Just a few weeks ago, after picking up someone else’s lousy reporting, which claimed Victoria Beckham was expecting, Perez Hilton wrote, “We hope it’s true.”

Had Perez just done a few minutes of fact-checking, he would’ve known that Beckham was NOT pregnant before further spreading the false report.

But if Perez is one thing, it’s consistent – consistently lazy and wrong.

Again today, he picked up another outlet’s questionable story, with the similarly lame refrain of “we hope this isn’t true!”

This time the subject is Beckham’s fellow Spice Girls member, Mel B, whose marriage may be “on the rocks,” according to Perez.

Basing his post on a Daily Mirror report, the bad blogger declares, “It seems Mel B and Stephen Belafonte are headed for divorce.”

And after providing little evidence for that, Hilton wonders about its accuracy - ”Is this the (sic) British press making up a story???” – before concluding, “We hope this isn’t true!”

Well, Gossip Cop did what Perez finds unthinkable – uh, we fact-checked – and a rep for the singer tells us ”it’s all fine” between Mel B and her hubby.
