Posh To Judge American Idol!!!
Filed under: TV News > Victoria Beckham > Paula Abdul > American Idol > Simon Cowell
They sure do work fast!!!
Just two days after Paula Adbul's unexpected departure from American Idol, Simon Cowell has tapped Victoria Beckham for a one-time appearance on the judging panel.
POSH?!?! Really?
Vic even recently admitted about her talents that "I worked hard at it. I was never going to be the best singer or dancer."
That statement doesn't leave us very confident. How is she supposed to judge talent when she doesn't have any much?!
Being polished and well-dressed won't help us turn a deaf ear!!!
And Victoria's opinion doesn't come cheap, as she's reportedly earning £155,000 (over $220,000) for the one-time stint on the competition show.
Although Posh has no definite interest in a seat on the panel for the long term, we'd like to see some prescription induced complaints on Paula's behalf.

You're SLOW YET AGAIN
Only in America someone would take "Posh Spice" seriously.

Re: **LondonHockeyGurL** – Hey Hottie….go ballsilly……..
So excited-love Victoria! But bringing in celebrity guest judges won't replace Paula!
Don't watch, don't care.
Posh isn't even worth 2 cents. I hope she gets voted off
I heard she was replacing Paula, I.E. coming on as a judge FULL TIME! I hope that happens! Love Vicky B!
Perez, what happened with your court date with the Black Eye Peas Manager? Aug 5, wasn't it?
Re: Long Dong Connery – Wsup Dong ?the NHL won't let it happen they would rather see another team in Cali then Canada.
What the hell is she doing in this picture? Ain't her husband a girley man?
Re: flashdeck – Don't talk bad about America, baby.
You, Perez, think that people with no talent should not criticize other people? Then let me ask you one question… WHAT THE F*CK are you doing all the time?!?
I disagree that this is a bad idea. If she is honest enough to judge herself accurately, the likelihood is greater that she can be a decent judge. You don't have to have great talent to know what it is when you see / hear it. People are ragging on Paula, about how she isn't a great singer, but … pfft - neither are Simon or Randy. Neither are Clive Davis or Quincy Jones or most music producers …
Simon Cowell asked me…….i had to decline!!!!!!!!!
Yo don't have to be good at something to be able to judge another persons ability. I can't play basketball, but I can judge talent. Not the best actor, but I've judged plays. Perez is ugly as hell and a prick, but they had him on a Miss America panel.
Replace one untalented hack with another. Great move.
This made me LOL, WTF does Victoria Beckham know about talent??? She has none herself, talk about fucking ironic! Those who have talent should judge others on their talent! A mediawhore is not classed as TALENT! bye bye AI if she joins!
Are you having a laugh, what talent has she got, to be in a position to be a judge, have you heard her sing, only in america, def wont be watching
Re: flashdeck –
If I remember correctly, The Spice Girls are from the UK and were quite popular there.
I would so watch if she was on! love her!!
i'd like paula to stay, but LOVE the idea of posh as a permanent judge.
The British are coming, the British are coming.
Simon Cowell is making his move. He's bringing his peeps into the spotlight.
I wanna see Posh's work permit. What right does she have to work in this country?
I just want to see what she wears. Because she is only on for one visit and will make more than most people do in 5 years. Hmmm…Yeah, they live in
a different world.
wow. wtf does she know about music she was a spice girl for gods sake lol
im so sad.. im not watching anymore unless paula returns
we love u paula .. come back you crazy bitch
Wont be the same with out paula!!! ill still watch it though along side my chrome soda!
Because Simon Cowell has so muuuch stage talent himself, not to mention Paula's career.
Awesome! I love her!
I don't watch AI, but I'd check that episode out!
wow, way to up the suck factor AI.
mario, you judge others morals and yet you have none
You ask "How is she supposed to judge talent when she doesn't have any much?!" Hmm…you have NO talent at all, yet you seem to think you're qualified to judge it in others so why would Posh, whose apparent lack of talent has earned her millions, a sizzling hot husband you could only dream about having, and status as a fashion icon, be less qualified than you?
That will be the one show all season that I will not watch. She makes me gag.
She was a 5th of one the biggest pop acts ever, she knows what it takes. she worked for years at her singing and dancing so she'd be a great judge. does randy or simon have singing talent? ummm no, it's not abotu talent judging talent its about ppl who know the business judging those who want to get into the business. perez hating on others will just lead to everyone hating you. I read your site less these days cuz u hate more, i liked it more back whern u used to be helping gaga and katy get big but now u just seem to like to tear ppl down. Is that because it's easier to be hurtful? Perez do you want ppl hating on everything you do? that wouldn't be to hard your not amazingly attractive and your not successful off your own talent or contributions ur just a huge gossip, a leech at best.
I'm just interested in seeing what outlandish outfits she's gonna be wearing..
OMG!! how dare she reject the UK's X-factor (even though it's as shight as AI) for American Idol! and for a smaller pay check!!
Bitch.
Yes Posh (hardly) was in the Spice Girls but she didn't actually sing any solo parts. She just did chorus singing and posing on stage. For someone that has practically no talent, she has done incredibly well for herself although a big part of that is due to her marrying David Beckham. If she hadn't then she would be like the other Spice Girls and only in the peripheral of the celebrity scene, or maybe she'd be giving Scary Spice a run for her money doing strip shows and parading about in bikinis and high heels, wearing far too much make up to cover her acne skin…oops she's already doing that!! Posh Spice is a vacuous, skeletal, sour-faced cow. I really hope she doesn't return to the UK…..
Paula quit you reap what you sew.
go pozh……
You know, when American Idol first hit the air waves & Paula Abdul was announced as one of the judges, I balked at that idea. I grew up during the 80's & remember Paula as a singer, as a pop figure & as an entertainer. And if it wasn't for her dancing, she wouldn't have had the career she did. What kept Paula interesting & entertaining on Idol was her lack of knowledge, her slurred speech; she became a caricature of herself. And we ate it up.
Now with Victoria Beckham, she's a name & a very recognizable face, like Katie Holmes on 'So You Think You Can Dance'. She will bring viewers, but, just like Paula, she doesn't have the talent & shouldn't be judging a "talent" contest. But this is TV folks, & talent doesn't overshadow commerce.
Well, she was a spice girl… Hahahaha.
if someone is a fan of this woman, can u please explain to me the appeal? she has no talent, she looks ridiculouse, shes ugly, shes a poser and a bad one at that. what is there to like about her? please explain.
I hate this anorexic bitch, what a good reason not to watch a very boring show!!!!
