MUMBAI: Football star David Beckham's better half Victoria
Beckham who was formerly known as Posh Spice has signed a
deal with US broadcaster NBC for a new reality series from
Simon Fuller's 19 Entertainment.
It will give viewers an exclusive inside look at Beckham's
glamorous life as she makes the move across the pond from
London to Los Angeles. The six, half-hour episodes are slated
to premiere this summer.
NBC Entertainment president Kevin Reilly says, "The
series will give viewers a glimpse into what makes Victoria
so popular and admired as one of the most glamorous women
in the world. She makes news wherever she goes and our audience
can now become insiders in this fascinating personal view
of what being 'Posh' truly represents."
Beckham says, "I am so excited to be making this show
for NBC with Simon Fuller. He has so much success around the
world with his TV shows and the respect and trust of everybody
he works with. This show is really something different, it's
pushing the boundaries and I think it's going to surprise
a lot of people."
Fuller says, "For the past few years, I've been inundated
with requests to make a show based on Victoria's real life.
After much thought, we have finally decided to do it. NBC will
be our partners. Both Kevin Reilly and Craig Plestis have been
extremely supportive in allowing us to do something a little
different. This show will cross all genres and hopefully will
pleasantly surprise a few people!"
Beckham burst onto the scene as a member of the pop group
The Spice Girls. Known around the world as "Posh Spice,"
the group sold millions of albums worldwide before it disbanded
in 2001.
