Stick-thin Posh is told she must eat more ahead of Spice
Girls tour
By KATIE NICHOLL
There's not a spare inch of flesh on Victoria Beckham so I am
shocked to discover that the twiglet-thin star is going on a diet
ahead of the forthcoming Spice Girls Reunion Tour.
The shock is that the diet will involve Posh actually eating
more.
The 33-year-old who maintains her 23in waist by eating steamed
fish and edamame (soybeans) has been told she has to increase her
food intake if she wants to keep up with the strenuous dance
routines planned for the tour, which kicks off in December.
"First Victoria is going on a week-long cleanse where she will only
be able to drink hot lemon water and eat organic fruit and
vegetables to detox her system," says my source.
"She will have to keep this up for five days even though she will
be training. Her new diet is based on eating small bowls of brown
rice with steamed vegetables.
"Her favourite at the moment is steamed spinach, carrots and
tomatoes. She will also be eating beetroot at every mealtime
because it's a good source of fibre and iron and low in
calories."
As well as four or five small meals a day, Posh will have to eat
handfuls of nuts and seeds.
"She is terrified of putting on a single pound and has had to be
talked into increasing her food intake," adds my mole.
"It would be very embarrassing for her if she collapses or gets ill
because she's too weak."
Meanwhile, as Victoria battles to maintain her size zero figure,
her football star husband appears to have developed a preference
for curves.
When interior designer Kelly Hoppen was fitting out the Beckhams'
new LA home, David asked her to source a famous photo of Marilyn
Monroe to hang over the couple's bed.
"David specifically asked for the picture," says a Hollywood
informer.
"He adores Marilyn and thinks the photo of her with rose petals
covering her breasts is a stunning picture. It is hanging above the
bed."
I wonder what the pouting Posh thinks...
