Decidedly Grinch-like behaviour.
Today, it was announced that Victoria Beckham is to be awarded an OBE, Officer of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire FYI, for her services in charity and fashion.
Despite the fact that Victoria has had a hugely successful career, people are still suggesting she’s not worthy of this plaudit.
She rose to fame as a member of a hugely successful pop group, now shows her fashion designs at highly competitive New York Fashion Week twice a year and does a huge amount for charity through her role as a goodwill ambassador for UNAIDS.
This doesn’t qualify as reason enough for an OBE in some people’s opinions, as you can see below.

Unbelievable getting an OBE – totally undeserved, they'll give them to anybody nowadays.— Jackie Smith (@cherylcantsing) December 28, 2016
#joinin Someone please explain why Victoria Beckham deserves an OBE, and not just a good dinner or ten and a personality overhaul, madness.

Thankfully, others are of the opinion that VB is deserving of the award and similarly we say, more power to her.
Why r there so many haters about Victoria Beckham getting an OBE- She's a self made hard working mum. There's a lot she can be proud of.

Wait… what is it about Victoria Beckham (businesswoman, international pop star, UN ambassador) that makes her not deserving of an OBE?

It really saddens me to see all the hateful reactions to Victoria Beckham being awarded an OBE. Well deserved.

In fact to coin the Spice Girls catchphrase, girl power.
