Geri Halliwell was recently seen out and about London and it has people getting a bit curious. The former Spice Girls singer was accompanied by Kenny Goss, George Michael’s long-term boyfriend, and the two visited a church and some fancy dress shops. Could there be a wedding in the works? A source said “Geri and Kenny seemed to be spending the day making wedding arrangements. They were in the church ages before looking at formal dress at the tailors. Geri was giggling and seemed really excited. She wouldn’t say what they were doing, but Kenny let the cat out of the bag.” Apparently, when a bystander asked who was getting married, Kenny pointed to Geri before correcting himself that they were both getting married. Geri has been dating Henry Beckwith since last April so it’s safe to assume that they’re getting married.
Mel B has once again confirmed the news that there’s going to be some sort of Spice Girls reunion some time soon. The singer said “We are definitely going to be doing something together again soon. We’re actually working on it right now. I don’t want to say too much because I don’t want to spoil the surprise, but it’s really, really exciting. I can’t wait to be singing with the girls again.” If you’ve been following these reports about the girl band reuniting again, you would notice that Victoria Beckham has been out of the picture. Oh well, it’s not like her vocals were ever showcased anyway.
Mel B has enjoyed a dinner with her former Spice Girls pals Mel C, Emma Bunton and Geri Halliwell – but not fifth member Victoria Beckham.
The 34-year-old is in London after guest-hosting on women’s talk show Loose Women and met up with her former band members.
She revealed on Twitter that she had the star-studded dinner: “Spice girls,stadiums?????????? Had dinner with the amazing melc emma and geri I love them so much!”
However there was no mention of their other band member Victoria Beckham, who recently appeared on US women’s chat-show The View.
While in London recently, Mel met up with her former boyfriend Peter Andre who was promoting his new album.
If you want to be Mel B’s business partner, you better not do anything to screw her out of a bunch of money because the former Spice Girls member won’t think twice about slapping you with a lawsuit. According to legal documents, the former singer and her husband Stephen Belafonte are suing Dan Catullo for $7 million after they say that a business deal with him went sour. The couple claims that they tried to join forces with Dan in 2008 by setting up a company to profit off of Mel’s “music, touring, merchandising [and] public appearances.” They claim that Catullo not only backed out of the $2 million deal but that he also defrauded Mel in a number of ways, including forging her signature on a financial document. They are suing $7 million for fraud, breach of contract and a number of other alleged offenses.
Victoria Beckham’s first day as a guest judge for American Idol wasn’t exactly her best. The former Spice Girls member flew into Denver for the first round of AI auditions last Friday and according to inside sources, Posh failed to bring her top game to the table. A production insider said “It didn’t go too well. She tried too hard to be ‘nice,’ but came off as icy and wooden.” Isn’t she like that every time? Contestants were also said to be deeply disappointed when they showed up to the Paula Abdul-free audition. What, were they expecting that it was just some huge prank that she left?
Who says girl bands have to be in competition? It looks like the Spice Girls are fans of Girls Aloud! Emma Bunton and Geri Halliwell, famously known as Baby and Ginger, were seen leaving a Girls Aloud concert at Wembley Stadium in London last Wednesday night. I think it’s super cool to see talented women supporting other talented women. Now that is what I call girl power! I also think it’s pretty nice that Emma and Geri still get together after having retired as Spice Girls. However, I doubt we’ll be able to see them hanging out with Victoria Beckham and Mel B though.
The former Spice Girl has forbidden her three daughters from watching her new Las Vegas show. Melanie B said the following about “Peepshow”: “I am thrilled with the finished ‘Peepshow’ product – all the rehearsals have paid off and it is an amazing show. But there are three people who won’t be seeing the production – Phoenix, Angel and Giselle! The show is quite saucy in parts and there are some scenes that are unsuitable for children.” No, really? Amazing! You wouldn’t expect other parents to be so responsible! No really, you wouldn’t… Melanie B really sets an example here, not like some others who think about taking their 18 month-old boy to music festivals.
Victoria Beckham may have achieved popularity worldwide as one of the Spice Girls but those days are over for her as she turned from spice to simply the wife of soccer superstar David Beckham. It’s not just domestic duties for Victoria Beckham though as she is bent on making a name in the fashion industry. She is in fact already considered a fashion icon in her own right with her designs worn by celebrities.
Victoria Beckham said while she has fond memories of her pop star days, music is no longer her passion. Instead, Victoria Beckham said she is now more passionate about fashion as evident with her own denim line dVb Style. She said she is pretty proud of her body and she sure loved her photos in the recent sexy Armani underwear advertisements. What she wants is to turn 50 and hear her kids say their mommy doesn’t look bad even after three kids.
In an interview with GMTV, Mel B, more famously known as Scary Spice, revealed that she is heading out on tour with Janet Jackson. Mel said “Yep, well I’m 10 songs into my album and she worked with me on one of the tracks. I’m also doing a tour of America with her in September, which I can’t wait for. She’s a great lady.” That’s great and all except maybe for the fact that she’s lying. Sources are saying that it’s absolutely false that she’s going on tour with Janet. One source could hardly contain their laughter when asked if it was true saying “Not at all.”
