This is the extent of my journalistic integrity–I’m assuming that it was the UK’s Glamour “Woman of the Year” because the publication from which I gleaned this information is based in London, and I’m just too damn lazy to go ahead and confirm it. But in any case, here’s why she was chosen:

Glamour editor Jo Elvin said: “For the past 10 years, Victoria Beckham has been a figure of fascination. She has successfully reinvented herself from pop star to devoted wife and mother to successful designer and business mogul.”

So, if I’m wrong, I kind of don’t care that much. Because this is really about Posh and her fingerless bicycle gloves and corset-ensemble. I feel like she arrived to the scene on a bicycle that was invented back in the 80’s for people to travel back to the future. She and Captain EO had to combine their pedaling powers on a tandem beach cruiser in order to get up to 88 mph. But it was worth it, because she made it just before her shoulder pads caught on fire.
