THE GOSS With LEIGH PURVES, AMY WATTS and CHARLI MORGAN
WHO would expect Posh to be refused entry to a bar and then have to queue up for 40 minutes. . .even if it IS in Hollywood?
But that's what happened to Victoria Beckham, who should've been greeted with a red carpet at Los Angeles's Polo Lounge.
Imagine the mortification it caused the poor lamb. . .
There she is, thinking she's taking Tinseltown by storm and planning to move down the street from her best friends, the Cruises.
There's a rumoured Beverly Hills clothing deal on the table, a handful of TV offers and then boom! : 'Sorry, madam, we don't know who you are'.
And so it was that an ex-Spice Girl was turned away from a VIP lounge.
Posh, 32, was even forced to wait patiently on her unfeasibly high heels as a host of non-entities with bad facelifts traipsed past. . . for almost three quarters of an hour.
Our source explained: "The Polo Lounge was full and Victoria queued, very politely as it happened, then asked the doorman if she could go in.
"She was rumoured to be meeting a buyer from the hip Kitson boutique.
"The doorman said she'd have to leave or wait until the place emptied, but then Victoria pointed out that she'd been there before, 'with the Cruises'.
"The guy's face paled and he obviously remembered who she was.
It's a credit to her that she was polite and didn't pull the celebrity routine."
And we don't blame her. Vic, right, could become a cult designer if she works with Kitsons, which is so hot it has a VIP fast lane. And we know that Posh won't be queueing THERE. . .
