Victoria Beckham is said to have turned down the chance to judge on American Idol as she is too busy with other projects.

Rumours abounded recently that Posh Spice was being considered ads a replacement for Dannii Minogue on UK talent show, X Factor, but Simon Fuller insists that this was not the case.

“We didn’t really think about her for the UK,” he said, speaking at the launch of The American Idol Experience at Disneyworld, Florida.

“It was more for here [America]. We toyed with the idea but she is just so busy with her fashion.”
