Becks makes Posh cry at awards ceremony
It all got a bit too much for Victoria Beckham when her hubby David paid tribute to her while accepting the Lifetime Achievement Award at the BBC's Sports Personality of the Year last night.She couldn't help blubbing as he said: "Of course, I want to thank my wife and my children.
"Not only has she given me three amazing boys but the support she's given me and she is truly and inspiration for me every single day. So Victoria, Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz - thank you."
And Dave was struggling not to cry himself as he spoke at the star-studded sports bash.
Sir Bobby Charlton had to step in and take the microphone as he choked back his tears of happiness.
The football legend said: "I would just like to say congratulations to David. He is a very very pleasant person and a good man and he deserves everything that has been said of him tonight."
And that's a sentiment I think we can all agree with, isn't it?

She regularly tops lists of the hottest women on the planet and is famous for her ample curves - but Megan Fox seems to have taken a disturbing turn for the skinny.The Transformers star was snapped on the beach in Hawaii, with her protruding hip bones and sternum grabbing more attention than her more, erm, famous assets.
Megs was snapped while away on holiday with husband Brian Austin Green. The 24-year-old actress and her 37-year-old hubby are spending the Christmas break there together with his eight-year-old son Kassius.
The couple tied the knot on Hawaii back in June this year.

We get that it's warm in California - but J Lo, there's no need to do away with the skirt completely.
Jennifer channelled some 60s Bridget Bardot style while out and about in Pasadena at the weekend, and although at first glance she looks like she's forgotton to finish getting dressed, this diva still manages to pull off the look.
We love the chic black and gold colour comb, and the Kelly Locke studded clutch.

Kim Trend: Black Leather Accents
I’ve always been a fan of leather, and this fall I’ve been incorporating it into my outfits by choosing pieces with leather accents, like this amazing LAMB leather mix dress.
I think it’s fun to mix different fabrics and incorporate fabrics in accents that you might not usually wear. The dress I wore to our Los Angeles book signing had a fab leather zipper down the front and I paired an Altuzurra belt with the black Altazurra dress I wore recently in NYC to add a touch of leather to the look.
Kourtney, Khloe and I experimented with mixing fabrics in our new holiday collection for Bebe, like this lace and feather dress and this silk tulip dress

Beyonce buys Jay-Z a £1.3 million Bugatti
Beyonce buys Jay-Z a £1.3 million Bugatti
Superstar singer Beyonce has bought her husband, rapper Jay-Z, a £1.3 million
Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport for his birthday.
The lavish gift meant that when Jay-Z turned 41 on December 4, he was the
lucky recipient of the world's fastest convertible.
The Veyron Grand Sport is powered by a 16.4-litre engine, developing 987bhp,
which propels it to 62mph in less than 2.7 seconds. Its 253mph top speed
officially makes it the fastest production convertible in the world.
Beyonce couldn't stretch to - or more likely couldn't get her hands on - the
ultimate Bugatti Veyron - the Super Sport. That version made headlines this year
by hitting a verified 267.8mph top speed, which makes it the fastest production
car in the world.
Only five cars capable of that speed were built, which are known as 'World
Record Editions'. The remaining cars are limited to a 'mere' 258mph.
Beyonce ordered her husband's Grand Sport over a year ago, and it's now the
latest of a large number of luxury cars owned by the rapper. Jay-Z's garage
includes a Rolls-Royce Phantom, a Maybach, and a Pagani Zonda.
Careful interpretation of the lyrics to his song 'Empire State of Mind'
reveals that he could also own a Subaru Tribeca - which would probably be the
rarest car on his fleet.

Beauty Trend: Hair
NICKI MINAJ looks set to give Lady Gaga a run for her money. Not least because the Trinidadian hip-hop artist has, like Gaga, . Beyond the MAC connection, both Minaj and Lady Gaga share a penchant for statement-making fashion and equally eye-catching hair.
Both have been spotted sporting this year's bold hair colour trend: the dip-dye look, where just the ends of hair are dyed a significantly different colour to the rest.
SEE STYLISH DIP-DYE HAIR LOOKS
While Nicki favours a platinum blonde wig with an ever-evolving array of dip-dyed ends, Gaga teamed her infamous 'meat dress' with lilac roots and pastel blue ends at the MTV Awards. Other, less outlandish, celebrities have been favouring the dip-dye hair trend too - albeit in a more sedate fashion. Alexa Chung and Rachel Bilson have been among those working the subtler take on the trend - ombre colour, where the roots and mid-section of the hair is left dark brown and the ends are given a surfer-girl blonde colouring.

Forget music... How Jessica Simpson's fashion empire is on course to break $1billion in sales
Her film career appears to have been a one-hit wonder, and her latest album
has had mixed reviews.
But Jessica Simpson, it seems, has quietly been making a huge success of her
fashion label.
The 30-year-old, who launched her clothing label just three years ago, is set
to break $1billion in sales next year, according to fashion industry title
WWD.
This year alone, it made $750million in retail sales, though the projected
figure for next year takes into account the launch of a sportswear
collection.
Nine West founder Vince Camuto, who owns the Jessica Simpson Collection brand
master licence, explained the secret to her success.
'She is the girl next door and has great product that surrounds her,' he told
WWD.
'People like her. People look at her as a style icon.'
Jack Gross from the Jones Group, which
licenses the Jeanswear line added: '15, 16-year-olds and 40-year-olds like
her.
'Sometimes she has missteps, and they identify with her.'
Since its launch in 2007, Simpson, who is a creative director for the
collection, along with her mother, has expanded her offering to include a
popular footwear range, accessories, luggage and even a fragrance.
The denim collection is already stocked in 650 department stores across the
U.S., including Macy’s, Dillard’s and Belk, where 600 people once queued to see
the star make a personal appearance.
Jessica Simpson Jeans and the new sportswear line alone are expected to make
$200 million in retail sales over the next two years.
Her film career appears to have been a one-hit wonder, and her latest album
has had mixed reviews.
The Dukes of Hazzard star revealed that the sportswear would be inspired by
understated designer brands like Isabel Marant, Theory, and Sportmax.
'Since entering the fashion industry, I've envisioned including a sportswear
line in my lifestyle brand,' she said in a press release.
'This new sportswear line reflects my evolving style, which combines comfort,
femininity and flirty fun.'
Simpson, who recently got engaged to NFL player Eric Johnson, personally has
an estimated net worth of $100million.
In an interview to promote her new album, Happy Christmas, she said that she
had not had time to start wedding preparations yet.
'We have not started planning. I'm trying to get through all this promotion.
Who knows what will happen?
'We're just going to enjoy the engagement and we'll get married the moment we
feel like it.'
