Joan “Messed with the Wrong Person”? friggin Posh Spice?!? please. PLEASE.

Please.

as much as Joan’s career is beyond over, and was never much more than an annoying, high pitched blabbermouth in the first place [think Fran Drescher], she makes an incredibly true, simple, blinding fact obvious… that indeed, Her Majesty Victoria Beckham is JUST A SPICE GIRL. VB has no more claim to fame then Paris Hilton. she’s famous for being famous… famous for marrying famous, even! i don’t get why people even give a sh*t about her. she’s NOTHING.

I donnot think Victoria is funny at all. She says stupids things about wearing high-heels on treadmills, not wanting to be photog wearing flats whilst being pulled over by a cop (Coming to America….HUGE FLOP)- something about tractor exhausts and her husband’s private parts. I get the British humor - she’s just not funny. Her “funny” statements are self-serving and contrived designed to promote this hairbrain image she is trying to create for herself.

Now that more people have paid attention to Leeanne’s comment, I do see the real concern, it had nothing to do with the story at all. I was on a dull day.

Sorry ’bout that Boobaloob.

Thanks to anna elizabeth for explaining.

@Geronimo- I couldn’t agree more. Posh is super funny and down-to-eath, she is making fun of herself when she comes off otherwise.

I didn’t get offended by Leeanne’s comment. I don’t agree, but she didn’t say anything bad about Jews. I wish people would get back to throwing sticks and stones, and stop letting words hurt them so much.

Joan Rivers is a legend. I am so glad some people out there are still aware of that fact. And, she invented that red carpet s***. Do you ever remember it being so pervasive before she started doing it? I don’t.

I don’t think it’s what Joan Rivers said so much as that she said it at all. Did someone ask her opinion and why did she have to be so nasty about it? People expect Joan Rivers to be funny as well as cutting. But there was absolutely nothing amusing about what she said. I think that’s what has people all atitter.

I used to love Joan Rivers with her obnoxious brand of humor. I haven’t much cared for the mother/daughter act with Melissa, but do understand her desire to be with her daughter, as that’s all she has.

I also like Posh, she does look frozen in most pictures, but I’ve seen her in TV interviews where she was laughing and funny. I respect her parenting and I covet her husband.

And I thought the Leeanne remarks were extremely prejudiced and politically incorrect.

Oh my God!! I completely forgot she was in Spaceballs!

“That’s my virgin alarm; programmed to go off before you do!”

I do think a lot of people in this country fail to grasp Victoria’s humor. We tend to say exactly what we’re thinking (for good or ill), while Brits tend to be a lot more tongue-in-cheek. It’s the reason I gave up trying to get my friends into Douglas Adams, Americans just don’t get it for the most part.

I think they are both funny as hell. And I seriously doubt that Posh gives a fig what Joan says about her.

And leeanne’s comment was extremely offensive, whether it was meant to be or not
