Eva Longoria And Victoria Beckham Have Wine For Dinner

This is a silly little news/gossip item that I thought you all might enjoy.
Ever wonder what really famous, super-skinny women in their 30’s eat when they dine out together?
You are about to find out…
Eva Longoria and Victoria Beckham recently had dinner at the Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood.
Helpfully, The Daily Mail is reporting that both women sat and sipped white wine throughout the meal, but barely touched their food at all. Eva didn’t eat anything, and Victoria only “nibbled”.
“They had bruschetta and an artichoke dip on the table, but I never saw Eva eat a thing,” said one eyewitness. Victoria reportedly “nibbled”, but only a little.
IF this is true, would anybody really be surprised? I mean, both women are tiny.
The article mentioned above goes on to suggest that Victoria Beckham’s friends are all slimming down to skeletal proportions… something that was already brought up a couple months ago.
Eva looks lovely in this picture. Well, it’s too bad that they published that neither woman ate much of anything, not a very good example for anyone to follow.
second!
I mean seriously how do they breathe, have that lovely hair, skin etc if they dont eat? Probably they just dont in public….
Nope. I don’t care.
so get drunk, instead of eating? that’s what they’re suggetsing here? wtf?
stupid article.
Makes sense. Both of them are seriously thin.
So sad but I believe it.
they probably stick to salad, salmon and grilled chicken. that stuff makes you skinny.
Firstly, I don’t trust that photo. It’s most likely ’shopped.
Secondly, I probably wouldn’t eat much of those entrees either. I would nibble on some of the bruschetta, as it’s fairly healthy. But I wouldn’t touch the artichoke dip, as it’s junk food. Also, I would have ordered red wine, not white. Red wine is better for the heart.
I eat very healthy, so I’m picky.
well i think eva is naturally skinny, but victoria not so much…my uncle met eva and said that she looks like a little girl in person, but not anorexic, just really petite.
If i were them i wouldnt want to eat in puplic either! who lieks pictures of them taken when they are shoveling food in their mouths? lol
This is just beyond pathetic.
you realize that it’s possible they were out for a glass of wine together and the food was given to them to nibble… it’s possible they didn’t even order it and it was on the house….
obviously they weren’t have DINNER they just ordered appetizers and drinks. it’s like reporting that some dudes at a bar ate “peanuts for dinner” while drinking beers
I couldn’t care less if you literally paid me to do so.
Gee, big surprise, Joelle. Yet again you’re telling the world that you eat “healthy” and that the food mentioned in the post is “junk”. We get it. You’re better than everyone else.
Honestly, I agree with the above: I would not be caught dead eating being next to those two! LOL
Regerdless they’re gorgeous…
About JOELLE, Be proud that you’re eating healthy! I support you fully!! Don’t let anyone tell you that they’ve had enough of hearing it. At least you have will power. YOU ROCK!!
hahaha i agree with Give It a Rest , comment on the celebrities only noone cares what you do or eat
Well, if one ate then they would look like a fatass compaired to the other. They’re both are built like broomsticks, whose honestly suprised that they don’t eat?
I don’t get it…if these girls are naturally skinny. Why the heck cant they just pig out? It makes me feel so guilty for just consuming a slice of pumpkin pie. Better go workout now!
Well, if you don’t care about it, then why are you posting on the topic? Sounds a bit hypocritical to me.
Joelle, eating healthy is always good. You just gave a few pointers to some people who didn’t know about say…artichoke dip (mainly, me.)
Eva is thin and petite. Normal for her, but I’m worried Victoria is anorexic. She was much heavier in her Spice Girls days. Victoria Beckham and Jaslene from America’s Next Top Model are the two skinnest human beings I have ever seen (up close) and it is disgusting. They need help
Well given that both Eva and Victoria are in their 30’s, how else can they keep themselves in shape? Metabolism slows down at that age and more exercise and less food is the answer to looking great.
I wouldn’t say Eva is aneroxic, she looks fine. But Victoria on the other hand might be and is a bad influence to everyone around her.
what’s wrong with having a bit of wine for dinner? i am glad they had no whiskey
Joelle: Oh yeah? Well I would have only nibbled the parsley garnish and ordered purified water from the Swiss Alps. I also would have been performing leg exercises under the table during dinner. BEAT THAT.
If these two ever decide to eat normally, they are going to puff up like blowfish. Their metabolisms must be moving at a slow crawl with the little amount they eat. I wonder if they ever fantasize about having full meal, not just a mouthful of lettuce, three grapes, and a strawberry?
