💰 Compare Victoria Beckham's Net Worth

What is Victoria Beckham's net worth?

Victoria Beckham is a British singer, actress, and philanthropist who has a net worth of $450 million. That is a combined net worth with her husband, David Beckham. In the late 1990s, Beckham rose to fame with the all-female pop group the Spice Girls and was dubbed Posh Spice by the July 1996 issue of the British music magazine "Top of the Pops." After the Spice Girls split, she was signed to Virgin Records and Telstar Records and had four UK Top 10 singles.

Victoria Beckham has proven that there is life after pop stardom.  She burst onto the collective consciousness as one part of the cultural phenomenon known as he Spice Girls.  Nicknamed "Posh Spice", by the British press, the singer quickly gained legions of fans, and her pouty poses and fashion choices were mimicked by girls and women the world over.  Though the "Girl Power" fabulousness of the Spice Girls ultimately faded away as so often happens with pop groups, Victoria Beckham managed to launch an appreciable solo career.  Four UK Top 10s proved her popularity separate from the Spice Girls, and helped her create an identity of her own.  However, it proved to be in the world of fashion that "Posh Spice" has been able to have the most lasting influence.  Her clothing choices were always debated ad nauseum in the British press, so it only seemed natural for her to parlay this fascination with her personal style into a career.  She has designed her own denim line, a line of jeans for Rock & Republic, a line of sunglasses, a perfume, and a line of handbags and jewelry.  She regularly appears in lifestyle magazines wearing the latest designer rags, and has penned a bestselling fashion guide.  She has also served as a judge on multiple fashion-related reality shows, including "Project Runway" and "Germany's Next Top Model".  She is also famous for being the wife of professional football player David Beckham. They began dating in 1997 and married in 1999.

Early Life

Victoria Caroline Adams was born on April 17, 1974, in Essex, England. She was brought up in a wealthy home. Her parents, Jacqueline and Anthony, founded a successful electronics wholesale business. Victoria, her sister Louise, and her brother Christian grew up wealthy. She was bullied in school until she saw the movie "Fame" in 1980 and decided to become a performer. Her parents enrolled her at the Jason Theatre School and later at the Laine Theatre Arts School where Victoria studied dance and modeling. She attended St. Mary's High School, where she was embarrassed by her family's wealth and begged her dad not to drop her off in front of the school in his Rolls Royce.

Career

In March 1994, Beckham auditioned for an advertisement in a British weekly newspaper called The Stage that was looking for girls who were "street smart, extrovert, ambitious and able to sing and dance." That same year, she joined the all-female group the Spice Girls with Geri Halliwell, Emma Bunton, Melanie Brown, and Melanie Chisholm. The group's first single "Wannabe" was released in 1996 and went to number one on the charts in the U.K., U.S., and 35 other countries. That was followed by eight more number-one singles from the albums "Spice," "Spiceworld," and "Forever." The Spice Girls are the best-selling female group of all time, selling over 80 million albums worldwide. The Spice Girls broke up in 2000 to focus on their solo careers.

Victoria released the single "Out of Your Mind" in the summer of 2000. The song reached number two on the U.K. singles charts. Her next single, "Not Such an Innocent Girl," came out in September 2001 and debuted at number six on the charts. Her first solo album "Victoria Beckham" was released in October 2001 and reached number 10 on the U.K. album charts.

The Spice Girls announced their reunion tour in 2007. Their "Greatest Hits" album was released in November 2007 and the tour began on December 2, 2007. The Return of the Spice Girls tour played 47 dates across Europe and North America in The tour is estimated to have grossed over the US $70 million and produced $107.2 million in ticket sales and merchandising. The tour was the 8th highest-grossing concert tour of 2008.

Beckham has participated in five official documentaries and reality shows about her, including "Victoria's Secrets," "Being Victoria Beckham," "The Real Beckhams," "Victoria Beckham – A Mile In Their Shoes," and "Victoria Beckham: Coming to America."
