Los Angeles: Singer businesswoman Victoria Beckham revealed some facts which created pressure at the time when she was about to begin her career. She unveils that there was a time when she was considered a “bit of a laughing stock".
While people were busy laughing at her she worked hard to build her career.
The 40-year-old pop star said that it was really difficult for her to prove herself in the fashion industry.
"For a long time there, I was a bit of a laughing stock. And while everybody was busy laughing, what was I doing? I was laying the foundation for what I have in place now," said Beckham.
Victoria said that she doesn’t have to rely on advertising.
“It's a double-edged sword really. The most valuable part of being famous is that you have a voice and people will listen. I mean I can get a lot of attention. I don't have to rely on advertising campaigns," added Beckham.
The model made her debut at New York Fashion Week in 2008 and said that it was a great stress on her at that time because everyone was underestimating her that she would fail.
"Everybody said, 'Well, it's never going to work because a celebrity can't make a line'. Everyone thought it was going to be rubbish (it took) the pressure off a little bit. I didn't go into this to prove anything to anybody other than myself," said Beckham.
Beckham expressed that she’s not a lover of celebrity life rather she likes to concentrate on her fashion career.
"I like to keep my head down, work hard, focus on what I'm doing business-wise. I like to try and control how much I'm seen. I don't want to go out and be photographed every day, you know," said she.
