From the Sun.

VICTORIA BECKHAM is to become the worldwide face of rapper JAY-Z’s bling bling fashion range.

Posh is going “street” by modelling for Rocawear, the biggest hip-hop clothing range in America, in a £1million campaign.

The move will help Victoria become a household name in the US. Her image will even be plastered on billboards in New York’s Time Square.

The new look of baggy tops, trainers and tracksuits bottoms will be a dramatic fashion departure for Posh.

She is more used to glamorous frocks from Italian design house Dolce & Gabbana.

A source close to the singer said:

“Victoria is in New York now preparing for a shoot and she will launch the campaign in both America and Britain in the summer.So far the stuff she’s recorded with her new label Telstar has been very pop and dance oriented but she’s keen to go a bit more street. Maybe her hubby DAVID has had something to do with it — he’s a big rap fan.”
