Posh and Becks

photosource: DailyMail

The Beckhams leaving the British shore to the more sunnier ground:LA. Eh Zewt, is sunnier ground is equal to the proverbial "the grass is greener on the other side"?

Umm....what can be said about Posh and Becks that has not been told yet (plenty more i supposed in the very near future gossip columns in The Sun and Daily Mail)? I found this photo on AP most viewed photos linked to yahoo.com. I think Lily would come up with much better things to say/anecdotes about this couple.




They definitely wanna make a ginormous entrance in LA....just recently, Becks was voted the hottest English male based on the E! Entertainment Hollywood pole. And Victoria also made some story of herself there besides that whole Spice Girls reunion and her boobs (wot-e-va).



Married for 8 years, produced 3 boys and hoping for more to come esp in the form of a girl this time, most talked and gossiped after couple in Britannia, Posh probably the most famous WAGs or the eponymous WAGs, ape lagi yea....makji esah, tolong sambung........



Both wrote a biography book about themselves and both love to be showered in limelight appearing in many different styles from head to toe whether alone or together. You either worship them, love them, idolize them, admire them or despise them but they managed to get going all these years.

Hi Manal,

When I lived in UK, this couple hogged almost all the front pages of the tabloids. They sell so well, so every tabloid took advantage of the situation. The downside is the side effects. They are then deemed as the role models for the younger generation. This is where things go wrong. Similarly in our backyard, the tabloids raise most of our celebs to such a high status that the youths don't quite get real motivating role models..getting people with real subsatnce. Sigh...

Dear kak Ruby ,

There we go. Ruby 'Oprah' Ahmad has spoken.

NO matter what we public think or concern, these mass media are money-oriented. What sells is far more important than the side effects. But the good thing about posh and becks is that the fact that they are actually loving the attention and publicity made about them hence the almost immaculate and sometimes bizzarre OTT appearance and fashion in public.

Even serious mags like 'Time' and 'Newsweek' have already compromised on including movies/singer celebs to be covered or as the cover in their mag issues. Such "leniency" is an evident that celebrities are as much as a global public figures as those political leaders, entrepeneurs, rich IT-software fellas, philantropists, peace core activists, Nobel Laureates and so on. The only exception is who is "rightly" enuf to be selected that carries the "rightful" image besides the possibility of increasing their selling circulations.

At the end of the day, we the consumers must be selective and fully aware which is tabloid material and which is informative material. And u know what kak ruby, i think all teachers in both high and primary school levels shud always include current issues discussion or reading in class for each subject taught. They sure know mawi, shah rukh khan and daniel wu but do they know Bill Gates?

Hi Zewt,

That'll take australia, LA, Miami, Mediteranean countries, singapore, and few others out of ur "greener side" places....

Boobs issue thiny....naahhh not that important laa...but the clue here is about people thinking posh's boobs looks bigger than what she's been claiming a 32B size. U do know these cup sizes right, mate?

1. never heard of LA Galaxy till becks said he's moving there.

2. Didn't know people actually play football in LA. Ooops, they don't, they play soccer.

3. how come they have so much money to pay beckam to play for them?

4. isn't soccer widely regarded by american football freaks as girl's game? Ah... i guess becks' voice would fit in just nice

Beck may not be a suitable role model socially (esp with all his alleged affairs while in spain) but our pathetic football team can definitely learn alot from him...

He's a no brainer but because he had strong determination to be good in what he does (crosses and corners) he practised just that day in day out when he was young. He also proved that you dont really need a brain to be a football star! heheh..

Manal, I heard over the radio the other day, that Becks is already in negotiation terms with Tom Cruise/Steven Spielberg (not sure which one though, somehow I got mixed up between these 2 celebs) on a possible movie role. Gasp! as the deejay had said, hopefully he'd get a silent/mute role.

Surely you have heard his voice right? Not to undermine his rather nasal voice or anything (I mean I have such a voice too), but it's not how a hero would normally sound like, unless he's interested to lead a sitcom (think Ray Romano of Everybody Loves Raymond - he's very nasal).

Woit, I've done your Tagged for Charity thingy...

ManaL said...

Aloo sue ,

1. Me too...

2. Ooo...that one...of courrrsse they do play soccer there but mostly those hispanic mechanic lads either the long inhabitants, short immigrant term, cousins of those two type of groups, fajita and tapas restaurant workers, those white losers who cant play basketball, baseball or that american football (and possibly NASCAR), and anyone who's blood-related to south american.

3. They think BIG. Dont u know, one of the richest men in the world is a mexican? (presumably involved) and in LA LA land, anything's possible.

4. That one...hmm look at his wife, even she's more manly than him. lets see whether becks gonna stride around in his metallic shiny nailpaints and more bizzarre tattoos...

ManaL said...

Hazyrrrr ,


U r the Gabby Logan...whatever u say, woman, goes....

He does have a brain, but only for certain, very "special" use like procreations, playing footie, dressing up and the ability to keep his mouth shut except to swear on the turf.

Bapak Ikhwan,

Sengau gitewww.....? Darth vader had James Earl Jones to do voice-over...Ray Romano is New Jersey/Queens nasal and thats a different case altogether...Becks will do the action or at least squinting his eyes and be like clint eastwood in the good, the bad and the ugly. Or he can act in fantasy-action movies like matrix, star wars or LOTR whichever requires more action than talking and plenty of CGIs and other special effect. It's his look and physique that matters to the moviemakers (and advertisement companies).

Hey, thanks mate for ur participation!
