Book Worms

Oy vey oy vey, Victoria Beckham has announced that she is going to start a Hollywood Celeb book club.

As there was nothing more she could come up with, that she has not tried to do to market herself, this is the latest marketing stunt.
Katie Holmes and J-Lo have already announced that they will join in and I would not be surprised if a string of other totally uninteresting actors/singers will join.

Apparently, she is planning to get into the British classics.....erhm.....I would be really surprised if she can get past the 1st page in 'Pride & Prejudice' or any other book for that matter, except her own fashion bible of course...which seems really boring by the way.

I had a look at it the other day and I managed to read a few lines on the back of the book and found myself snoring away to the dismay of the book shop employees. However, they seemed to know what it was all about as they rushed over and grabbed her book out of my hands and said: "we really have GOT to move this book to the back of the store, or get a bed in here".....

The interesting thing about VB starting a book club is that she has admitted to never reading a book in her life. And what, NOW is the time in her life to start?

She is planning her move to LA, and with Becks being all tied up to the football thingy, she is looking for some amusement. Eating is not an option, shopping is something she does without thinking and looking after the kids is something she does when she has some spare time.
So what better than diverting attention into a book......probably one with many pictures....
I can really imagine how the monthly book club meetings will be like:


VB: So ladies, we are gathered here today to talk about the book we all read, 'Pride & Prejudice'.

KH: Sorry, but I didn't really get the time to read more than a few pages, Tom had me attend those SCI-FI meetings whenever there was some spare time, so I only got to read when I was in the bathroom.

J-Lo: Well, I read the book, and I am thinking of making a clothing line called PP. Oh, and I was thinking I might join your SCI-FI meetings Katie cause I want to get pregnant and Marc keeps telling me he is too busy to pro-create, so I guess I am going to have to resort to other ways.

VB:So when are these SCI-FI meetings held Katie? And can I bring my nanny with me?

KH: I am not sure where they are held. The driver picks me up and takes me there. Blindfolded.

J-Lo: Oooooooooooo Kinky!

VB: Do you get to sip champagne on the way?

J-Lo: The Dr told me not to drink while trying to get pregnant. It can make me less fertile.

VB: Oh don't you listen to those hocus-pocus people. DRs! Who needs them! Look at me, I was told I couldn't become pregnant!

KH: Tom told me if you can't become pregnant it's cause some alien is in your body preventing you to conceive.

J-Lo: I might just have to try the SCI-FI and if that doesn't work, I will go to Haiti and visit a VOODOO woman.

VB: Are you sure that's a good idea? Your kid might be the fruit of the devil then.

J-Lo: Oh wow FRUIT OF THE DEVIL, sounds like a nice album name...........Listen ladies, gotta dash. Have so many new ideas in my head. Hasta la vista muchachas!

VB: So Katie, did you like the book?

KH: Yeah I got so many fashion ideas from your book. It paved the way for me and my ambitions of becoming a fashion icon.

VB: Well, no darling, you can't. I am already THE fashion icon.

KH: Boo-Hoo....you hurt me. I am going home to Tom. And the SCI-FI people. They always treat us so well when we pay them a visit.

VB: So Victoria (to herself), did YOU like the book? Well, I've got a confession to make. I didn't read it. Only the summary at the back. Sounds awfully boring.....*yawn*.....*picks up Vogue and walks away....*
