If Mel provides the gritty ins and outs of the conflict behind Reason I would have more interest in purchasing the book.

An Evening with Melanie C

Fri 16 Sep 2022, 19:30, Barbican Hall, London



For the first time ever, Melanie C, aka Sporty Spice, will tell her amazing life story in her own words, live on stage at the Barbican. “I never told my story before because I wasn’t ready. Now I am.”

In conversation to celebrate the publication of her autobiography, Who I Am: My Story, Melanie will give a full and honest account of her life in pop group sensation, The Spice Girls. Beginning in her bedroom in the North-West of England dreaming of performing on stage, Melanie will consider the meteoric rise of The Spice Girls, from a collection of singers brought together by an ad in the paper to a worldwide sensation that would spread the message of Girl Power to stadiums around the world.

Taking in the incredible highs of becoming one of the world’s most recognisable popstars – playing at Wembley, conquering the BRITs, closing the Olympics – Melanie will also talk openly about the difficult lows.

This is the ultimate Spice Girls fan event, sharing Melanie’s incredible story of resilience, hope and how you can find your power.

I hate that cover as do most fans.
Hopefully her team change it like they did for stages!

The cover is now confirmed by Melanie's social media:


It’s taken me a long time to feel ready to properly tell my story. Finally, I am!
Pre-orders are open now, follow my #LINKINBIO @welbeckpublish #whoiammystory #melaniecbook

I wouldn't go as far as to say I hate it but I feel like there surely must have been a better shot to use?

13 weeks to go!

I'm not a huge fan of the leaning towards the camera angle as it throws her proportions off and makes her head look huge, but hey ho, that's just me.

Terrible cover, what is she wearing, why is she doing a sat on the loo pose, why is her hair slightly blonde so she looks nothing like the Melanie C most people recognise?

Any way hope the content is better than the cover. Everything about this book so far feels like Mel doesn't really want to do it.

She looks bored in the picture, which is such a bad USP

Normally with something like this all the cover and profile pics on social media would change to the pic and release date. I really think she didn't want to do this book till she was say 60 and could be totally honest. This feels like it will be watered down coming out now.

Calm down, I doubt she was forced to do it because she was broke. Granted, her management probably pushed her to put one one out, but ultimately I don't doubt it was anyone but her decision.

Emma is notorious for not remembering any detail. Hers would be very much 'Me and the girls were pissed in some country, maybe France or Australia, when we were promoting Holler off our first album Spice. Any way Mel B cut the label out my baby doll dress and my boobs fell out in rehersals as she cut the fabric too, or was it Mel C, maybe it was Spain'
