Glum: Posh could barely muster a smile after performing in Canada last night

Perhaps she could see the pound signs dropping away as she sang.

Or it could have been the rumours of backstage tensions which are being blamed for the Spice Girls scrapping the rest of their world tour.

Either way Victoria Beckham looked particularly glum as the band took to the stage in Canada last weekend in their first concert since announcing their upcoming split.

While Baby, Ginger, Sporty and Scary pranced and preened on stage with abandon, Posh Spice scowled more than usual and struggled to crack a smile even at the curtain call.


It could have been her feet which were causing her such misery - for squeezed into a skyscraper pair of strappy sandals, her painful bunions were clearly on display.

The condition is caused by wearing ill-fitting shoes - and Mrs Beckham last year admitted her love of stilettos had given her “disgusting” feet.

She said before moving to LA: “I hate my feet. They are the most disgusting thing about me.

“Part of the reason I wear such amazing shoes is to take the eye away from my horrid feet and onto the stunning shoes.”
