Victoria Beckham Named World's Most Glamorous Celebrity in Max Factor Poll

She ain't called Posh for nothin'!

Former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham beat out big-time beauties like Angelina Jolie to be crowned World's Most Glamorous Celebrity in a recent UK poll.

In conjunction with the launch of its new Vibrant Curve Effect Lip Gloss, cosmetics giant Max Factor asked 3,000 women to name the famous female whom they believe is the most fashionable. Beckham took top honors, with Dannii Minogue (uhh... who?) and Jolie placing second and third, respectively.

So just what qualifies the 36-year-old singer-turned-designer for such an esteemed title?

"Victoria Beckham has been gracing the fashion pages for years now with her glamorous looks, and she has designed her own clothes range," a Max Factor spokesperson said of the star, who strutted her stuff in a ruffled LBD and stilettos during a May 4 lunch in London.

"She never leaves home without being fully made up, and her signature glossy pout has become her calling card," the spokesperson added. "Her simple tailored clothes, along with her love of heels and elegant makeup, have made her a fashion icon and queen of glamour."

Guess that clears that up.

Still, one more question remains: Who the hell is Dannii Minogue?

Glamorous? Jeez, she looks like a skinny witch. Whoever voted her in must be blind or paid off.

She looks like she NEVER eats. (anorexic) Who in the hell could afford those clothes anyway? Not to mention they are ugly.

I really think that people need to be educated on the proper definition of glamerous if she was selected #1 in that poll.

She is pretty but I would hardly call her the most glamorous in the world.
Then again they only polled 3000 people who use Max Factor make-up.

It would be a boring world if everyone's tastes were the same. This is not my definition of glamorous, but apparently it is for some. Everytime I see these paper thin women, I think back of the stick figures I made as a kid. Guess some people continue to believe this is what the human body is supposed to look like. I have to admit though. Victoria does wear some great outfits, but too expensive for my blood.

There was an old Twilight Zone where they has to wear masks in order to inherit their gf's estate and their faces changed to ugly after the old man died. She reminds me of the after's. Remember? Nothing glamourous about that woman.

I agree she is stunning, she never leaves her house unless she is fully groomed and she is very charming!! I DON'T think she should of won # 1,.. I can think of a lot of other ladies that are much prettier! I think she should smile more for her fans and she needs to put weight on. She is very charming and I love her accent she speaks so proper! She is very fortunate in life I hope she is grateful for what she has, and she is an awesome designer!! CONGRADULATIONS VICTORIA

Does this woman have such bad teeth that she's afraid to smile?? I have never seen her smile, either in pictures or live.

i think the reason she doesn't smile is to avoid getting wrinkles around the mouth and eyes. while she isn't exactly a beauty, and is extremely thin, she does maintain a certain amount of style. as far as being the most glamorous, well there are others more deserving of that title.

Well honestly I think she looks sorta scary! Her eyes are way too dark and like you all said she hardly ever smiles and she has such an oily look to her face. A little powder should help!

As an old lady of 63, I think Victoria Beckman does not set a good example for young women. Victoria Beckman must not eat, she is skin and bones, I have never seen her smile. I do believe she is a good mother though.

The tan gown is very pretty. She is attractive, but without a smile, she does not look pretty. I'd rather smile and get wrinkles, which can always be fixed at the derm doc office.

CHARIZE THERON HAND UP - the MOST gorgeous, along with Catherine Zeta-Jones, Jaclyn Smith, Faith Hill and few others - beauty, glamour and style - at ANY age - Victoria Beckham looks like ET. Thin is one thing, a social X-ray is another - WHO ON EARTH voted her most glamourous? They must have been sniffing magic markers.
