Victoria Beckham sues over diet pill claims
Victoria Beckham is spitting mad. Stiletto-kicking mad. Or any of the other ways abnormally small people can be mad. Posh is enraged that a magazine would have the audacity to say she’s on diet pills. Clearly she places quite the priority on health, good wholesome eating, and lots of exercise. There is absolutely no way the 83 pound former singer could possibly be on diet pills. Utterly ludicrous.

Victoria Beckham is dragging a British magazine into court for saying she’s on diet pills.

The skinny star is furious because tabloid rag Now said that she had her sister sneak the tablets from the UK to Los Angeles to help her keep her weight down.

According to reports, the mom of three is said to be “horrified”, and even says the false claims are “dangerous” because she is a role model to so many people.

The former Spice Girl’s agent Jo Milloy said today, “The accusation is dangerous, defamatory and blatantly untrue.

“Victoria takes her position as a role model to young women very seriously and is horrified by this hurtful, fabricated story.

“It is now with her lawyers.”

How dare they say she’s on diet pills! Clearly Posh is just not eating at all. Diet pills imply that she probably puts a morsel or two of food in her mouth. Okay I’m done with the sarcasm. I actually highly doubt this story is true. I’m sure if she uses any kind of help (besides that traditional not putting anything in her mouth route), she’s got a team of doctors that can get her top of the line stuff. Pills and shots and creams the rest of us have never even heard of. Probably stuff that hasn’t even been invented yet. It’s that good. I really doubt Posh has to get her family members to try to smuggle pills through customs.

Here’s Posh and David at the Espy Awards on July 17th. Images thanks to PR Photos.
