Posh joins Hollywood A-list on her big night out
Marking her debut in LA, Victoria Beckham was determined to stand out from the crowd.
But in Hollywood, this can prove difficult to do. Posh and her new pal Cameron Diaz endured a rather embarrassing fashion moment when they realized they were both wearing the same silver stilettos.

Still, wearing a clinging black and white animal print mini-dress teamed with a fluorescent pink bra, the 33-year-old former Spice Girl managed to look past that faux pas and made quite an impression.
Tottering on stage beside the actor, Chris Tucker, Mrs Beckham received a surprisingly warm welcome from the live studio audience. Displaying no trace of any nerves, she helped introduce US stars Rhianna and the rapper Jay Z.

While cynics are still questioning Mrs Beckham's ability to crack America, her appointment as a guest presenter is most certainly a step in the right direction.
Other celebrities asked to follow suit included John Travolta, Robin Williams and Samuel L. Jackson.
Jack Nicholson, Sacha Baron Cohen and troubled socialite Paris Hilton were also all in attendance at the star-studded event.
Of course, it is no surprise that, in a show-stealing outfit, Mrs Beckham did her utmost to shine.

Victoria Beckham presented an award with actor Chris Tucker, while Johnny Depp was the night's big winner
In the five months since her 32-year-old husband, David, announced his £128 million move to LA Galaxy, the mother-of-three has been waiting patiently for her big break.
A £10 million deal with a US television network has yet to be screened - plus she reportedly angered TV bosses with her decision to delay filming so that she could watch her husband's return to the England team last weekend.
After being asked to present one of the performing artists at the annual MTV Movie Awards, the singer-turned-designer understandably leapt at the chance.
Speaking on the red carpet prior to the ceremony, Mrs Beckham spoke about the couple's widely publicised move to LA.
"I'm here decorating the house at the moment, trying to find a school for the kids," she told GMTV.
"Well they just got into a school so I’m happy about that. And I’m just busy trying to get everything sorted so it’s perfect for the boys and David’s arrival.
"I’m just going backwards and forwards trying to get everything ready, sorting out the house; it’s like a building site at the moment, there are so many builders in there.
"I just want David and the boys to turn up and for it to be perfect for them.
"I’m kind of feathering my nest for them at the moment for them, trying to make it perfect."

Other big winners during the live broadcast from the Gibson Amphitheater included Mike Myers, who won the MTV Generation Award, and Sacha Baron Cohen, who collected two trophies.

The two comedians shared a long, passionate kiss - culminating in a roll-around-on-the-floor makeout session - as they accepted their awards. The movie prizes were almost upstaged by a star who wasn't nominated for any: Paris Hilton.
The heiress, who has started her jail term just hours after appearing at the event, caused a commotion when she arrived on the ruby carpet outside the amphitheater.
Wearing a ruffled black dress and dazzling jewels, she flashed her trademark coy smile as she posed for photos and talked with reporters.
