I have no issue with Victoria’s explanation to her boys because it probably keeps them from being scared of the paps if she’s painting them in a light that they just want to take their picture because they’re handsome boys, not to scare or hurt them.

Oh wow, kids can be really perceptive, and Romeo is spot on with his imitation of the pap with that “angry command” to take pictures so maybe Victoria might want to re-think how she explains the reason for so many pictures being taken of them by strangers.

While I think Victoria is a lovely person and a great mother I cringe when I think that she would hope that she could pass all her wardrobe on to a daughter. I can only imagine the pressure that the girl would have to be Victoria’s size. She’s extremely slim, a lot more so than when she was originally with the Spice girls.

I’m not saying Victoria would directly put pressure on her but the “look at the hundreds of thousands of dollars in clothing that I inherited and don’t fit” mentality she might end up having.

I don’t think there is anything wrong with that because the kids are going to have pictures taken of them every time they go out so they should think of it as a more positive thing. I also think everybody would do it differently then they claim if they were in that position too!

I agree with Reba

That´s what I understood when I read it.

I interpreted her statement more as there will always be people(paps) who want to photograph others for some reason or another, it’s just a fact of life that they have to deal with, than that “because the boys are handsome they are photographed”.

I don’t think there’s a lot wrong with telling them that, if it helps them to make sense of the paparazzi then why not.

I think Romeo’s story is kinda sad, I feel bad for celeb kids, aside from all the cool things they get to have because of parents’ money.
And I’m not passing any judgment on Victoria’s explanation whatsoever, because I have no freaking clue how are you supposed to explains paps to kids!
I even know a handful of grownups that don’t get the interest in celebrities’ lives and are baffled by constant presence of paps!

ITA with Valerie…I think telling the boys that the paps are taking their picture because they are so handsome or so smart, could lead to problems. I think the boys are probably capable of understanding that all the attention they get is because of their parents jobs.

I think Victoria has a great attitude about fame, very healthy. It is refreshing to actually hear a celebrity admit that she has put herself in the situation to be followed by photographers. Isn’t that just part of the job of being a public figure? We all have parts of our jobs that we don’t like. . . That’s life! Good for Victoria and David!
