As our groundbreaking social essay proved yesterday, Posh Spice wants the gays. Well, she's one step closer today! Gays love theatre, right? Especially musical theatre. So it's quite a coup that the pouty pop singer also known as Victoria Beckham has had her name swapped in for Britney Spears's in an hilarious bit of lyric from "Diva's Lament", a song from Spamalot, the Monty Python Broadway smash hit singing sensation. She's one step away from being mentioned in a Mark Russell ditty! Then she'll have The Olds, too! Oh, and why did they take Britney's name out? "Because we don't laugh at sad people," says show creator Eric Idle. Aww/Ouch. [AP] After the jump, see how the lyrics changed, plus watch a geigh guy lip sync the original.

"I am sick of my career
Always stuck in second gear
Up to here with frustration and with fears
I've no Grammy no rewards
I've no Tony Awards
I'm constantly replaced by Britney Spears
Britney Spears!"

Has been replaced by:

"My love life is a mess
I've got constant PMS
My career is about as hot as ice
They hate me there backstage
They say I'm too old for my age
They're trying to replace me with Posh Spice
With Posh Spice!!"
