Viki has often been criticized for failing to smile just a tiny bit, but her frame and sense of style have never been subjected to as much criticism as after the premiere episode of American Idol’s ninth season.
In August 2009 I told you Victoria Beckham was invited to guest judge at the show temporary replacing Paula Abdul who left the project after eight years. While Posh was really supportive of the contestants, smiling and trying to show her other side we’d never seen before, her guest appearance on the show was named the biggest failure of the premiere episode. Pretty harsh, isn’t it?
See it for yourself.
The Washington Post:
Beckham-Spice appears to have cracked open her head, because it seemed to be held together with a strip of lace she found in her granny’s closet. The other Idol judges politely pretended not to notice.”
The Los Angeles Times:
The night’s saddest failure, however, was guest judge Victoria Beckham, who actually made plenty of appealing comments and bonded beautifully with fellow judge Kara DioGuardi but whose gaunt appearance was so off-putting it might have cost her the slot DeGeneres eventually won.”
The Village Voice:
[Victoria's] face is just too crazy for the close-up, and she has nothing to add to the commentary… I always thought a British accent made people sound smart but I guess I was wrong. Simon really does have that X-Factor.”
Never thought I would feel that but I feel sorry for Viki. She must be pissed.
