Victoria Beckham was born Victoria Caroline Adams on 17 April 1974 in Harlow, Essex, England, to Jacqueline Doreen (Cannon), an insurance clerk and hairdresser, and Anthony William Adams, an electronics engineer. She does not like being called Vicky. Instead, call her Posh, which stands for the best of everything (an old luxury liner term, P.O.S.H. stood for "Port Out, Starboard Home"-- the best rooms). Growing up, she didn't like being driven to school in her father's Rolls Royce (they were very wealthy; later, as Posh, she would have an image of someone who revels in wealth). Victoria began as a dancer before eventually landing a spot as a member of Spice Girls. While in college, Victoria was briefly in another band. After completing the 3-year course at Lanie Arts, she answered an ad in "The Stage" magazine, which was looking for 5 girls who could sing and dance. Victoria was picked, history was about to be made. (Victoria had met: Emma who had been in a play with her when they were kids; Geri while auditioning for a role in Tank Girl (1995); Mel C. attended a rival school when they were 15; and Mel B. at the audition for the forming of the band.) The Spice Girls became fantastically successful, achieving international fame. The wildly popular Spice Girls performed at sold-out concerts, did tours, and of course the Spice World (1997) movie. Victoria married soccer player David Beckham. The couple has four children. Show less «

"He's got more personality than people think and he's very deep and spiritual. He always knows how to dress, that was part of his appeal originally. We've got matching dogs, matching watches, similar wardrobes, matchings Jags. I know it's tacky, but it makes me laugh." - on David Beckham. Show less «

I'm not materialistic. I believe in presents from the heart, like a drawing that a child does.

If you haven't got it, fake it! Too short? Wear big high heels, but do practice walking!

I have no intention of ever working with the (Spice) girls again.

[on fame] I cope because I have to, because it's just the way my life is. I'm hardened to it. I know how I'm perceived is not how I am, and that's what matters. When they say I'm too thin, I just think: you know what? I'm happy to be thin. I'm into fashion and I like to be able to wear whatever I like. It's my business, and if other people don't like it, that's their business. Show less «

If a bride could splurge on a single thing, it's the booze, because that's what guarantees more fun.
