Hollywood actress Victoria Beckham latest and hot photo gallery....

Victoria Adams was born on April 17, 1974, in Hertfordshire, England. Since achieving success as a pop singer in the 1990s, Victoria Beckham has become one of the most photographed women in the world. Tabloids seem to follow nearly every move that she and her husband, soccer star David Beckham make.

She pursued her interest in dance at the Laine Arts Theatre College in Surrey when she was 17. After three years there, Beckham moved to London to try to make it as a dancer. Her lucky break came when she answered an ad seeking energetic and hard-working young women in 1993.

The final line-up came together by mid-1993 and consisted of Melanie Brown, Melanie Chisholm, Geri Halliwell, Emma Bunton, and Beckham. The group wanted more creative control and soon broke off with Herbert.

They released their debut album, Spice, in 1996 and reached the top of American charts with the catchy dance-pop song "Wannabe" the following year. The follow-up single, "Say You'll Be There," climbed as high as number three on the Billboard 200 chart.

David Beckham Reveals His New Chest Tattoo

Couple of months ago David Beckham released a picture of himself got tattooed by Hollywood tattoo artist, Mark Mahoney. He wrote on his Facebook that the chest tattoo needs 12 hours to finish. After completion, David Beckham never shows it to the public, and the drawing remains a mystery.

Only couple of days ago that David Beckham revealed his new chest tattoo, again via his Facebook page. This time the drawing looks like something that you expect to see in the roof of a church or chapel. But as usual, Beckham's tattoo is connected to his family. It depicts Jesus being carried by three angels.


"It is Jesus being carried by three cherubs and obviously the cherubs are my boys and so my thought of it is that at some point my boys are going to need to look after me and that's what they're doing in the picture. It means a lot."

David revealed he never plans to get a new tattoo done, but often wakes up inspired with an idea. "I had it done before I left Los Angeles. I don't plan on having a tattoo, just sometimes I wake up and I have an idea of an image I'd like on me," he said.

"It's just something that I've found kind of expresses how I feel or thoughts I have or memories. There's not one tattoo I've got on me that doesn't mean something," he added.


David Beckham has at least 17 tattoos in his body, and most of them connected to his family. Now that his wife, Victoria Beckham, is pregnant with their fourth child, will he add one more angel on his chest soon?

Athlete's Fear Factor

Dennis Bergkamp

Dennis Bergkamp always has more fatigue than his teammates when Arsenal have to plays an away games in English Premiere League or Champions League. It was not because he trained too hard for the game, but because he spent much more time in the road.

He has an aviophobia, the fear of flying. That's why even if his team have to play across Europe, he still choose to travel by land. This where he got his nickname, "The Non Flying Dutchman".

Bergkamp had this phobia not since he was born. It started in 1994 when he was flying with his Dutch teammates to prepared for 1994 USA World Cup. His plane had an engine failure that made them has to wait in the airport. The rumor that there was a bomb in his plane made Bergkamp won't fly anymore.


The other athlete who has this phobia is Kareem Rush, former LA Lakers player.

Venus and Serena Williams

When in the field, these William's sister never affraid to face any opponents. They look very strong and seem can beat anyone. But in real life, they had a nemesis, that is horror movies. When they're watching horror movies, they're always closed their eyes almost at every moments of the movie.

Want to accompanying them when they're watching a horror movie?


Andy Roddick

Okay, Andy Roddick's phobia was not cool at all, it doesn't even have a medical term. He is affraid of eater bunny! Not just the real bunny, he's even fear man in a bunny costume, or pictures of eater bunny in magazines.

The funny thing is, he doesn't affraid of real rabbit. He used to have a rabbit pets.

David Beckham

What's David Beckham's fear factor? He has an OCD (obssesive compulsive disorder) where he can't stand to watch something messy. He arranged his clothes according to their colors, put bottles in refrigerator according to thier heights.

When he saw three can of beers in the fridge he has to get rid one of them, because three is an odd number. In a medical term Beckham's phobia is called ataxophobia.


Derrick Rose

Chicago Bulls's guard, Derrick Rose, very affraid of needle. Once when he was in the college playing in NCAA, he had an injury in his head. When the doctor said that his wound need to be sew, he was crying outloud and dash out from the locker room. He was calmed down when the doctor promised not to sew his wound.

Andre Agassi

Up until this moment, Andre Agassi has a arachnophobia, the excessive fear to spider!

Likes Father, Likes Son. Beckham's childrens wanna get tattoo too just like their father.



It’s been just a few days since David Beckham showed off a new tattoo, a ring of roses on his upper arm, and the star reveals his boys too want to grow up to be just like daddy. Speaking with Matt Lauer of NBC’s The Today Show, the star revealed that eldest Brooklyn, who is just 10 years old, has already asked for a tattoo in his body.


During interview, Beckham also gave away his smart suit to host Matt Lauer, after he admired it.

Beckham, who recently returned to the U.S. to play for LA Galaxy, changed into a pair of jeans before handing over the well-tailored outfit.

Lauer joked that he was not going to wear the suit - but instead would be selling it on eBay.

'I admired his suit, he came down in jeans and gave me the suit of his back,' he said.

'I am selling it on eBay are you kidding me. His underwear is back in the dressing room.'
