But he’s already got Tik Tok virality on his side. I’ll be surprised if this isn’t a 9-week stretch at number 1 (well, depending when he drops the next single - if he even does?) but I guess we’ll seeee (maybe I am over estimating though ofc)

Going viral on TikTok is just a sign that the song does have wide appeal though. Again, it won't last if people don't actually like the song.

I don't think anyone is on Brooklyn's side are they?

Most of the stuff I've seen are people taking the p!ss out his statement because its so silly.

I dunno, I've seen more people on Brooklyn's side but maybe that's my echo chamber effect

Makes me think though that the song/ people listening to her album etc wouldn't be doing it if they weren't exactly on her side...

But maybe its just a viral affect

Come on Victoria, now is the perfect time to get 'Let Your Head Go' and 'This Groove' added to streaming services!!

She owns the rights now and apparently has no interest which is such a pity to not even chuck them on Spotify for the 10 fans who still care.

I mean, I definitely believe Brooklyn and absolutely believe that Victoria & David would be more focussed on their brand than actually being honest about things. And sources have come out to confirm Brooklyn’s comments on Victoria’s behaviour at the wedding.

All that being said… I don’t really care enough about celebrity drama like this in a way that affects my life. So I’m just enjoying the memes and riding the wave of listening to Victoria Beckham because the revival and the story are camp

Hmmm I’m not team Brooklyn. These are private matters and for him to break the trust of privacy within his family is a big NO. It screams tantrum because his parents don’t approve of his marriage. For all we know there could be valid reasons there but Vic and David aren’t going to publicly challenge their son. Just a bit icky. 🤷

BUT totally here for a shock VB chart revival so thank you Brooklyn!

Apple

101 Victoria Beckham - Not Such an Innocent Girl

'Aperture' #9 on Amazon already

Wizkid/Asake up to #23 on Apple (I see they've released a collaborative EP, a second song from it showing up at #100) - African music always seems to overperform on Apple but fingers crossed this might be able to contend for top 40 next week, Asake is long overdue a top 40 hit.

Was annoyed when Wave peaked at 41, fingers crossed Asake can finally get a top 40!

The Harry song doesn’t scream hit to me, I don’t see it being a long running #1 like As It Was.

From what I’m seeing him and his wife are 2 spoiled brats, all he’s really alleging is they don’t like his wife (which doesn’t exactly make either of them victims) but provides absolutely no context as to why that is. Considering her (billionaire) family’s links with Trump and Elon Musk I can see why the Beckhams would hesitate to welcome her into the family with open arms!

Just realised if 'Not Such An Innocent Girl' does properly take off in the chart then both acts in the 2000 'Posh vs. Posher' chart battle will have experienced 2020s resurgences, following the second wind of Sophie Ellis-Bextor's 'Murder On The Dancefloor' as well

Vicky B loses my support once you bring the orange manbaby and the social equivalent of Stalin into play 🤣

In its release week there was hype about “Not Such An Innocent Girl” going up against “Can’t Get You Out Of My Head”, also in its release week. The latter sold around 10 times more in its first week and became a million seller, while the former isn’t even silver. The latter has 830 million Spotify streams to the former’s 3 million.

I wonder if this will be the first week the former has ever outperformed the latter, 25 years on.

Was it not against Out of Your Mind? Or was that against Spiller?

LYHG was such a bop!

Here for the resurgence - can't imagine it was on anyone's list of things for 2026

I’m not really up for a revival based on a news story!

I don’t think it’s silly at all, personally…
