am here to water her plants when she is in need 😉

Ive only seen clips but from the parts i did see i felt she came across very well which doesnt always be the case when she does things.

I watched this, it feels like one big PR push for her fashion brand and I came away from it thinking "jeeez, they really are shallow"

It's even like their kids are part of the brand

Yeah they cant escape the shallowness of it all, I'm sorry... Plus, I don't buy the whole we dont have money to cover this when even when articles were coming out that the company was in the red, they were also having articles coming out how they themselves were getting richer and richer lol

Also, on another point: why can't she draw, or sketch the designs? I know she didn't have the training but... shouldn't she have the training at some point? LOL

The documentary does very little at showing what she actually does other than approve designs 🫠

yup, i left feeling she had less input that I initially thought. Now, I don't think she even designs any of her designs because we spent three parts learning nothing about her actual work. She just shows up like a regular 9 to 5 and says yes or no while her team pulls an all nighters just to make sure the clothes are ready for the runway.

I thought she came across rather well.

VICTORIA: "I just want to make you and the kids proud of me"

DAVID: "We'd be proud of you even if you made a cheese and Ham toastie"

VICTORIA: (pause) ".....Yes but let's be honest I couldn't make one of those"

DAVID: "I know"

Funnily enough, the Documentary might have accidentally shed some new light on Victoria and her reunions with the Spice Girls since 2000.

There's an ongoing discussion on forums at the moment about how she was trapped for cash for her business around 2018 - which is when she and Simon invoked the now infamous meeting between them all. Seemingly, fans are speculating that Victoria was wanting to gather some cash-ins with the group, mainly from licensing deals to make buck for her struggling label. But when the group instead decided to go on tour, she pulled out while still seeing her income growing from royalties and licensing deals anyway (as she is still co-director of the Spice Girls LTD company). Remember they posted that image as 'this is about celebrating Girl Power to a new generation' and brand deals poured in, the animated film started to be developed, and the tour was offered to them quite quickly afterwards.

At the same time, in the documentary she talks about 'shedding the wag image' she had when she moved to America and started to build her fashion brand with mentorship from Rolland Murray and Simon Fuller. She was still the 'blong bimbo WAG' back then, and she needed to shed that image, and make money to build her fashion brand at the same time. So her and Simon took it upon themselves to set up some new meetings and get the Spice Girls as a group together, so she could get that injection of cash, start making fashion deals and 'become posh', more sofisticated looking again - more palatable for the fashion industry than the WAG image. It was during this 'era' that she started to partner with fashion labels and make deals, such as those jeans she designed and launched during the tour, the modeling deal with Marc Jacobs, etc... Plus, it helped raise her profile in America again which is also what she wanted and what was lacking at the time.

It's interesting, in my opinion, these angles, and they make total sense to me. Her heart hasnt been in the Spice Girls for a long time, but she drove those reunions - at least initially - to pump cash and profile into her own fashion label, and perhaps we wouldnt have either without these meetings happening in the first place!

Yup, I read that too. Now I think that comment from Mel B still stings to this day (prowbsly why she still hasn’t followed her back on instagram) because Mel B saw right through her and called her out.

Isn't it interesting though that there are always conflicting schedules stopping most of them from attending each other's celebratory events (weddings, birthday parties, etc), but those conflicts suddenly disappear whenever it's Victoria's event?

Yeah that always bugs me too....

And trust whenever there is a reunion, Victoria always has to be the first to post the pictures to maximise her social media engagement. She uses the Spice Girls for promotion when it suits.

This is how I felt too. It's a shame because she is hilarious and yeah moments of that shone through, but all in all it was so superficial and quite fake looking.

Plus she negotiated a deal that her fashion brand would be included in the British Fashion section of the 2012 Olympics in exchange for her performing there with the girls... She is savvy alright, you can't take that away from her.

The jeans were before the reunion though weren't they? Thought they were during her Damon Dash era when she was trying to be Hip Hop?

She did the Damon Dash campaign before yes but then during the last leg of the Return tour she also started to do other advertisement and deals and I remember her launching some jeans collection then too, with another company...

Also, her documentary isn't a huge hit but it is a moderate success:

Posh Spice’s three-part series premiered on October 9, and episode one was watched by nearly 1.7M viewers in its first week on Netflix in the UK, per official BARB figures supplied by overnights.tv.

The original Beckham access series, simply titled Beckham, debuted with 3.8M viewers, according to comparable ratings figures.

Episode two in the Victoria series generated an audience of nearly 1.3M in its first seven days on Netflix, while the finale had 1M viewers at the time of writing. These figures will grow over time, and Netflix has its own viewing metrics that will determine whether it considers the series a success. The documentary has 5.6M views on Netflix globally, topping the streamer’s most-watched list in the UK. It also ranked third in Netflix’s Top 10 list in the U.S.

It was, however, unable to match Fred and Rose West: A British Horror Story, which premiered with 2.2M in May. Victoria Beckham has also fallen behind other Netflix access documentaries, such as At Home With The Furys, which debuted with 2.6M in 2023

This was great

Very open and honest interview, felt more open than the documentary tbh 😂

Arise, Lady Beckham!

I enjoyed Victoria's Call Her Daddy appearance, and I'm just about done with the doc series (I'll admit...that's taken me a while to finish).

If she's feeling creatively fulfilled by the fashion industry, that's the most important thing. But I'm not sure I can think of anyone who experienced as much success in music...who tries as hard to minimize those contributions.

For one, when she claims the Spice Girls were four years of her life...is she referring to the group formation up until Geri leaving? Or the years from Wannabe's release to Forever? Both her doc series and the Call Her Daddy interview make it sound like her music career was over by the time Brooklyn was born...but...technically, she would have recorded far more songs after that point than before.

The doc series just addresses her solo music career as "I didn't know what I was doing." But. Honestly, we can argue if she picked the right singles out of her material, but the campaigns were always fairly clever. This many years on, I wish she had the clarity to realize...underperforming by her standards had less to do with her than it did...being the fifth Spice-related album to be released in a year?

Her claims of not singing when the other girls were have stuck. I have heard co-workers state it matter-of-factly..."You know, they didn't even turn Victoria's microphone on." And then I have to stop myself from sounding like a total nut...wanting to explain "she did her share of lip syncing...but when the others were singing live, so was she. She's just lying about that for...some reason."

Oh I make myself sound like a total nut lol.

From formation to splitting up the Spice Girls initial run was 6 year but then Victoria was still recording and releasing music for another 3 years, so her music career was 9 years of her life, not including all the time she spent auditioning for other things as she was actually in a band called Persuasion before she was in Spice Girls... So say 10 years of working within / towards the music industry and that is if we believe honestly that had given up with music by that point when the girls reunited which SHE pushed for no matter what she is claiming.

Oh. Yeah. I noticed that too...that she's making it sound like she was the last to be convinced to do the 2007/2008 reunion tour. My memory of all this is she was saying as early as 2004 that the only way she'd return to music would be an opportunity to work with the Spice Girls. I was under the impression Victoria was one of the major driving forces of the 2007 reunion...and it was Mel C who had to be persuaded back. Credit to Victoria...she honestly did do a pretty great job of hyping that reunion at the time...