Well, well aren’t you so fantastic joelle?
Artichokes are actually really good for you, and if eva longoria and victoria beckham are eating it at a restaurant I would say it would more than likely be made from scratch and not from a supermarket.
Just thought I’d put my bit in!
I can’t eat in front of people.
If I was being photographed I could definitely not eat! I passed out at a wedding reception once b/c I stood up in the wedding and I didn’t eat all day b/c people kept snapping pics at dinner and staring at the head table.
No wonder celebs are so skinny.
Oh, and artichoke dip is definitely junk food. Cheesy, oily, get-fat-quick junk food.
Mmmmmm, would go quite nicely with that red wine you mentioned Joelle.
Keep up the healthy diet
They could both stand to eat my hot dog!
Um, is it just me or does it sound more like they were out for drinks…like happy hour or something. They just had wine and all the food at the table was just 2 appitizers to share. Thats not dinner, thats drinks and snacks….also, bruchetta is delicious, but is like 85% bread. Dip implies more bread or chips…again just empty carbs.
Jules - artichokes are great for you, but artichoke dip is like 3/4 melted cheese 1/4 veggies.
As I said, I’m sure that if eva and posh are eating there and they ordered it, it would have been made from scratch. I make my own artichoke dip and i dont put that much crap in it. My artichoke dip is 3/4 veg (artichoke and a tiny bit of eggplant) a drizzle of olive oil and a tiny bit of cheese for a bit of extra flavour. I’m studying to be a naturopath and a nutritionist…. i dont claim to know everything like joelle but if your restaurants in america are serving up supermarket dip then you should come to Oz and dine with us!
Sounds about right to me.
I’ve sat near victoria at a restaurant in London - she didn’t eat a thing. It’s all very bizarre as her whole social life seems to revolve around going to restaurants and yet she never eats anything. when I saw her she just chain smoked throughout the meal - although the smoking laws have now changed here and she wouldn’t be able to do that now.
What a miserable way to live.
lets be honest here, these two ladies were trying to get drunk , not eat dinner! lol
clearly they were only there for drinks.
I would be surprised if they don’t eat properly - they have shiny hair and nice skin, so they’re getting the right nutrients, and while they are both very small they are not emaciated. I’m a comparable size, and I eat a fully adequate diet.
Julz - I fully agree, delicious vege dips don’t have to be laden with cheese! but then I’m a snobby cook, and a kiwi, maybe we just have a different approach to food down here…
Meg, you are responsible for my first laugh of the day. Thank you!
well,
i think Victoria is not to blame.
Is Evas fault (sp?) if she wants to be like Vicky.
cheers pinot fino!
joelle has not a single clue of healthy eating and good public behaviour. brushettas are made with olive oil, fresh tomatos and herbs which is proved to be very healthy (see all the mediterrian diets).artichoke is rich in omega-3 which naturally reduces your cholesterian. red wine is a no-no for hors d’oeuvres, especially not for a legumes entree.
so much for healthy eating.
Susan, you realize that not all anorexics look emaciated. Most only reach that point after most of the physical and psychological damage has been done. It’s not somthing you can always judge by looks.
they don’t have lovely hair or skin- its makeup and digital retouching (airbrushing) - google digital retouching and celebrities or airbrushing and celebrities and c the extent that they change appearances thru that
victoria doesn’t smoke,so you can’t have seen her ‘chain smoking’.to be honest the woman may well be a functioning anorexic,but she’s never going to admit to it,and when damn fools lke longoria and holmes run after her puppies,why would she admit to having any kind of problem?
Skeletor (VB) has absolutely terrible skin! Acne and breakouts.
Everyone seems to forget that Eva used to be bigger. Not much bigger but bigger and now she is too tiny. Same goes for Victoria.
the problem with Joelle is she’s NOT encouraging healthy eating, she’s encouraging severe limitation. Trust me, Joelle, when you get over the eating disorder and realize what you’ve been doing for the past however many years, that proud feeling that comes with restricting your eating disappears because your body will have no metabolism, and you’ll most likelyl pack on about 30 pounds while not having a clue where it came from.
I love Victoria Beckham… I hope she doesn’t have an eating disorder because she seems like a sweetheart!!
Eva on the other hand is a cow, and I hope she gets pregnant and explodes
that pic is SO photoshopped - all the veiny and bony parts are gone… even though hers aren’t that obvious compared to some, but I still think making extreme thinness appear cute and smooth like this is wrong.
