    Shayne Lamas, dear - I used to teach an educational program for folks who had been arrested for DUI, and I often heard, "But I only had one drink."

    One five gallon pail sucked down with a straw does NOT meet the guidelines for a legal cocktail. #victoriabeckham

    It's nice to see that Posh is bringing attention to areas like rural Kentucky, which has some of the worst poverty in the country, but isn't considered a "trendy poor" among celebrity activists. The people in these areas really are trapped in a cycle of education-based poverty. #victoriabeckham

    @likepenguins: How awesome was 'Under Pressure'? I was like, I bet you anything they'll do Vanilla Ice, and then they did! I know they basically herald the end of civilisation as we know it, but damn they're funny. Their rendition of 'Oops I Did It Again' that first week was the funniest thing I have seen on television in years. I was sobbing with laughter! #victoriabeckham

    I was a chauffeur during the summer in college for an outdoor music venue, and Aretha was one of the performers. She was always notoriously picky about how things went down, from asking only for male drivers (she just felt "safer") to requesting half her payment in cash before going on stage, even putting some of it in her bra. Air conditioning was also verboten. I later learned that she demands the air conditioning be turned off b/c poisonous gas was pumped into the air system of a venue during one her shows in the 70's, and she's be terrified of a repeat ever since. Knowing these things (as well as story from my pilot/flight attendant parents about Aretha in first class with a gentleman friend in the 70's), seals it for me. Aretha was/is crazy/awesome. #victoriabeckham

    @JJHuggnstuff: I've heard that a lot of performers of her generation demand the cash thing too, because so many of them just got cheated out of their money and are afraid of that happening. #victoriabeckham

    @JJHuggnstuff: I'm all for giving Aretha her due, but the way I read the link, she wants the air conditioning turned off to the whole arena while she's in it and I've been to enough uncomfortable concerts to know that's probably not the best idea.

    Still, Jann could just block her vents and said it was off, it's not like she'd know the difference.

    I clicked the link to the VB article and was pleasantly surprised. Those photos with the kids with Beckham were really lovely. I want very much to be cynical and say that she was merely doing this for some good publicity, but I don't think that is the case. As far as photo ops and charity work go, there are far more glamourous causes these days (hence why every damn celebrity/socialite shills for Operation Smile), and more exotic places to go that Clay County, Kentucky. Her smile seemed really genuine, and even if she was playing it up for the cameras, I highly doubt that those kids were. #victoriabeckham

    @Tchotchke: I really liked the last one where you can barely see her. I think a lot of celebs would have insisted on sitting at the front of that big crowd of kids rather than being jammed way in at the back.

    But as I said in another thread I am an unabashed VB apologist! #victoriabeckham

    Is "I hate doing school scenes and office scenes" the hollywood equivalent of "I never want to have a desk job?" Are offices so terrible that even pretending to work in one is miserable? #victoriabeckham

Secretly, movie stars desperately want to be just like us, working in offices, complaining about air conditioning and eavesdropping on conversations in the next cubicle. #victoriabeckham

    @helladesigner: She has the same smile and upturned, scrunchy mouse nose as my little sister. They really do look similar So I can only be fond of VB as a result! Plus she always seems really funny and self-deprecating in interviews, she's very happy to take the piss out of herself, which I appreciate in a celebrity. #victoriabeckham

    @rah29: Aww, that's really cute! Your sister must be adorable. My younger sister resembles Little J on Gossip Girl, so I get what you're saying :)

    I just think it's so funny how VB's entire face changes when she smiles. It's quite lovely. I've watched a couple of her interviews, and I've found myself smiling when she smiles or laughs. (But I'm also one of those people who cries and laughs when someone else is crying or laughing, I can't help but be emotive.) #victoriabeckham
