BBC Radio 1 host Jack Saunders expressed his disappointment as Victoria Beckham’s track, “Not Such as Innocent Girl,” failed to secure a spot on the Official Chart. This followed a social media campaign that arose after a public dispute between Victoria and her son, Brooklyn Beckham.
The campaign emerged in response to Brooklyn’s controversial Instagram post, where he criticized his mother’s behavior at his wedding with Nicola Peltz. The post lamented Victoria’s lack of a solo number one hit and called for her to top the charts as a way to humorously address the situation.
Although the song briefly claimed the number one spot on the iTunes chart earlier in the week, it did not make it onto the Official Chart as confirmed by Radio 1 DJ Jack during his show. Despite some online buzz, Jack dismissed the notion of Victoria Beckham’s track being a significant contender for the top spots in the official charts.
Jack playfully teased the significance of the iTunes chart, emphasizing that the Official Top 40 is the true measure of success in the music industry. He emphasized that Victoria Beckham’s position on the official chart is what truly matters in determining her success as an artist.
Brooklyn Beckham’s public remarks about his mother’s behavior at his wedding sparked social media mockery, with memes circulating online. However, sources close to David and Victoria Beckham have defended her actions, denying any inappropriate conduct during the event.
