Or do you think I'm taking that cover too literally?



The one meme question I always wished someone would ask me is: 'What celebrity annoys you the most?' because in contrast to most other meme questions, I know exactly what I would answer.

Victoria Beckham.

I dunno - the very sight of Victoria Beckham irks me. I think it's that self-important way she rushes around with that 'I'M SUCH A BIG CELEBRITY THAT I HAVE TO RUSH PAST YOU WITH THESE SUNGLASSES ON BECAUSE THE PAPARAZZI ARE ON MY ARSE,' look. Or the 'hip-thrust-out-with-perpetual-pout' look. Or because for a few years, not a week would go by when she and Daivid were not on the cover of frigging OK or HELLO, having their supertacky throned wedding and other trivialities hyped to the sixes. Like that ludicrous media circus surrounding their move to America. I mean - hello!! Has no one ever moved to another country before!? Ever!?

And now, just when you thought VB had exhausted her capacity for tackiness she gives us Victoria Beckham: THE BOOK. In which she teaches you how to shit - in Prada.

NEXT THING YOU KNOW SHE'LL BE DOING NAKED WEATHER REPORTS
... which incidentally is a very popular googlie around these, um, parts. We had more sun today although a bit more cloud cover than yesterday, and a definite chill in the air. The wind died down a bit though. In two days' time we have our Culture Night celebrations plus the Reykjavík Marathon [no I'm not going - don't bother asking] a.k.a. the Biggest Party of the Summer. For which we'd like to place our order of warm, sunny and no wind, please. Current temps 10°C [50F] and sunrise was at 5:20 am, sunset at 9:41 pm.
