Posh ‘shrinks to the size of a seven-year-old’

Posh may have gone a little too far in maintaining her svelte figure.

London: Victoria Beckham may have gone a little too far in maintaining her svelte figure for her stint in American Idol, fitness experts believe. The former Spice Girl is apparently on a detox diet and has dropped to a UK size 4 but a personal trainer feels it could be dangerous.

“It’s shocking, Victoria is the size of a seven-year-old girl. She’s started exercising, but she obviously hasn’t increased her food to compensate for the calories she’s burning,” the Daily Star quoted Nicki Waterman, personal trainer as saying. She said: “No-one should be that thin. She needs to start eating a balanced diet straight away.” Also, nutritionist Juliette Kellow added: “Young girls aspire to look like Victoria but she’s smaller than most of them. “She looks like she’s probably starving herself to be like that.” However, the stunner’s nutritionist Monica Grenfell believes that her client has always had a small frame, she said: “Victoria has always been a teeny little thing. “Whenever we chat, she always asks what she should and shouldn’t be eating – she’s strict with herself, that’s all.” Meanwhile, an insider on the American Idol set branded her performance “wooden” and “icy”.