Also, it’s a “holier than thou” thing with Joelle. I have no problem with “healthy eating” — in fact, please allow me to toot my own enormous horn here and wave from the sunroof of an imaginary limousine through a crowded parade to brag that I’m vegan and 43 and fabulous (all true! oh, all so true true true!) — it’s just that SO many people who do eat “healthy” act like it’s a terrible, shameful, sin-riddled CRIME if someone else eats something they consider crap. Even though I eat very “clean” most of the time, I do indulge in garbage from time to time just because it’s FUN and who the hell cares? If for six days a week you are “good” (and, really, I can’t stand when people actually use that word to describe it), then on the seventh day, you can (oh, you have my permission, people! MY permission!) eat whatever the hoohah you want — just as long as it’s not the french fries on MY plate, because I will not hesitate to stab your hand with my fork.
Oh, and since this is a post about Eva and Victoria, let me just say that I don’t think either of them is too skinny.
ALSO, Julz, your artichoke dip sounds fantastic. Can I make it without cheese?
All right. Carry on!
Is it me or are the comments getting a little “catty” these days. For cripes sakes people!! Lighten up!!
You know what is more annoying than the people that come on here and talk about themselves?? The people who have something to say about it, day after day after day. Get over it. Talking about yourself is a way to relate to the story given. It’s human - it’s normal and my god, I think if you don’t care for it, be an adult and IGNORE IT!!
It is blatantly obvious that they were out for DRINKS not dinner..it which case it’s perfectly normal to not eat. They probably had a meal before they left for the restaurant.
Meg..your post made me laugh
causethisiswhyimhot..VB does smoke
Sorry if you thought I was being catty, Karma, but I’ve gotten fed up with people who come on here to toot their own overblown horns on a regular tedious basis. And in case you couldn’t tell, my own comment, just above, was written with tongue planted firmly in cheek.
I agree with what’s being said here. If you want to eat something you find delicious every once in a while that isn’t mashed greens with organic grains plucked by buddhist monks and blessed by the dalai lama…um…it’s probably okay.
Personally, if I was having drinks and snacks at the Chateau Marmont, I would probably expect the artichoke dip to not be made with Kraft singles, bottled artichoke hearts and Philadelphia cream cheese, so I would disagree with Joelle and say that the plate in front of these paparazzi-loving ladies was probably not “crap”.
The bottom line, kids, is food is good. Food is really, really good. All kinds of food can be good. French fries are good. Things blessed by the dalai lama are good. Even wine for dinner is good.
None of those things are good ALL the time.
Also, Victoria Beckham makes me nauseous. Mostly because she sleeps with David B. And I do not.
No way Jodi- I was NOT talking about you. I guess things around here seem different lately. It’s almost not fun anymore. Everyone has become so negative!!
I would never call YOU catty!! You’re my fav!!
Karma, I’m grinning like a big f*cking idiot right now. Hugz *und* kissez to you.
I agree with you, though, that the tone around here lately has been reeeeeally hostile. I mean, sh*t, this is worse than some offices I’ve worked in where the girls were just so … well, never mind. You know how that goes, I’m sure.
Hey, girls. There’s cake in the kitchen at 3:00!
(Yes, I said CAKE. Big, luscious, carb-full CAKE! And no, it’s not pretending to be healthy/good-for-you by being of the CARROT variety. It’s enormous, it’s chocolate, and the frosting is so thick and creamy that you’ll want to weep just looking at it.)
BLAH BLAH BLAH
ITS OBVIOUS BOTH THESE WOMEN HAVE LOST WEIGHT………..
SECONDLY ITS OBVIOUS THAT THEY ARE BOTH TINY WOMEN….SO ANY GAIN OR LOSS TO THEIR WEIGHT WOULD BE VERY APPARANT……
BUT IT SHOULD BE THIRDLY OBVIOUS THAT THEY ARE NOT EATING THE WAY THEY SHOULD……VB’S DIET WAS PUBLISHED…..AND SHE IS ALWAYS SEEN OUT DINING ….BUT NOT EATING.
THERE ARE SEVERAL INSTANCES WITH E.L. DOIN THE SAME THING…..OUT DINING……WITHOUT ACTUALLY EATING….
NOW IF THESE WOMEN COUNT CALORIES AS MUCH AS THEY SAY THEY DO;……IT MAKES SENSE WHY THEY DRANK THE WINE AND DIDNT EAT….
