Victoria Beckham: being both a mum and icon is stressful
Victoria Beckham has revealed she gets “massively stressed” being a mother of three at the same time as being seen as a fashion icon - but the key is in multitasking.
She revealed: “Being a mother’s taught me not to waste time faffing about in the closet every morning. You learn how to get things done quicker, and often you do them just as well.”
“Nowadays, I multitask, planning outfits while I’m doing something else - getting ready for bed or taking a bath.”
“Even though I love getting dressed up, there’s always the risk of baby sick down my front. That’s why I live in jeans and T-shirts [around the house].”

BLAIR - totally agree with you.
Sooooo, it’s obvious what you must do, or it would be obvious to a normal unselfish less conceited person - put all your energies into being a mum & stop TRYING to be an icon!
The world will survive without VB’s pathetic attempts to gain public attention.
I can’t believe she has the cheek even to complain about this - what does she want? - sympathy?

SHE IS SOOOO PATHETIC~! Why is she spilling her guts about this? Does she want to appear to the public as one of us? It’s not working Vicky– Sorry, no one can or should have one ounce of sympathy for you… you need to realize that the average, working mum does not have the luxury of having millions in the bank and at her disposal– no, you are complete waste of space as well as an insecure, fame-addicted B****! We, the public have absolutely no use for you what-so-ever– go home and be with your boys’ and family- they are the ones that care/love you– we certainly don’t and we are sick of your over-exposed sour puss face leaping out at as from every magazine cover- GO AWAY!

Poor girl, I almost feel sorry for her, but then that is what she wants - public sympathy!! At least that way she can keep her ugly mutt in the press! It must be worse than being on the dole (NOT!!!!)
Icon or Mum - oh dear me, what a big problem she has - does she not realise that when you’re a mum your children come before everything! Including your self-indulgent hyped up fame.
She has lost all sense of reality - just get out of our faces!! We are soooo tired of looking a you!

The Beckhams are a victim of the monster they have tried so hard to create over the past 8 years - it is now way out of control & only they can stop it.
Through their sheer greed, stupidity & obsession for high celebrity status they now cannot even go through an airport without their epileptic son Romeo being photographed.
Yes, it’s sad about Romeo (& thousands of other children who also have this condition) but they only have themselves to blame for the way they have chosen to live, but surely they should have realised earlier than this the consequences of pushing yourself so much in the public’s faces that there would be negative consequences that go hand in hand with the £100 million they have already earned. They are hypacripts to call “wolf” now, after they have conjured it along for so long.
Their greediness has come back to bite them on the bum

I don`t think David is to be blamed for the overexposing of the Beckham clan cause he was a great player before he married “Posh”, but she saw it as an opportunity to stay famous when she turned him into paparazzi food cause her “Spice” star was already fading by the time they married. If she had remained Victoria Adams as alot of stars do when they marry, she wouldn`t have been noticed as much but being “VICTORIA BECKHAM” has done alot for her, and with her great sense of style (I have to admit) he got turned into a “Male Fashion Icon”, so I guess they both won but I think if it was up to him he would`ve been just another famous Soccer player but not a “Beckham god”

Not you that’s for sure.’Til you need to use them for a pic’.
