I feel people has misinterpret her completely, she seems as an awesome person which just enjoys doing her thing.

[@Tadzio5050]

Well part of it is sexism and the other part is her own fault. She's rather cultivated this image of distance and a slight superiority. I would put myself into the camp that seem to get her wrong. I will now reconsider.

[@LadyLucija]

Tadzio5050 I would dare to say that those who feel her as superior are in fact in a way angry because she isn't offering her private life on a platter for everyone to see and pick at and they probably think she owes them that. I believe she feels her brand is about her clothes instead of her life and how she works, so she lets those things speak for her. I respect her for that.

[@reginakile3395]

She's just not mean but she's not nice either.

[@LadyLucija]

Regina Kile you know her personally, right?

[@reginakile3395]

Just as well as you do, it's a comment/opinion, on the above video, just like yours. But with a different opinion.

[@jengable4888]

It is refreshing to see such a humble, down to Earth, yet independent mother.

[@faune]

She's very classy and determined to her work. I started to think that she really is a different person compare to the reflection of her by the media or tabloid. Also I really love her accent.

[@TriniRoyQuiReyes]

Yeah she is ok

[@dajuancao9058]

Who said she never smiles? She smiled a lot here in this video. Luv it!

[@jachete1000]

+Ada Cao in another video by vogue something like 70 question she said "I smile inside and I have a duty for fashion"

[@loveharrydaily]

She does smile a lot actually, she just doesn't smile in photos.

[@manz007]

watch ali g interview victoria and david beckham video (and you wont say she doesnt smile)

[@manz007]

I love her upper lips . inner

[@audyw4411]

cao yo mama

[@avidian888]

I love the quality of these videos, they are just amazing. Thank you NYT.

[@jachete1000]

+Arvid Shirasb these videos are so poetically amazing.

[@Layla-bi4ze]

People always judge Victoria by her appearance and by the fact that she rarely smiles but it doesn't make her an awful person. She's just truly determined and takes her job, her brand seriously, after all, she's a leader she's responsible for a lot of people, she has to make hard decisions, etc. Besides, I hate when people say that she's been spending David's money and so on... Why would she even need his money when she was the member of the best-selling girl group of all time? The Spice Girls' first album, Spice had been released before SHE EVEN MET DAVID and it was a huge worldwide succes. Number one, multi-platinum and the best-selling album in music history by a girl group.The girls had three albums, tours and movies... I don't think that after such a huge success she would have needed any kind of financial help! For me she seems very down-to-earth, I respect her and David because they try to bring up their children properly and stick together and live a normal-ish life. :)

[@hayaglamazonluxe]

+Lilla Smith This. Victoria's dad was also a successful business man. She's had money her whole life.

[@KK-es3cf]

Ok....I can hear you....just calm down all right? Lol

[@gracesthill8175]

+K Tibaijuka doesn't mean she didn't work hard for her own money. Her siblings are definitely not on her yearly salary.

[@MrGremoful]

And you forgot to add that her brand has been a huge success as well.

[@Holly888Gan]

Jeuolosy

[@erinmarie27]

Very well edited. I love Victoria, so classy, sophisticated, talented and at the core family oriented.

[@suhgy]

I won't be afraid of getting old if I could be a woman like her. She's strong, beautiful and elegant, living the perfect life.

[@MiguelAlves1]

Im a big spice girls fan and one that always pushed for another reunion. However watching this makes it very easy to understand why she doesnt want to get back to the band. I wouldnt either. She completely went to become an icon on her own, detached herself completely from her pop star days and is happy doing her own (succesful) thing. Its nice to see her doing so good and being so well respected for her hard work in the fashion world. Much respect to VB

[@ReshmaJoly]

I really admire her. So much of passion and honesty in her work.

[@palmbeach46]

she' s amazing woman, i really really like her :) She's classy, ellegant & fun at the same time :)

[@FindAndSteal]

What a great insight into Victoria's studio, this is the kind of content I can watch 24/7. Keep it coming!

[@pinksherbetsummer]

Love the intro about her having a proper job. I'm glad she found her calling, and it wasn't just about David!

