Love her or hate her, there’s no denying that Victoria Beckham is one of the most famous and recognisable faces in the world today. As Posh celebrates her 34th birthday we take a look at her life…
Born Victoria Caroline Adams and dubbed Posh Spice by the British tabloid press after her rise to pop stardom with The Spice girls, Victoria Beckham is also a pop solo artist, songwriter and dancer turned fashion designer, author, businesswoman, and occasional actress.
After sweeping the world with Spice Girl fever, the pop group disbanded and went their separate ways to pursue personal interests with varying degrees of success. Since, Beckham has dabbled as a pop solo artist, with four UK Top 10 singles and her first hit single, “Out of Your Mind” reaching number two in the UK Singles Chart – her highest chart entry to date.
Without a doubt though the vivacious and eye-catching star has found more success as a style icon, now one of the most photographed and recognised personalities on the planet. With this label of style icon under her miniscule belt, Victoria has walked the fashion runway with a great deal of success; designing a line of jeans for Rock & Republic and then branching out into her own denim brand, dVb Style.
With fragrances, sunglasses, handbags and jewellery also to add to her repertoire of Beckham-branded endorsements, anyone would think she’d be too pressed for time to release two bestselling books, one her autobiography, the other a fashion guide. But, it seems most business ventures the Beckham’s touch, turn to gold.
Posh has appeared in a number of official documentaries and also a spate of reality television dramas. Victoria Beckham: Coming to America which documented the family’s move to America, was poorly received by the American press. But there is little doubt that the Beckhams, especially Victoria, have more than stirred the Hollywood pot with their impressive celebrity influence.
The couple’s joint wealth is estimated at around $250 million.
