As the amazing Victoria Beckham reaches the big 4-0, we take a look back at her best quotes ever. Victoria, you tell it like it is and we heart you for it. No wonder David was smitten from the start...
'What's David's role? David looks good, that's what David does. David looks good, and I'm the funny one, that's what I hear constantly. But I keep telling him that looks fade.'
'I don't believe anyone who says they don't care what people say about them. Of course they bloody well do.'
'I like a man who can be a real friend, has a good sense of humour, a good pair of shoes, and a healthy Gold Card.'
'You have to remember that when you are a performer you become a celebrity, but you are not saving lives. It's not that important.'
'I don't know much about football. I know what a goal is, which is surely the main thing about football.'
'I actually used to smile a lot in pictures. I think I only stopped smiling when I got into fashion. Fashion stole my smile!'
'I appreciate that young girls look up to me. And I take that very seriously.'
'I tell you, the paparazzi would not be sitting outside if they realised I was the most boring person in Hollywood.'
'I think as I have got older, I have got a bit more relaxed, although you might not think that if you heard me screaming at my kids.'
'I was never going to give Mariah Carey any competition.'
'I want to reach as many women throughout the world as I can.'
'I'm not a supermodel. I make the best of what I've got.'
'I'm not one of these people that needs to feel loved. I don't need to see my picture everywhere.'
'If you have a surreal life like I do, you've got to have fun along the way.'
'I'll admit it: I'm a control freak. I am. If I'm going to do something, I'm going to do it 110 per cent or there's no point in doing it at all, especially if the work takes me away from time with my husband and children.'