The artist who’s arguably the most talented to have come out of the Spice Girls camp has just released her solo album ‘This Time’ in Canada and she’s gracing the Canadians with her presence. Mel C is going on a tour across Canada in support of her solo album. Her tour kicks off on May 4 at Club Soda in Montreal and will round off on May 17 at The Plaza Club in Vancouver. Sporty is going places people and she’s taking her amazing music with her! Canada better love her or they’ll have me to answer to! Go Sporty!
Melanie Chisolm, more famously known as Sporty Spice, is arguably the most talented Spice Girl out of the five and she is looking to make more people believe that with a solo show that she has scheduled in Manhattan. Just as she did with her solo gig in LA, the singer will be playing her own material with her band during a night off from the Spice Girls reunion tour. The gig will be on February 9th, a Saturday, at The Grand Ballroom in Manhattan Center. Tickets go for $35 in advance or $40 at the door. Tickets will be available via Ticketmaster and Live Nation of January 18th. Sporty will take the stage at 9:15PM.
From Scary Spice to just plain Scrooge, Mel B pocketed a whopping £10,000 from a Christmas fundraiser in aid of terminally ill kids.
Despite the estimate MILLIONS the Spice Girls are expected to make on their comeback tour, Mel refused to waive her appearance fee for helping the Make a Wish Foundation.
An insider at the store fumed: “All Mel B did was sing a couple of Christmas songs, sign autographs and mingle with the crowd collecting donations in a plastic bucket. And for that she pocketed £10,000 that should have gone to needy kids. Many people felt she should have waived her fee. It’s the least she could have done to help raise cash for the kids.”
Bah humbug. Who thinks Mel should get a lump of coal in her stocking this year?
If their performance at the Victoria’s Secret fashion show was anything to go by, the Spice Girls concert wouldn’t be any good. But the thing is, that performance isn’t anything compared to the actual show because the show is really good!
Besides making LA fans go crazy by singing all their hits on Wednesday, Baby, Scary, Ginger and Sporty each belted out solo numbers. Mel C did ‘I Turn to You’, Scary made her own rendition of ‘Are You Gonna Go My Way’ and Ginger did ‘It’s Raining Men’. I forget what Baby sang but it brought the house down along with the other 3 nonetheless.
What did Posh do? Instead of belting out her own solo number, she opted to prance down the runway to a mix of Madonna’s ‘Like a Virgin’ and RuPaul’s ‘Supermodel’.
Another Spice Girls blog is up with Geri Halliwell penning it. In her blog, she admits that with all the rehearsals going on for the Spice Girls’ world tour, she feels like she’s stuck in some sort of ‘Spice Bubble’.
“I actually feel like I’m in the Spice bubble… we are encapsulated in this world where we are just immersed in each other’s lives constantly. Just before the run through of the show this morning, Mel B, Victoria and I even went to the loo together… in separate cubicles, obviously!”
She also talked about the Spice Kids having play dates and surprising Mel B in the live final of Dancing With the Stars.
Spice Girls mania is alive and kicking in the US, a little quiet in the UK and close to dead in South America. The girls have cancelled the only announced concert in South America. They sent an email to fans that had already signed up for tickets to the Buenos Aires show in explanation.
They say that due to their solo projects and family obligations, they are unable to extend the tour and that the Buenos Aires date is one that they are finding hard to fit into their schedules. As some sort of consolation, the girls will be holding contests for South American fans. The prize of which is a trip to London, flight and accommodations taken care of, to watch one of their shows.
We should already come to expect that after showing up for their first show together and the fact that their reunion tour is just around the corner, another Spice Girls blog would be up. This time around, it’s from Sporty Mel C. She talked about rehearsing, performing and even nerves.
She’s incredibly excited about their upcoming tour and spoke about the rehearsals saying that she thinks after all of it, they may just as well run a marathon. She also talked about the rush of being on stage at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show last week but said that she was incredibly nervous and even shaking the whole time.
I’m sure the nerves will be gone come the start of their tour.
In a sneak peek at their highly anticipated world tour that will kick off on December 2 in Vancouver, the members of the biggest British girl group to ever come out in the 1990s almost stole the show from feathered and jiggly-bodied models on the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show held on Thursday.
The Spice Girls reunited and performed for the first time in almost 10 years. They performed one of their classic singles ‘Stop’ decked out in 1950s-style military outfits complete with male backup dancers. After a change of clothes and decades, the girls came out to perform their latest single ‘Headlines (Friendship Never Ends)’ decked out in 1930s evening gowns.
We’ve heard from the two Mels otherwise known as Sporty and Scary Spice, now it’s time to hear from Emma otherwise known as Baby Spice. Emma is the latest Spice Girl to blog on their official website.
In her entry, she talked about finally being in LA, how her son Beau was and the mad rush of paparazzi that greeted her when she arrived. She also talked about her excitement over the rehearsals and the tour itself. She even gushed about the merchandise they were going to put out which even includes some baby bits that she wants to get for Beau.
The Spice Girls’ newest single ‘Headlines (Friendship Never Ends) was played simultaneously by radio station across the UK yesterday morning. After the 30-second snippet that they used to tease fans a few days ago, it’s nice to hear the whole thing.
The song was written by Matt Rowe, Richard ‘Biff’ Stannard, Ginger and Baby. The pop girl group also made the video for the new single last Friday at Pinewood Studios. ‘Headlines (Friendship Never Ends) will be available digitally in the UK on November 5 and physically on November 19. It’s only a matter of time now and the world will once again be Spice World.
