LONDON, UK (Hollywood Today) 3/13/07 — "Many twenty-somethings will admit to an adolescent Spice Girls fixation but almost a decade later will those same fans buy tickets to see them live?
Apparently, Spice Girls manager Simon Fuller thinks so as he announced an upcoming six-month tour he has been trying to arrange for seven years.
“The Spice Girls will come back with a big bang. They will do a whirlwind tour for six months and then be gone again,” he said.
“Sporty Spice,” Melanie Chisholm, was the last spice girl holding out on the idea until yesterday. ”All of the girls are up for it. The reunion will definitely happen,” he said.
It was not immediately evident how member Posh Spice, Victoria Beckham, will make time for a tour. She is contracted to NBC to produce a reality show about her move to Los Angeles this summer with soccer star husband David Beckham, also under contract, to the Los Angeles Galaxy team. The couple have four children as well.
Selling 53 million albums worldwide, the Spice Girls, made up of Chisholm, Geri Halliwell, Victoria Beckham, Melanie Brown, and Emma Bunton were one of the most successful girl groups of all time. They also starred in the film “Spiceworld” which grossed $75 million worldwide."
Things that make you go ...hmmm. Can you see the cat fights now? "Everyone just wants to see Posh!" Go figure. But... Coco Scene Moms just "might" by a ticket...
Toodles.
