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'

Yikes.. the US title. I can understand why the try to use the Spice reference as much as possible but still "my life as as Spice Girl"? I think the book is about a lot more things.

Haha. It's looks like a committee of people took about 30 seconds to come up with that title.

"The Sporty One"? Oof

At least it should help boost a few more sales as collectors will buy both for the difference in title / cover. I would have done back when I was collecting.

I'm sure lunch was provided during said meeting, and took longer to get through than coming up with the title.

It is a good title. In the US the girls are more known by their nicknames. Are you able to come up with a better title? teresa.gif

I don’t see anything wrong with the title to be honest 🤷‍♂️ if anything it would probably be better over here too. I do prefer Who I Am though I love how much she clearly loves that song (rightfully so it’s fantastic)

I dont have an issue with The Sporty One to be honest, as most people will be interested in her perspective of her life which revolves around a lot on her being Sporty, even if she spent 20 years trying to avoid that lol

About Who I Am, it is a great song, a very Melanie C one and it suits her well too. Either are fine in my opinion. The problem is that damn cover which is just not very nice lol

"Which book are we brainstorming today Yvonne? The Sporty one?"

"Perfect. Pass me the sushi."

I agree the book cover is pretty terrible... then again only Mel B has a decent cover out of them all, Victoria's is ok I guess.

I just cant get over that cover. That amazing shoot she did for Women's Health mag was what I would have expected for the cover.
