Victoria Beckham Taking Speech Lessons To Prepare For Idol!
Posted on Wed Aug 12, 2009 08:10 AM PDT
Victoria Beckham is taking elocution lessons before appearing on American Idol, in an attempt to soften her British accent, according to OK! UK.
The designer is reportedly "determined to impress audiences" during her first judging stint on the hit talent show, so she decided to get some formal training to make sure her accent is "understandable." A source tells the mag, "Victoria knows she has a very thick British accent and is sometimes misunderstood in America. She wanted to come across the best she could on American Idol, so she took some private lessons on how to properly pronounce words and how to make appropriate facial expressions."
Hey, we love Posh just the way she is, so we don't think she has to change her accent, but whatever works! And we've said it before and we'll say it again...we'd LOVE it if she was put on the judging panel permanently! And it's not just because of her eccentric outfits!
Wouldn't you? She's so much more fun than Paula!

Everyone knows people from Britian can't speak english properly.
She is one of the ugliest women I have ever seen in my life, not to mention one of the most untalented. PLEASE go away.
This stupid bitch has no talent and should not be on this show. American Idol is a joke anyway.
Picked out her finest Nazi, sex swapping, S and M gear and her herself a right fine walk on the town. Because that's what everyone wears on their strolls. Androgynous, S.S., S and M, ass whipping gear. Caaahlaaassy!
WON'T WATCH American Idol-WITHOUT PAULA-Victoria B.SUCKS, anyway! WORST SHOW now! STUPID PRODUCERS!!
What are you talking about xonline 17, nobody wants to see her on American Idol, nobody has any desire to see her. Paula is the only person that we want to see.....
she looks like a fool
Victoria B.=UGLY and UNTALENTED!! PAULA= the BEST!! American Idol-WORST SHOW EVER NOW!!
Hilarious.
This show is really shooting itself in the foot. The fact that Beckham is Abdul's replacement indicates the producers are bumbling morons who let their emotions dictate smart long term business decisions. It also indicates that Abdul is hard to replace if they're scraping the barrel with Beckham.
American Idol is so over.
Just desserts for what they did to Abdul.
Freaking men always making problems with their pathetic egos and aggression and sexism. Those execs can't see the forest for the trees. Their show was already dropping and they just put the final nail in the coffin by squeezing out Abdul.
The beauty of it is Abdul jumped a sinking ship at the right time.
Abdul was on a repeat of Letterman yesterday and she is really charming! Go Paula! You have tons of brand new fans from this fiasco.
she is only a guest judge on 2 shows....2 shows which she has already filmed!!! so bullsh*t to this whole article!
she is so pretty, love her very much. it's said she has nice profile on __

ISN'T SHE EDDIE MURPHY'S DAUGHTER ? I BET SHE IS !
ONCE AGAIN X-17 HAS THEIR FACTS WRONG!!!
THE SHOW WAS ALREADY FILMED LAST WEEK WITH HER IN DENVER, CO. DON'T YOU GUYS EVER FACT CHECK?!?!
Be yourself, American Idol is not an audition to acting. The British accent is unique, don't change it for anyone, especially those cockeyed Americans, don't you know they still wear long winter underwear in the summer.
Hahaha, Yeah and then they complain about the heat. LOL.
Global warming my ass, take off your long winter underwear.Hahaha
No other nationalities try to change their accent to suit the American public, why should you. Plus, Americans are turned off by phonies; be real.
That police will replace Paula? :(
Us Canadians, we speak the best English ever!!!!
Actually moving your face has been known to product "appropriate facial expressions." Always frowning, but I would too if I looked like Piggy Spice.
she has a fantastic bod but one butt ugly mug. never seen this sweathog crack
a smile. what a pleasant witch she must be
I like the British accent, it sounds so sophisticated at times you know, especially when the Queen of England's arsewipers are hiding. LOL...
Hahahaha, and the Queen says, and they have enough nerve to demand higher wages....for that shitty job, the nerve of some people.hahaha
take that stupid hat off
Put on your coat and hat'cuz I like it like that. Honey, slip on your shoes'about to rock away your blues.
