Biography

Victoria Caroline Beckham (born Victoria Caroline Adams on 17 April 1974) is an English popular music singer, who first came to prominence as a member of girl band the Spice Girls, as Posh Spice, a nickname given to her by the BBC's Top of the Pops magazine. She is married to soccer icon David Beckham.

Victoria Beckham was born and brought up in affluent Goffs Oak, Hertfordshire to Anthony William (Tony) Adams, an electronics engineer, and Jacqueline Doreen (Jackie) Cannon. She has a younger sister Louise and a younger brother Christian. Her father used to drive her to school in a Rolls-Royce and their house boasted a pool. Prior to joining the Spice Girls, Victoria had a number of odd modeling and dancing jobs (she is a trained dancer). Right before joining the Spice Girls she had joined a band where she would be the lead singer; however she left them after falling in love with the Spice Girl project. Even though she sang off key in the audition (she said the song was in the wrong key for her but 'she can really sing') she was chosen anyway.
