Posh and Becks Come to America…So?

By Jess

Everyone and their mother was out Thursday night for the arrival of Victoria and David Beckham at the Los Angels International Airport. Cameras were flashing, people were screaming, Victoria was wearing something tight and black…a repeat of every other time this family has been photographed.

What I don’t understand is why CNN felt the need to cover it.

Much like the Paris Hilton overload, I can’t quite understand why we’re all so interested in this family. Sure, David Beckham is a great soccer player, who also happens to be hot. And his wife likes to shop. And wear outfits that push her boobs up to her chin. But other than that, are they interesting?

Mr. Beckham doesn’t seem to be much of a talker, and it’s not like Victoria has ever said anything that shook the world. I mean, I can understand why people watch Tom and Katie’s every move—Tom’s kinda insane and we’re all hoping Katie will one day speak for herself and let us know how much she was paid to have his kid. Brad and Angelina, that one makes sense too. Brad’s the dad of the year (who got that way by basically having an affair) and Angie never disappoints with her opinionated sound bites and odd behavior. These people make waves.

The Beckhams just float.

What’s your opinion, lovelies? Is there something about Posh and Becks I’m missing? Or are they just over-hyped pretty people?
