'World's Most Glamorous Star' ed hardy Former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham has seen off competition from Angelina Jolie and Dannii Minogue to be named the World's Most Glamorous Celebrity by cosmetics giant Max Factor.
The singer-turned-fashion designer topped the new poll, with Aussie pop star Minogue coming second, and Tomb Raider beauty Jolie in third place.
Victoria Caroline Beckham is an English singer-songwriter, dancer, fashion designer, author, businesswoman, actress and model.
During her rise to fame with the late 1990s girl pop group the Spice Girls, Beckham was dubbed Posh Spice, a nickname first coined by the British pop music magazine, Top of the Pops, in the band's July 1996, issue. Since the Spice Girls followed separate careers, she has had a solo pop music career, scoring four UK Top 10 singles. Her first single to be released, "Out of Your Mind", reached number two in the UK Singles Chart and is her highest chart entry to date. During her solo music career she has been signed to Virgin Records and Telstar Records.
Beckham has found more success as an internationally recognised and photographed style icon. She has had a career in fashion, designing a line of jeans for Rock & Republic and later designing her own denim brand, dVb Style. Beckham has brought out her own range of sunglasses and fragrance, entitled Intimately Beckham, which has been released in the UK and in the United States. In association with the Japanese store Samantha Thavasa and Shiatzy Chen, she has produced a range of handbags and jewellery. In addition, she has released two best-selling books; one her autobiography, the other a fashion guide.
A spokesperson for Max Factor says, "Victoria Beckham has been gracing the fashion pages for years now with her glamorous looks and she has designed her own clothes range.
"She never leaves home without being fully made up and her signature glossy pout has become her calling card. Her simple tailored clothes, along with her love of heels and elegant make-up, have made her a fashion icon and queen of glamour."
Other celebrities who made the list include actress Keira Knightley, U.K. TV presenter Myleene Klass, U.S. First Lady Michelle Obama, Kim Cattrall, Cameron Diaz, Megan Fox and British singer Leona Lewis.
