Victoria Beckham turns 50 on April 17, and the former British singer is facing a splendid professional moment after the success of her beauty brand and the good prognosis of her eponymous fashion brand. "I think you can be many things.
A pop star, a mother, a wife, a designer... My passion has always been to dream big and then dream even bigger! Believe in yourself first; everyone else will follow you. And if you are very lucky, you will find someone who believes in you even more than you do," she said in a message posted on her Instagram account on her husband's birthday. The Spice Girls became a mass phenomenon overnight. Victoria Beckham and David Beckham experienced stardom almost at the same time. The British tabloids, known for their practices of harassment and demolition, found in Posh and Becks, as they called the couple, their new goose that laid the golden eggs. The former singer lived one of the most terrifying episodes of her life when she learned of a plot to kidnap her. In 2002, Scotland Yard arrested nine people involved in the plot to abduct her. The Spice Girls released two albums in a row: Spice, in 1996, and Spiceeworld, in 1997. In 2000, the last one, Forever, arrived, and they lived on tour, becoming the most famous British women on the planet. During those years, Victoria was known as Posh Spice, a nickname always present in her life. The group represented an archetype (stereotyped according to nineties fashions), and she was always called Posh. They are currently working with Simon Fuller on a new album.
