Lady Victoria Beckham? Is This A Halloween Nightmare?
The long, distinguished line of British nobility, dating all the way back to the days of William the Conquerer, must be rolling over in their various graves this Halloween. Recent news from London indicates that soccer star David Beckham may soon be named a knight of the realm — Sir David Beckham, to you. All of which is fine and dandy, except when you realize one thing — this knighthood would inevitably result in the creation of Lady Victoria Beckham!
I know, you are probably screaming right this minute, just like I was when the realization dawned on me. Posh Spice as Lady Victoria Beckham? I don’t think the world is ready for this. This is more of an affront to civilized society than anything that Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan have done. Far more. Victoria Beckham is completely and utterly lacking in any kind of class at all. She is totally devoid of taste, decorum, bearing — all of those qualities which are required in at least microscopic amounts for membership in Britain’s upper-crust realm. Even Charles and Camilla, in the depths of their tampon scandal, had a bit more class than Victoria Beckham. This cannot be allowed to go forward.
I hope that the British Prime Minister’s office, or whoever comes up with the list of nominees for a knighthood, comes to their senses and withdraws Beckham’s name. Once he is knighted, it cannot be undone. We’ll be stuck with Lady Victoria Beckham for ever. It will turn into a media event that will eclipse Brad and Angelina’s invasion of Namibia. Victoria Beckham will become, in a word, insufferable.
And don’t forget — if this Halloween nightmare comes to pass, Lady Beckham’s good friend Katie Holmes will experience a jealousy that knows no bounds. And God only knows what Tom Cruise will do to make it up to Katie. He’ll probably buy a small Central European country and install Katie as queen. Lady Victoria and Queen Katie. Is this what 2007 may have in store for us all?

Hardly. If Victoria really is ‘totally devoid of taste, decorum, bearing’, surely she’ll fit right in with any number of today’s born nobles, with whom she shares so much space in tabloids.
David seems lovely and his work with children’s charities is noble.
