Victoria Adams : Biography

Born Victoria Caroline Adams on April 17, 1974, in Hertfordshire, England, to parents Tony and Jackie, the singer admits to having wanted to be a star from the age of eight after seeing the film Fame. Recognising the showbiz bug in their little girl, her parents sent eight-year-old Victoria to the Jason Theatre School in Enfield where she studied until she was 17. A year later the budding performer moved on to Laine Arts Theatre College in Surrey, taking dancing lessons on the side. Three years later she answered an ad in the magazine The Stage looking for five girls who could sing and dance. It was to be her ticket to fame. The female quintet – Geri Halliwell, Mel B, Mel C, Emma Bunton and Victoria – would go on to become The Spice Girls. Victoria married soccer player David Beckham, and they had a son in 1999.
