Ancestry

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Some websites cite her as a descendant of Karl Marx. Does this qualify her as being of part German descent? Or at least having German ancestry? http://metro.co.uk/2010/02/25/victoria-beckhams-communist-background-as-alien-ancestry-revealed-130128/ http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1041751/Poshs-proletariat-past-Victoria-Beckham-descended-Communist-comrade-Karl-Marx.html 74.32.24.180 (talk) 06:40, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: they don't say she was descended from Marx, but from the far less notable Carl Heinrich Pfaender. I doubt this is worth a mention. --Stfg (talk) 14:21, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oh okay. I wasn't expecting it to be mentioned I was just curious and this seemed like the place to ask. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.32.22.222 (talk) 00:15, 19 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The reason her 'ancestry' keeps coming up, in my opinion, is because of the first picture from 2010, less photogenic of her. It should be replaced. And a family picture that includes their two sons would be great, later in the article. — Charles Edwin Shipp (talk) 21:51, 29 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Then she could could be part Jewish, which would explain her complexion. 86.149.128.202 (talk) 00:52, 27 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

What you said doesn't make a lick of sense. You are a very foolish person. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.224.198.189 (talk) 07:49, 22 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Is she part indian or south-asian? 2A00:23C5:C13C:9F00:9CC2:F904:9D43:644A (talk) 14:21, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Artificial breasts?

No mention of her widely publicised "breast enhancements" (enhanced by the insertion of small silicone slabs). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.175.56.95 (talk) 18:17, 4 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Full Stop

"Full Stop" was not a promotional single. It was leaked onto the internet as part of the fan-titled "Open Your Eyes" album. A few radio stations played the song to generate buzz, but Victoria had no plans to return to music. EW mistakenly reported it as a comeback. Also, the rapper on the song is not Nas. He has not been identified. Entry removed from her discography, and EW article removed as a source - incorrect information.
