Rebecca Loos worked briefly as David Beckham’s assistant, allegedly had an affair with him, and has been milking the publicity ever since. She gave tons of interviews and got in touch with her inner Alli Sims when she released a single called “Your Boyfriend” that she claimed wasn’t about the Beckhams. Now, the surprise isn’t that she’s writing a tell-all book, it’s that it took her so long to do it. After all, she was David’s PA almost six years ago. Since then, she’s become a British reality show fixture, appearing on such esteemed programs as Celebrity Love Island and Extreme Celebrity Detox, and poses topless for lad magazines.
I first “met” Renee Gauthier when she was Victoria Beckham’s assistant – their cute, agreeable relationship was part of the reason Posh’s Coming to America special was so funny. (Like this scene where they tried to bake a pie together.) Now, Renee has left the celebrity assistant life behind her and is working as a comedienne, and in this segment she talks about what it was like getting to meet celebrities like Eva Longoria and Kelly Clarkson when she was a PA. Enjoy:
There are certain times I’m really glad the site was around a couple of years ago, and here’s one reason: Rebecca Loos. If you’re lucky enough not to know who she is, we’ll fill you in. She was the assistant to one Mr. David Beckham, whose wife Posh Spice “Victoria” Beckham is one of STA’s favorite pointless celebrities. Anyhow, allegations of an affair (complete with steamy text messaging) between Rebecca and Becks almost split up the Beckham marriage. Now Rebecca’s showing her true love–for fame–by releasing a pop single. The song, “Your Boyfriend” is about a woman waiting for a guy to get out of his relationship and get with her. But she swears it’s not about the Beckhams. Riiiiight. Because they’re not the only reason she’s famous or anything.
For the record, when Posh is asked about Rebecca in interviews, she usually refuses to discuss the matter, claiming she doesn’t like to focus on the negative.