[@bensiagel]

She's actually so subtly funny! I always enjoy watching her interviews

[@lem.5186]

I’ve found a new appreciation for VB. She is beautiful, talented and professional. I love that she has a wonderful sense of humor. 😀💯🤎🤎🤎🤎

[@elmasahmanovic9207]

Wonderful woman, who is misunderstood, in large part also because she puts public at arms lenght. Nothign wrong witht that, her choice. But how nice to see the human being behind the image, and my god she has aged well. Lines around her eyes, skin texture, refreshing to see. And she seriously has 4 kids? Whoa!

[@angelsrosena]

sure, all these people that make her work more to be able to pay them all, but that doesn't mean that she ignores her children.

[@karimsarssor13]

plus she has clearly had plastic surgery

[@theartsyzoologist]

@@karimsarssor13 What has she had done? She looks her age just good genetics and looks after herself. Her nose still looks the same, she has subtle wrinkles, her lips aren’t botoxed to bits and her brows aren’t all the way up near her hair line. The only difference is she doesn’t have her more filled out younger face, instead a more matured hollowed look but elegant, sophisticated, timeless and chic.

[@anulkaaw]

She evolved so much. So much better with age. Their family is amazing. Staying strong despite the industry is quite an accomplishment and a testimony to their values and the work they must have put into that.

[@m3lisha]

Gosh I adore Victoria!

[@Carducci1959]

m3lisha Hope you get over it

[@m3lisha]

Aneeta TV Mate why don't you look in the mirror before getting off that high horse you're on.

[@michellerios8030]

Victoria is an example of a successful woman tbh I love her. She's everything I want to be literally goals

[@thefamousjess]

As soon as she did the DVF impression i liked her 100x better than i already did

[@emilyhancock3456]

Her clothes are so gorgeous :)

[@njo2994]

When they do the close ups of her face, to me she looks completely natural. If she has had any work done she had an amazing surgeon. She looks great. And those brown eyes!

[@deerheart87]

She's def had work done

[@SirenaIrena]

Very pleasant voice, and a manner of speaking

[@cinnabonmadness]

She's so classy!

[@anitasseo]

cinnabonmadness Please, read the above...

[@user34274]

This video was edited really well.

[@chowes41]

"I am a great mom, but I go to work. End of." My quote of the day.

[@MrPopaganda]

I cannot stop listening to her voice ... it's so soothing!!!

[@Metalcomedienne]

She hasn't aged a day. Love VB.

[@TriniRoyQuiReyes]

Exactly she looks chic and classy ,Of course that'svwhy she is the posh spice.

[@Modelqaibottle]

the loveliness is in the details, so special!

[@Enidlaria]

I've always been a fan of posh! Such a wonderful human being.(^_^)

[@moniquewebster-wright4495]

I like when Victoria says she asked diane von furstenburg if she felt guilty going to work and having kids and she says never! loove that cause i have often felt guilty.

[@deckdollylondon5942]

I LOVE HER. VICTORIA IS SO FLAWLESS. AN AMAZING HUMAN BEING. IF I HAD A SISTER I WISH MY SISTER WAS JUST LIKE HER. BEAUTIFUL.

[@lochboy766]

I admire her very much. well done Victoria !!

[@angelsrosena]

[@esotericed8736]

I have no idea why, and I'm the last person I expect this from.. But I strangely adore Victoria Beckham!.

[@edrodriguez4822]

[@levieenrose7646]

Anyone who thinks that Vicki actually designs the overpriced crap she sells is completely deluded!

[@m.taylor]

She is not the talent...she just knows how to hire the right people.

[@chelseacox4004]

20/20 and only now have I realized Victoria Beckham is my all time favourite celebrity, as I kid the British press made us misunderstand her, now I'm older and I truly don't want to smile when I have my shades on😁.

[@LauraNatera]

Didn't remember her loooong hair😍

[@angeladallimore8079]

Respects Victoria.

[@GG_Booboo]

It's nice to see this side of her, a celebrity designer who actually works, and is hands on, not like the Kartrashians who just have a name on their brands...
