Like the Roman Empire, Mama's Family, and Britney Spears's boinkability, all good things must eventually end. And so we come to the end of one of the world's most cherished and heartwarming friendships: Katie Holmes and Victoria Beckham have uttered a mutual "screw that bitch" and broken off their shopping-centered coalition. And the world weeps.
Like all good break-ups, this one centers around someone implying that their companion is a fat cow. According to the UK's Daily Mail:
A close pal tells us Katie isn't best pleased after super-skinny Victoria suggested she shed a few more pounds before her big day. Posh, who has been plagued by rumours of eating disorders (which she strenuously denies), wants to help the actress get in tip-top shape for her nuptials.
We're told: "Victoria didn't mean any harm, she just wanted to help Katie look her best for her big day. She offered to share her diet secrets but Katie immediately got defensive, saying she didn't need any advice.
"Katie is really proud of the weight she's managed to lose since giving birth to Suri in April and she doesnít think she has to lose any more."
Victoria also recommended Katie take her man to a barber's to get his floppy mop chopped before 18 November, when the couple will marry at a secret location.
The pal went on: "Vic pointed out that Katie will have to live with his hair in the wedding photos for the rest of her life. She recommended Katie ask Tom to get a new, fashionable haircut like David."
We think it was simply confusion that caused Katie to back away from Posh. After a year and a half of "Yes, Tom, whatever you say, Tom," and "L. Ron is my co-pilot" Katie does not recognize thought processes and expression of opinions in the female sex, so naturally when Victoria managed to spit out something more complex than "Must buy shoes, must please husband" Katie freaked and fled.
And Katie wasted no time filling her mommy-friend void. Check her out with Brooke "I love Paxil" Shields at A Socialite's Life.
