BFFs Victoria “Posh Spice” Beckham and Melanie “Scary Spice” Brown arrive in London to rehearse with their bandmates. The quintet’s world tour kicks off on December 2nd in Vancouver.
Victoria Beckham will offer her fashion ideas in a new book, “That Extra Half an Inch: Hair, Heels and Everything in Between,” to be published by HarperCollins in November.
“I’ve always been a girl’s girl,” Beckham, aka Posh Spice, said in a statement Thursday. “And I know from experience that making the very best of yourself is something any woman can do.”
Beckham is a member of the newly reunited Spice Girls and wife of soccer star David Beckham.
“I was never the 6-foot-tall pinup. I’ve always been the girl-next-door who got lucky,” she said. “I’ve come a long way in the last 10 years, but this book isn’t my attempt to tell you what or what not to do. It’s just to share some of what I’ve learned.”
According to HarperCollins, “That Extra Half an Inch” will offer guidance on everything from how to dress on special occasions to “how to feel confident and look great every time you leave the house.”
Beckham’s ability to sell books, at least other people’s books, has already been demonstrated. Last spring, she was seen holding a copy of “Skinny Bitch,” a diet guide by Rory Freedman and Kim Barnouin that soon became a best seller. (AP)
Victoria and David Beckham, aka Posh and Becks, strip down in steamy photos for the August issue of W magazine.
They strike a sultry pose for the cover of the issue, on newsstands July 20, but things get more seductive in a photo spread inside. Steven Klein’s photos show the pair in various states of undress ¡ª kissing passionately, sunning themselves atop a car and having an intimate moment in the bedroom.
The 32-year-old soccer star and his wife, Posh Spice of the Spice Girls, will be seen in an NBC special, “Victoria Beckham: Coming to America,” to air Monday. It follows Beckham, 33, as she prepares to move from Europe to Los Angeles, where her husband will play for the Los Angeles Galaxy of Major League Soccer. (David Beckham appears briefly in the special, but viewers won’t see the couple’s three sons.)
The couple, who were married in September 1999, got together in 1997 after meeting at a soccer game in London.
They also connect on a sartorial level.
Other than the recently announced Spice Girls reunion tour, Beckham has denied she’s planning to resurrect her showbiz career.
The Spice Girls tour is set to open Dec. 7 in Los Angeles, reuniting the five-member girl group that sold millions of records in the 1990s before breaking up in 2001.
Harry Potter star Emma Watson is the one most Brits believe is their country’s ‘Greatest Female Ambassador’.
The 17-year old, who plays the muggle-born witch Hermione Granger in the hit movie adaptations of the Harry Potter novels, has beat out the likes of older, and more well known faces such as Kate Moss, Keira Knightley and Victoria Beckham.
The poll was conducted by Top of the Pops magazine, and editor Peter Hart said that it was Watson’s combination of beauty and brains that were the qualities that sealed the deal.
Coming in close on Hermione’s heels in second place was Oscar nominee Keira Knightley, followed by singer Lily Allen in third spot.
Fourth place on the list went to pregnant singer Charlotte Church.
Rounding off the top five was another pregnant beauty, former glamour model Jordan.
And, while Victoria Beckham aka Posh Spice only managed eighth place, Kate Moss and Girls Aloud’s Sarah Harding found themselves a the bottom of the poll.Chinadaily.com.cn
Talk of a Spice Girls reunion has swirled for weeks - boosted by Sporty Spice herself - and on Friday the vivacious five said they would make “an announcement to the world” next week.
Gossip took a major leap, and suddenly old film clips of the 1990s pop sensations were all over British television.
The statement issued by the quintet’s management company seemed designed to move the rumors up a notch and stretch them out for a good week.
Victoria (Adams) Beckham (Posh Spice), Melanie Chisholm (Sporty Spice), Geri Halliwell (Ginger Spice), Emma Bunton (Baby Spice) and Melanie Brown (Scary Spice) formed the Spice Girls in 1994. They became a global hit before splitting in 2001.
Chisholm, who had opposed a reunion, recently told the British Broadcasting Corp. she had changed her mind.
The Spice Girls’ 2000 album, “Forever,” had weak sales, and they began concentrating on their solo careers.
