Victoria Beckham: "Bullying gave me a very thick skin"

Posted by heatworld 09 December 2009 09:29

Victoria Beckham:

Victoria Beckham has been talking about her fashion business in a new interview, and says it was the bullying she suffered at school that has made her such a driven person today. "I was mentally and physically bullied when I was at school and that gave me a very thick skin," she explained to Women's Wear Daily. "The only reason for me bringing that up is I have always been a fighter. I have always had to work very, very hard with everything I do. That is just my work ethic." Posh says she fully plans on "keeping her head down" in the fashion industry for some time, adding, "It’s about doing things gradually and building the brand in a strategic way. At the start, it was tough because people had preconceptions, but I worked incredibly hard and kept my head down. I’ve got a long, long way to go and a lot of work to do, and I will always feel that I have to prove myself, always." VB is very determined to make it as a fashion designer, though, saying firmly, "I plan on still being here in 25 to 30 years’ time." Go Posh!

    everyone is saying she always looks unhappy, the poor woman has hundreds of photographers following her every move, they take thousands of pictures every time she leaves her house. The posh spice was a character to help create the spice girls brand and the press have given her this grumpy image so the pictures of her that get publishes are the ones where she is not smiling. however anyone that knows her comments on how funny and lovely she is!!!!! i think i know who i'm going to believe!

    I wish she would cheer up, she just seems so unhappy and ungrateful all the time. She should just enjoy life a bit more instead of walking around in severe dresses and shoes with a severe look on her face. People would like her more if she lightened up.

    I do think she is one lucky woman, who wouldnt want everything she has? So why the hell does she walk around with a face like a smacked arse all the time?

    But what has she done since, hoohoo? She's not released anything solo that has been a hit, she's not that great a designer and she's not really a writer etc. She's basically just Mrs. Beckham now.

    If she enjoyed eating more, she would probably be a happier person. There is a healthy balance between eating what you want here and there and still keeping fit, us normal people manage it. I agree scarlet, she just seems to constantly look down her nose at people but then sometimes you catch her being this great person then she closes up again, she cannot help herself.
