Dumb belles at dawn

“Victoria Beckham was involved in a slanging match with a Spanish TV star earlier this week at an exclusive Madrid gym. Posh told 50-year-old Ana Obregon, who has made no secret of her affection for David Beckham, to leave her man alone. ‘Why would he be interested in an old lady like you?’ Posh reportedly asked Ana. ‘Go get some clothes on and act your age.’”

My long-held admiration for Victoria has just increased yet again – it’s about time someone called La Obregon on her publicity-seeking bullshit, and who better than Posh! Ana Obregon dominated the prensa rosa while I lived in Spain, representing all that was ridiculous in the world of Spanish celebrity gossip. Her overly taut skin and inexplicable fondness for wearing skin-tight high-necked tops over her Zeppelin-esque funbags were permanently splashed over the pages of Que me Dices! and Diez Minutos, along with the latest “secrets” of her relationships with Davor Suker and her equally foul male counterpart, Alessandro Lequio. A friend once remarked “Whenever I see one of these putas with a new fur coat, I know that they’ve sold another story to the press” – and Ana was their queen.

However, Ana has ridiculous artificial breasts, scarily skinny legs, and dodgy hair extensions - you can see why David might find that not only attractive, but strangely familiar.
