Victoria Beckham Jokes About Being Too Old for Vogue Covers

Is Victoria Beckham too old to do any more Vogue covers? The fashion designer think so.

According to The Sun, Posh Spice joked to Claudia Winkleman during the Vogue 100: A Century of Style last Thursday which was held in the National Portrait Gallery, that "when I hear another Vogue cover has come up, I will always say 'this is the last one, because I'm a bit of an old bag now. Surely this is the last one? I'm 42. I've got four kids.'"

A representative of Beckham also reached out to Mail Online saying that she was "clearly joking" and that there are "plenty of cover shoots under discussion for the future, Vogue and othewise."

Victoria Beckham has graced the cover of several international editions of Vogue. She has been on the cover of British Vogue three times and her most recent one was for Vogue China, Mail Online reported.

The Vogue China shoot was criticized for Photoshopping Beckham's thigh gap. However, a representative of Beckham and also the editor-in-chief of Vogue China, Angelica Cheung, have both denied the accusation.


According to their statements, the alleged Photoshop scandal was merely an optical illusion caused by Beckham's underwear.

The picture features Victoria Beckham tiptoeing while hugging her left leg. The pose then exposes her underwear in a strange angle that was open to a lot of interpretation. Some claimed that the white underwear simply blended with the background while others accused the fashion designer of faking the image.

Cheung defended Beckham and said, "The reason why we didn't even look at this detail was because it wasn't on our mind to look for details to post-produce." She added, "If we had had that kind of mindset, we would probably have asked the photographer to address it with Photoshop."

She did concede a little bit by saying, "Now I look at it, I can understand why people would think about it like that. There is a bit of a gap in there."

David and Victoria Beckham have an estimated combined worth of over £500 million, Mail Online reported. Victoria Beckham's fashion label, despite reporting a net loss, still recorded £1.4 million pre-tax profit after David Beckham pumped in £5.2 million.