IF THEY CAN ONLY HAVE A CERTAIN AMOUNT THAT DAY…AND THEY WANTED A DRINK….THEY CANT EAT………
I AM NOT CONDONING THIS BEHAVIOR…BUT THEY ARE PICKY ENOUGH WHERE IT SEEMS PLAUSIBLE….IT ALSO SEEMS PLAUSIBLE THAT IT WAS JUST HAPPY HOUR FOOD ……..OR MAYBE IT WAS JUST FOR SHOW……
AND I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO POINT OUT….TO THE PEOPLE COMMENTING AGAINST JOELLE…..
ARTICHOKE DIP IS NOT A SMART CHOICE.
SHE IS RIGHT….
IT IS VERY FATTENING….I WOULD NOT ORDER IT……
NOW YOU PEOPLE MAY BE THESE WONDERFULLY HEALTH CONCIOUS “COOKS” AND KEEP IN MIND THAT YOU DONT WANT YOUR FOOD FATTY…
WELL IN THE REAL WORLD…IN MOST RESTAURANTS……….THEY WANT THEIR FOOD TO TASTE A CERTAIN WAY..SO THEY ADD OILS AND FATS AND SALT TO THEM TO MAKE THEM BETTER…..
REMEMBER THE POPULATION WE ARE SPEAKING OF………THERE ARE A HANDFUL THAT ARE EXTREMELY HEALTH CONCIOUS……LIKE ALL OF YOU BRILLIANT PEOPLE.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.
STOP BEING SO ANGRY WITH EACH OTHER..ITS JUST COMMENT SECTION TO SOMEONE ELSE’S PICTURE….
WHY ARE YOU FIGHTING?
Edan, can you see me standily ovating you right now? I mean, seriously. Look really hard toward Manhattan, by the Hudson River, and you’ll see me doing it. Bravo!
If i was constantly under a microscope i dont think i would eat in public either. just because celebs decide to skip out on snacking at a wine filled dinner doesnt mean they have an eating disorder.
yes they are thin, maybe alittle too thin for some of us, but victoria eats…she has to keep up her image of the celeb that doesnt eat (which i dont agree with) but understand. it how these gossip mags and photogs keep making money.
*squints* Lookie, lookie, I see Jodi! Ovating me.
P.S. I like your minicure. You’re a funny kid.
Grazie, Edan! I ain’t no kid though, kiddo.
WHAT is wrong with you people?
SERIOUSLY.
YOU ARE SOOOOOOO COMBATIVE WITH EACH OTHER……
I couldn’t live that way!!!
MISERABLE…and for what…a stupid tv series…
oh well they have a right to be miserable if they want to…I’m gunna go eat breakfast….
I am the same age as Eva and it’s definately true that if you eat about 200-400 calorie meals 3 times a day and skip one every once in a while you could be about the size they are… I bet they do eat hardly anything. I would think this story is their normal day to day eating habits.
causethisiswhyimhot - Victoria IS a very heavy smoker and this is well known. She is careful not to be photographed smoking, that’s all.
And to the person that mentioned her shiny hair and skin - she actually has terrible skin and her shiny hair is mostly not hers.
I remember reading an article where Terri Hatcher said that Eva always ate anything she wanted while the rest of the housewives were envious of her ability to do so…. and seriously, just because you’re naturally thin doesn’t mean you’re going to stuff your face whenever you get the chance!! That’s WHY people are thin. VB, on the other hand, I think she puts a lot of time starving into her body.
Pshaw!
Detroit! Its sad that you would let something like that make you pass out at a wedding! Unless it was yours, you could have ruined it! its not that serious! Eat smaller amounts! And chew your food slowly! BUT EAT! Hopefully no one else thinks like you!:)
Oh dear god. If you can’t let anyone see you eat, then at least smuggle something nibbly into a napkin, scramble off to the nearest ladies room, and scarf it all down behind the closed doors of one of the stalls.
Well, of course they just drink alcohol. It’s easier to forget that you’re starving when you’re drunk.
I am surprised that they even drink alcohol - too many calories. I would think that they would pop pills to get buzzed.
victoria does not have nice skin in my opinion. i think eva is lovely the way she is, but i hope she doesn’t go down the same road as vicky. anyway, it does look like victoria has a problem to me, which is sad because she is really so beautiful. her and mel b were the most naturally beautiful girls in the spice girls. she could really benefit from gaining a few pounds and filling out a 1/2 or even a 3/4 pair of jeans! she would really be stunning, and still small!
