Jakarta – Victoria Beckham has been known to the public for years through her cool image, especially when being chased by the paparazzi. David Beckham’s wife is often seen wearing sunglasses and showing an unsmiling facial expression, something that makes many people assume that she is an unfriendly figure. However, the 50-year-old former Spice Girls member and fashion designer revealed the reason behind her image. In fact, what is in front of the camera does not fully reflect his personality. “I think over the years, people have had a certain impression of me because of what they saw in paparazzi photos. Often I looked unhappy in photos,” Victoria told The Times.
As a public figure who is constantly under the media spotlight, Victoria is aware that the public’s perception of her is often based on moments caught on camera, not her direct interactions or personal life. Victoria’s stiff face without a smile in front of the media turns out to have a certain reason. “In the past, all people saw were serious and stiff faces on the red carpet, but behind that, I just felt nervous and lacked confidence,” she explained. As social media develops, Victoria feels grateful that the public can now see a more authentic side of herself. Thanks to platforms like Instagram, she can share personal moments that show that she is actually a fun and humorous person, far from the arrogant image that used to be attached to her. “Now, with social media, people can see who I really am,” she said. “It’s not that I want to prove that I’m different, but that’s who I am,” she added.
