Black Text = Scotland Fans (from Daily Record)
Blue Text = Victoria Beckham
SHE was in the most successful girl band of all time, is married to the UK's
most famous footballer and is now building her solo career.
But Victoria Beckham, who has just released her second solo single, A Mind
Of Its Own, has taken time out of her busy schedule to answer questions from
her Scots fans.
We asked Daily Record readers to send us their questions for the pop
princess. And here are the answers from Victoria, who plays her first
Scottish solo gig in Edinburgh tomorrow.
Q DO you have plans to do a bigger show anywhere in Scotland? Your Scottish
fans are desperate to see you perform. - Lynn, Glasgow.
A I WOULD love to do a bigger tour, but at the moment people people don't
really know my music. This is only my second single. When people are more
familiar with my solo material, then I will do a bigger tour. Hopefully,
next year.
Q WILL you be singing live at the Forth FM show? How do you feel about being
criticised for miming? - Susan, Dumbarton.
A I WILL be singing live. I love doing it and A Mind Of Its Own gives me the
chance as I don't have a big dance routine like with Innocent Girl. That was
pretty full-on with wigs and backing dancers. Sunday will be like a little
unplugged show.
Q THERE have been rumours the Spice Girls could tour again. It has been
stated both Melanie B and Emma have hinted it. In light of your recent
comments regarding the band's future, is it still possible for the group to
execute the touring decision? - Kfir, Jerusalem.
A MAYBE one day. At the moment we are all happy concentrating on our solo
careers and have no plans to work together. But who knows what the future
will hold?
Q THE style of your new video is very natural compared to Not Such An
Innocent Girl. Did you prefer dressing up or playing it straight? - Claire,
Falkirk.
AI LOVE fashion, but for this I wanted back to basics. That was the advice Elton John gave me.
Q ARE you are having a statue made of yourself, David and Brooklyn? -Liz,
Edinburgh.
A IT isn't true, like most stories you read about me in the papers. It's
usually the case that someone else is trying to use myself and David to
promote their products - for example, the sculptor.
Q WILL Brooklyn be a pop star or a footballer? Is he talking yet and since
you're pop royalty, will you be sending him to Gordonstoun like Prince
Charles? - Joanna, Edinburgh.
A HE will probably be a footballer with rhythm. He won't be going to
Gordonstoun. It's a bit too far away from home for my liking.
Q HAS David got a record deal and can he sing? Does he sing in the shower?-
Liam, Glasgow.
A NO, no - and no.
Q I'VE heard a rumour David is making a record. Would you consider a duet,
Kylie and Jason style? - Mharie,Glasgow.
A NO.
Q IS it difficult trying to have a solo career after being so successful
with the Spice Girls? - Lindsey, Helensburgh.
A IT is hard because the Spice Girls were so successful and we sold more
than 40 million albums. If I am not successful with this album, then maybe
the next one. I love music and will always keep on recording.
Q I READ you keep a diary and you use it to write some of your songs. How
much of you is in the songs and is it hard to sing about personal things? -
Keith, Perth.
A I WROTE most of the songs on the album myself and there is something
personal in each of them. I think that this is the same for a lot of the
best songwriters. It is easier writing about feelings I have experienced
than just making up stories.
Q I LOVED your album, but it seemed the critics took great delight in
ripping it to bits. If the music ends, what would you do? - Eileen, North
Berwick.
A I HAVE already started working on ideas for my next album. I will make
music until I decide to stop.
Q IS charity work important to you and how do you decide which ones to
support? - Charlotte Edinburgh.
A CHARITY work is very important to me. I am fortunate in that I have pretty
much everything I want in life - David, Brooklyn and my family. Shows like
this give me the chance to give something back. I feel very passionate about
children's charities, being a mum myself.
Q ANY comment about Tamzin Outhwaite or Footballers' Wives? - Mark,
Arbroath.
A NO.
