QUOTE(Scene @ 18th May 2024, 05:51 PM)  Omg what??!! How did I not know this! Yes the original line up was: 1. Victoria (lead vocal) 2. Melanie B 3. Geri 4. Melanie L 5. Michelle Then Melanie L was dropped and it became: 1. Victoria (still lead vocal who knows???) 2. Melanie B 3. Geri 4. Melanie C 5. Michelle Then they booted out / Michaelle chose to go to Uni, look after a sick relative, didn't think they'd make it... the various excuses parroted out and it was: 1. Victoria 2. Mel B 3. Geri 4. Melanie C 5. Emma I've always wondered what would have happened had those 5 particular girls not been in the band, would they have hit the heights they did? |

I thought Geri joined after Mel C? Didn't she miss the original audition because she was away?

QUOTE(spiceboy @ 18th May 2024, 09:35 PM) Wow!!!!   Having watched tonnes of their early days' clips, I could never understand why she was named "scary". Who felt so small around her that they had to nickname her scary? Of course the name stuck, so over the years, I noticed she accepted/adopted that persona. I'd say Geri was more talkative than Melanie B. |

We don't know the personalities of the other girls, but I feel that part of why the final lineup worked was that there was a good mix of dominant personalities (Geri &Mel B) and the not so dominant ones. If they were five Geris and/or Mel Bs, it would have crashed from the get-go. But they needed those two to steal demos and push boundaries in a way that made them the force they were. |
