PRESS RELEASE: Friday 12TH August, 2016 REMAKE OF SPICE GIRLS WANNABE VIDEO RELEASED IN CINEMAS FOLLOWING HUGELY SUCCESSFUL LAUNCH AT CANNES LIONS Friday 12th August, 2016, Sydney, Australia: September 2016 marks the first anniversary of world leaders adopting the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals and, this year, the focus will be on gender equality. A remake of Spice Girls’ Wannabe, entitled ‘#WhatIReallyReallyWant’, has been created by Project Everyone, the organization committed to driving mass awareness of the UN’s goals. It features actors, singers and dancers from around the world and has been edited to represent the voices of women worldwide, telling world leaders what they ‘really, really want’ in 2016. SAWA, the global cinema advertising association and its Global Cinema Advertising Companies, have generously supported the campaign within its ‘Power of Cinema to Drive Cultural Change’ seminar at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity 2016, by exclusively previewing the Global Goals advert to the Communications and Creative Industry. Since then, #WhatIReallyReallyWant has been launched organically online to huge success. It has been supported by a huge host of powerful voices and influencers including 3/5 of the original Spice Girls, Emma Watson, Richard Branson, Gal Galoot, Jacqueline Fernandez, Greg James, Tanya Burr, Jamie Oliver, Caitlin Moran and many more. Already it has achieved: • Over 100 million views on Facebook, including 53 million views on Victoria Beckham’s page • Over 1.2 million views on the Global Goals YouTube channel • Within the first 24 hours, the hashtag #WhatIReallyReallyWant had over 36 million impressions on Twitter • Over 4,000 Instagram users have posted the #WhatIReallyReallyWant hashtag • Over 60 international news outlets have covered the campaign, including the Evening Standard, Harper’s Bazaar, Upworthy, Lenny Letter, Huffington Post, Billboard, the BBC and the Guardian.

Victoria Beckham Visits UNAIDS in Geneva to Lend Her Support to The
PRESS RELEASE Victoria Beckham visits UNAIDS in Geneva to lend her support to the AIDS response ahead of World AIDS Day UNAIDS International Goodwill Ambassador urges people to test for HIV and to seek treatment if necessary GENEVA, 23 November 2018—A little over one week before World AIDS Day, UNAIDS International Goodwill Ambassador Victoria Beckham has visited the organization’s Geneva, Switzerland, headquarters to support calls for people to know their HIV status and to seek treatment for HIV if necessary. “I am really happy to be in Geneva to support UNAIDS in the run-up to World AIDS Day,” said Ms Beckham during her visit. “We need to make sure that people feel supported to take an HIV test by ending the stigma and discrimination still too often associated with the virus. Today, we have the medicines to keep people healthy and to stop the virus being transmitted. AIDS isn’t over yet, but it can be.” UNAIDS estimates that there were around 36.9 million people living with HIV worldwide in 2017, with around 21.7 million people accessing life-saving medicines that keep people alive and well and stop the transmission of the virus. However, UNAIDS also estimates that around one in four people worldwide continue to be unaware that they are living with HIV. During the visit, the UNAIDS Executive Director, Michel Sidibé, met with Ms Beckham to thank her for her support and to discuss the latest developments in the AIDS response. “We have made a lot of progress in expanding access to treatment, but the number of people who don’t know their HIV status is still far too high,” said Mr Sidibé.

Victoria Beckham for Target
SATIN BUTTON-DOWN LONG-SLEEVE SHIRT, VICTORIA BECKHAM FOR TARGET. POLYESTER TRACKSUIT BOTTOMS, AND LEATHER TRAINERS, BOTH ADIDAS. GOLD RING (ON RIGHT INDEX FINGER), CLARICE PRICE THOMAS. ALL OTHER JEWELLERY, VICTORIA’S OWN COVER STAR Victoria Beckham ‘I’m really good value at a dinner party – I want to relax and have a laugh. I like to have fun, and I think that often surprises people’ Words Lotte Jeffs Photography Kerry Hallihan Styling Alison Edmond WHEN WE MEET AT HER SOUTH-WEST LONDON DESIGN STUDIO, Victoria Beckham, 43, is wearing an oversized cream jumper. As she talks – carefully, pointedly, knowing that every sentence is a potential tabloid headline – she frequently shrinks into her polo neck, pulling it up so only her hyper-alert eyes are visible. She warms up after I spill a cup of peppermint tea on the carpet (‘When you have kids, nothing is sacred’), and answers my questions with warmth and humour. Her large, private office is in the middle of the workshop. Having just launched her first high-street collaboration with US retailer Target (her elevated everyday style for women and kids at an accessible price point), she and the team are busy putting the finishing touches to the autumn/winter collection she will show in New York the following week. ‘Emancipation with optimism’ and ‘Feminine with a practical streak’ were how she described her new work, and they are words that must be on her mind as we chat. She comes across as thoughtful – or, as she puts it, ‘intense’ – when discussing world events and a more feminist future for Harper and her three boys, but I’m surprised by her easy rapport.
