Victoria Beckham's 2001 single, "Not Such an Innocent Girl," has topped the UK's Official Singles Sales and Download charts, driven by fans supporting her amid a reported family rift. This marks Beckham's first number one since the Spice Girls' single in 2000. The surge in sales and streams, which increased by 19,615% since last week, followed public attention on Beckham's family matters. While the song reached number one on these specific charts, it did not break into the main Top 100 chart, which combines sales and streams. Despite initial hype in 2001, the song only reached number 6 and Beckham's solo music career was short lived as she pursued fashion.
