Posh’s Dry Humor Gets Dry Welcome from Americans

Posh Spice, aka Mrs. Victoria Beckham, has arrived! Luckily enough, Americans have the unique chance of watching her accommodate herself with LA on TV. What, you don’t care?!!

Victoria Beckham, once Victoria Adams, the poshy one in the Spice Girls, is moving to America with her soccer star husband David Beckham, who has a new team, LA Galaxy. She’s bought the family a house, she’s busy with her designing passion and she’s on TV, like it or not.

Many seem to have chosen the “or not” part. “Victoria Beckham: Welcome to America” premiered Monday night and treated those interested in the matter with some quality time of Victoria showing everyone her “dry sense of humor” as she calls it.

The reality show is meant to allow Posh Spice to share the excitement of moving to the West Coast, setting up a new home and being “just a normal girl from London” who happens to be “living quite a surreal life,” as she recently told the AP.

Victoria, who said on her show that being “fabulous” is “exhausting,” seems to be enjoying herself as she comments that her personal assistants cannot be prettier than her because “it's all got to be about me.”

That tricky “dry sense of humor” of hers that she’s been bringing up in interviews is not enough to lighten up the heavy feeling of her show resembling “an orgy of self-indulgence,” as the New York Post so nicely put it.

Audience or no audience for her show, good reviews or bad, Mrs. Beckham is determined to hang on to that spotlight. While she has been adamant that she does not wish an acting career, temptation seems to be looming nevertheless.

She told the Mirror that a part in “Ugly Betty,” where she’s been asked to star in three episodes playing a rather vile woman, could be just right for her. She said: “I'm seriously considering it. I'd be playing myself... and would get to wear fabulous outfits so it wouldn't be acting.”

We’re sure to hear more of Posh as she continues her work as a designer of clothes, sunglasses and perfume, which she describes as “my passion” and “what I'm good at.”
