STYLE ICON VICTORIA BECKHAM TO GUEST STAR ON ABC’S “UGLY BETTY”

Victoria Beckham — style icon and Spice Girl – will pay a visit to ABC’s award-winning comedy “Ugly Betty” in an episode to film this fall. She will play herself, a celebrity bridesmaid at the wedding of the millennium: Wilhelmina Slater’s (Vanessa Williams) nuptials to publishing mogul Bradford Meade (Alan Dale). Who knows what will happen when “bridezilla” Wilhelmina takes that march down the aisle, especially with “Posh Spice” leading the way?

Victoria burst onto the scene as a member of the hit ’90s all-girl super group The Spice Girls. Known around the world as “Posh Spice,” the elegant and confident member of the ensemble, Beckham sold millions of records worldwide with the group before it disbanded in 2001. She went on to become an accomplished solo artist, with such hits as “Not Such an Innocent Girl” and “This Groove/Let Your Head Go On.” In 1999 she married soccer superstar David Beckham and they quickly became one of the world’s most celebrated couples. In 2004 Victoria Beckham wanted to follow her passion for style and fashion and embarked on various fashion partnerships, one of them being the hugely successful Victoria Beckham for Rock and Republic. Most recently she launched her own premium fashion label called dVb, penned a bestselling style bible, “That Extra Half an Inch,” as well as her own line of fragrances.
