Posted October 12, 200717 yr Westlife's Kian Egan has claimed that the Spice Girls are running scared over a chart battle with his band. Both pop acts' new albums were originally due to be released on November 5, but the Spice Girls have now pushed back their Greatest Hits collection one week. Egan claims he is particularly disappointed by the decision because he would take great enjoyment in getting one over on Mel C. He told the Mirror: "We would take great pleasure in beating the Spice Girls - especially Mel C because every time she opens her mouth something mean comes out. "Our album (Back Home) is good, we've worked hard on it and it would have been good to go head-to-head with their one. "As far as we were concerned, we were going up against them and we were up for it. But then they suddenly changed their minds. They're running scared." The last time both groups released albums simultaneously, the Spice Girls' Forever only sold 71,000 copies, while Westlife's Coast To Coast totalled 234,000 copies. DIGITALSPY.COM Westlife are so DULL compared to the girls - his just trying to get some press to promote them more before the album
October 12, 200717 yr :rofl: the Spice Girls would trample all over them :smoke: Are Westlife jetting off on a sell out world tour soon? I think not ^_^ they just moved the date to save Westlife their blushes ^_^
October 12, 200717 yr Spice girls would have won. plus they moved it back so that it was close to the children in need single date
October 12, 200717 yr honestly, yeah the spice girls would have won Just because they aint bringing out an album with dull covers LOL!! but they are also better
October 12, 200717 yr I thought the Spice Girls postponed the release of the album by a week, because of Melanie B being very likely to be still participating in the final week of Dancing With Stars. Otherwise they'd have to do promo as a four-piece (ie. like Girls Aloud whenever Nadine has been in America with her Desparate Housewives starring boyfriend).
October 12, 200717 yr Author I would of brought 4 copies just to see Westlife not get to no1 lol not that I would need too they would sell more anyway
