Victoria Beckham Is Spotty Spice
Not even her Poshness can be glam all the time

It turns out that the always immaculate Victoria Beckham can have her off days just like the rest of us … Mrs. Beckham was spotted (pardon the pun) skulking around SoCal this week lookin’ very unpretty. Trust me, we all have our days when we don’t feel much like gettin’ all glammed up and we don’t mind being a bit grody … and so, I guess that even glamazons like Vicki B. have those days as well … behold:


Victoria Beckham has – rather unusually – kept herself out of the spotlight for almost two weeks, and now it’s clear why. The former Spice Girl is suffering from a rather unfortunate bout of acne. Despite her best efforts to avoid being seen in public, she was photographed skulking around Beverly Hills on Wednesday. The former Spice Girl did her best to deflect attention from her spots in a pair of outrageously short denim cut-offs as she stepped out with son Cruz. The 34-year-old has been blighted by outbreaks since she was a teenager and has gone to rather extraordinary lengths to treat her skin in recent years. Victoria has been regularly indulging in £100 Geisha Facials, using a paste made from nightingale droppings. A friend told Closer magazine recently: “When Victoria was in Japan recently she was admiring the local women’s clear skin and discovered it was down to these facials. She was intrigued and when she got back to the US she found that some New York beauty salons now offer the treatment. She tried it and loved how great her skin looked. She also uses a cream derived from nightingale poo at home.” But it seems not even the most expensive – and down right bizarre – treatments are enough to starve off a dreaded breakout. Meanwhile, Victoria is counting down to the return of her husband David from his six-month stint with AC Milan. He will rejoin LA Galaxy on July 11, with his first match scheduled five days later.

You know … VB looks fine, we all have skin problems to deal with. But, because Vicki B. lives such an extravagant lifestyle of near perfection, I think it’s a good idea to see that celebs like VB are just like you and me. I don’t know that rubbing nightingale droppings on one’s face is the way to go when a little dab of Clean & Clear Invisible Acne Blemish Treatment will do the trick quite nicely. Let this go to show that celebs are not always perfect … they really have to deal with life’s little complications like like rest of us.

    believe me poshy, i’ve been there. if we’re trading beauty secrets, i’ve found that neutrogena treatment pads help to keep the breakouts to a minimum.

    I’m so happy to know that she’s normal. We all have those days.

  3. Frisa says:

    Yayyyy…maybe she’s not a robot after all. But it is nice to see that she is just one of the girls. She shouldn’t be ashamed of it and its sad that people and the paps make her feel like she needs to hide from the public eye because of a few blemishes. Will pidgeon poop work too :)

  5. CHASE says:

    RAH! I hate Clean and Clear products. I don’t have acne but I do occasionally break out every once in awhile and I use ST. Ives. Anyway, poor Vikki!

    I had skin problems awhile back and had really good luck with Proactive. Actually, it worked so well that I didn’t have an acne problem again for years until recently when I added canola oil to my diet. Ever since, I’ve been breaking out like crazy. Now I can either cut out delicious home fried corn tortilla chips or pick up some more of that Proactive. I think Proactive is going to win that battle.

    a celebrity has acne, wow……..I guess celebs are humans afterall!

    Victoria has Polycystic Ovary Syndrome … The average acne cream will not make a difference.

  11. Kris says:

    I absolutely love Victoria Beckham…everyone says shes such a robot, but watch her in interviews..She is HILARIOUS and thats probably an understatement. She is secretly a riot…I wish I knew her in real life hahahah

  12. Elle says:

    why are you promoting acne medication through a stupid post about a celeb with a few zits? Why is this news/gossip worthy……..
