So it seems that Victoria Beckham, still known to most of the tabloid-drooling world as Posh Spice, has cooked up a diet and exercise regimen to get her bandmates in shape for their upcoming Spice Girls reunion tour. Maybe "cooked up" is pushing it. You know, since the diet is oh-so-unshockingly her own secret of starvation success: strawberries, lettuce and edamame. And with all the energy that sparks in her size 14x pre-teen body, Posh does 200 sit-ups a day.
Sit-ups and strawberries? Is this genius plan supposed to work for the very pregnant Emma Bunton and for Mel B, who just gave birth five minutes ago? Although I'm no poster mama for getting back into fighting (or dancing around in spandex and acrylic platform boot) shape, I am having a hard time believing that this diet would serve a mother well who is breastfeeding or even needs just enough strength to lift a bottle of formula to the baby's mouth, let alone aide in the final weeks of gestation with all that brain development and whatnot.
If this is true (because the celeb goss gods would not impart such insider information to us if it weren't, right?), then I would just advise the Spice Mamas in the group to put down the lettuce leaves for a sec and take a look at the four bezillion pictures of Vicky online. She never smiles. Ever. And there's a reason for that: She's hungry as a mutha and she's probably got terrible neck pain from doing sit-ups, which haven't been cool to do since the Jane Fonda era. You can bet yer jiggly ass that could all be taken care of in as long as it takes to walk down to the burrito shack and scarf a Milky Way. Remember that during "lunch time," ladies.