And? So they had just wine… nothing wrong with it.
Rosa, I doubt they got drunk. They probably just sipped one glass of wine each… less calories that way.
Victoria has amazing style - that’s it
Eva wants to be just like Victoria, as does Kaite Holmes
But Victoria:
-is anorexic
-fake tan
-fake boobs (and she’s even denied this!)
-fake nails
-fake hair
-seriously no talent
-publicity whore
-loves the paps
I prefer to think they got sloppy drunk and then stumbled away from the table, teetering and/or tottering on their wobby high heels, and eventually fell on top of each other in a slobbering, flailing, blithering and/or blathering heap. But that’s just me — ever the optimist.
P.S. Yes, I meant “wobbly”, not “wobby”. Although “wobby” sounds about right, too.
Joelle, looks like you got bashed, but I do agree that restaurant style artichoke dip is probably not as healthy as homemade dip. If you make it yourself, you always have control of what goes in it.
As for Eva and VB well….who cares, I mean if they choose to eat small portions of food, then that is their choice, 10 years from now they’re the ones who will be staring right back at it in the mirror.
If you can’t eat in front of people, it is probably because you see eating as something base and gross. Like going to the toilet.
If that’s how you feel, you may require some assistance. Of the professional kind.
Eaters are beautiful!!
Hello! Lot of calories in wine too…if you’re going to be techy
Julz- post your recipe!!! every one I’ve ever seen for it calls for like a package of cream-cheese, shredded chedar…and crap like that,
this has become one bitchy little comment section. :/
nevermind. i think theres nothing wrong with expressing your healthy eating joelle. (: infact im with you bbz, sending a healthy msg instead of starve, and binge.
Yes, Julz, post it! And can it be adapted to a non-dairy version?
Jodi - love your post! That’s what ran through my mind also. Let’s face it - the combined weight of these two women is probably, what, 190 lbs? (Maybe my guess is too high!) If they each had a glass of wine, that’s enough to get them sh*&-faced!
maybe they had a big lunch, its a possibility.
i usually eat before i go out most times, so if i end up going to dinner, i may feel a little full and just nibble on bit of food, there’s no need to eat, if your not hungry.
and eva looks good, there’s no way anyone can have an eating disorder and still looks this great, unless there’s something in water she drinks.
its good lesson for other, to be in shape and be healthy, sometimes its good not to over indulge.
LOL Jodi!!!!! I bet Cossey is liking your visual of these two getting drunk, and dropping in a heap on eachother too! But he’s visualizing himself adding to the mix!
I don’t care…
Actually, a 6 ounce glass of wine has about 120 calories and isn’t as high carb as most people think (about 1.5- 3 grams per glass). So hey, perhaps they were on a “liquid diet” for the day…
Ahhh, yes, a tangled jangle of assorted limbs, punctuated with grappling hands and wine-tinged burps. Quite a sexxxy scenario into which our mildly crude Cossey would like to insert himself.
Cossey wants them on his liquid diet.
How am I doing, Cossey?
Maxx & Jodi…..I don’t even have to post anymore….you guys are doing it for me!!!! LOL
Has anyone noticed Eva has the BIGGEST TEETH?!! Like a beaver, no kidding — she should be chewing up her dinner with her long chompers!!! I think she is so over-rated!!!
Eva has stuffed animals in her home and wears fur!! As a dog lover, I ain’t down with no animal hater! Eva is eva-il!!!
you people are just the best

where are all my posts??? I am not a spammer!!!
Don’t feel bad, Fiona. I’ve had useful, thoughtful, relevant non-spammy comments deleted too. But it’s Rian’s site and she can delete/approve whatever she wants…
Fiona, your comment was really rude and that’s why I deleted it. Please read the FAQ if you have any questions about commenting.
there’s a surprise
“But I wouldn’t touch the artichoke dip, as it’s junk food.”
What!!?? artichoke dip is junk food. HA. I think junk food is deep fried KFC chicken wings, a double cheeseburger, chips with curry sauce on etc. Your comment is totally laughable.
There are more things in life than apperance. If people wont talk to someone or looks down on someone because they aren’t a certain weight, or look a certain way then they are not worth knowing. Furthermore if someone treats people a certain way based on what they look like then they lead a very sad and superficial life.
It’s mostly in the west of the world that are obsessed by what they look like, because they can. People in other countries such as the farm lands of China, the deserts of Africa and the forests of the Amazon are just glad when they get to eat, in order to survive and feed their families.
