I stopped taking any notice when they gave a knighthood to lenny henry.

Just a nobody who can't stand hangers on.

I've never even seen her fashion stuff for sale, mind you I don't shop in Poundland*.

[QUOTE 4618558, member: 45"]It's a shameful scam. Honours for being a celebrity. There are thousands who do as much as or more than her but aren't fortunate enough to have got lucky in the celebrity lottery (or aren't interested in the shallow culture) so are invisible.[/QUOTE]

It appears Mrs Beckham has done quite a bit for aids and other UN-related charities.

No celebrity can win in this situation, if they publicise their work they are criticised for doing it just for the publicity, and if they don't publicise it, they are criticised for doing nothing.

I doubt many of us knew George Michael was a philanthropist until he died, but it appears he was a significant one having given away millions in various ways.

I don't think anyone should get an honour for doing their job and that includes celebs, sports people (including olympians), civil servants, leaders of industry etc et al. People who volunteer and give their own time whether it be for supporting youth activities, providing support for amateur sports or people like Marcia Shakespeare for her work on gun control, who was given an MBE, should be recognised and supported, IMO.
