They’re coming Right Back At Ya. All 5 Spice Girls together again. 4 become 5.
Each Spice Girl said they were unlikely to reform. Particularly Melanie C, who as recent as the April had said she wouldn't. The christening of Geris daughter, Bluebell, appeared to be the clincher.
They were meant to get together for Live8, July 2005. The hold up was Mel B, because she was in California working. Instead people were treated to Madonna, Mariah and Dido (The Adele of her day). More forgotten heros of the time: Ms Dynamite and Joss Stone
Mel C was pretty shady about it on Anne Robinsons talk show. Mel B would give a glimmer of hope by confirming their will be an album, full of new tracks and it was inevitable the girls would get back together. But we would have to wait two more years.
28th June 2007 – Announced world tour outside of Londons O2 Arena. Lets talk looks.
Announce world tour – initially 11 dates. Dates sold out and they added an additional 16 dates. Grossed over $70million dollars
Victoria Beckham turned down a spot in the Sex and the city sequel because of touring. Geri must have been furious.
This was followed by a Greatest Hits CD in November.
Best selling girlband album of 2007, but beaten to the top by – can you guess it? Leona Lewis debut. Only made number 93 in America due to a clerical issue with retailer Victorias Secret, who weren’t registered for soundscan. Despite selling 600,000 copies in those stores alone.
VB – Mummy was a popstar.
I love a liner note – not as much as Mel B, who didn’t have room on the page so wrote an additional section on her website. (Don’t read it Karen – she doesn’t get all her yours right).
Supported by new single “Headlines (Friendship never ends).
THE VIDEO
In America, the album was only released through Victoria Secret stores, in line with their performance at the Victorias Secret Lingerie Show.
