Beth Ditto has described Victoria Beckham as a “total tool” because she uses her skinniest to get attention.

The Gossip frontwoman told the Sun recently: “Posh Spice is an absolute joke.”

“In the 90s she did all that Girl Power s**t, then she realised being thin got her attention. She’s just a total tool.”

“She thought: ‘This is how women get attention, be thin and have opinions only about clothes and men.’ That’s bulls**t. And if I met her I would tell her.”

Beth was equally annoyed that supermodel Kate Moss is in the running against her for the “Sexiest Female” award at Thursday’s NME Awards: “I think it’s ridiculous she’s nominated for an award in the NME. It’s not the New Model Express.”

“It should be about music. For Kate to be up for anything to do with music is absurd.”

“I think the world needs positive influences. Role models for these kids should be people who have a strong place in the music industry as an artist not a sexy woman.”
