I don't think they should release any singles though, if it did not get to number 1 it'd mean that TWO of their singles didn't make it!

They can't release an album off the back of no single. :o even if it's a GH.

with downloads release that before the physical it will storm to #1 even before the X Factor has had a sniff

Mel C gives Spice Girls go-ahead

Melanie C embarked on a solo career after the Spice Girls split up

 

Singer Melanie C has given the green light for a reunion of the Spice Girls.

"For the first time ever, there is some truth in the rumours... it could happen," she told BBC London 94.9.

 

But the singer, also known as Sporty Spice, said it would just be for "a very short space of time... a final goodbye" and a thank you to fans.

 

It is thought ex-bandmates Emma Bunton, Victoria Beckham, Mel B and Geri Halliwell had already agreed to reunite but Melanie C had resisted until now.

 

The singer, whose real name is Melanie Chisholm, said she admired Take That, who have enjoyed renewed success since they got back together last year.

 

But she added, "it would be really dangerous to think you could just follow in their footsteps because I think that's unique, what has happened to Take That".

The Spice Girls were one of the UK's most popular acts

 

She added that she had always said she didn't want to get the band back together because "it was amazing, it was magical. We could never recreate it".

 

"But this year people have been talking about it and some of the girls have expressed an interest in doing it."

 

"I don't want to be the person that stops it happening or stops it being a five-piece," she told the radio station."

 

Solo careers

 

It is rumoured the band are planning six live shows around the world with gigs in London, Tokyo and Las Vegas, to support their Greatest Hits album which comes out later this year.

 

They are likely to begin rehearsing for the shows in L.A. after Bunton gives birth to her first baby later this summer.

 

The Spice Girls were one of the most successful pop acts in British history, with a string of number ones starting with 1996's Wannabe.

 

Geri Halliwell was the first to leave the band in 1998, walking out while the group were on a European tour.

 

The Spice Girls released another album but finally split in 2000, with the participants all going on to solo careers with varying degrees of success.

 

 

personally i think when they do they need to do a proper tour, i mean i live in the midlands and would find it so hard - and expensive to go to london for a concert (i would if i have to tho) i think they should do the main concert venues in the uk and america and the odd one in other countries.

 

After all they were biggest in the U.K. Please do more than one concert plz plz plz lol

What exactly did she say about being loaded? What was the question?!
But of course she's loaded. I imagine in royaltys she earns over 1million each year.

They'd been discussing whether people who aren't married should have rights to pre-nup sort of things if they choose not to get married but live together, and Mel said that she's been living with her boyfriend for 5 years and she's loaded, and wouldn't like to think if they split up he'd get it all!

Teletext.co.uk

 

The Spice Girls are set to make £25m from a TV documentary to coincide with their expected reunion.

 

The two-hour special is likely to be sold to over 100 countries and net at least £40m for 19 TV - the company run by the band's boss Simon Fuller.

 

The Sun reports that the show will make each girl about £5m (on top of the £10m each from the tour itself), with Mel B, Mel C, Victoria, Geri and Emma talking about the past.

 

If true are you looking forward to this?

Spice Girls to reveal all on TV?

Wednesday, June 27 2007, 10:28 BST

Digitalspy.com By Nick Levine, Entertainment Reporter

 

The Spice Girls are reportedly planning to star in a TV show about their career.

 

The pop five-piece, who will make an announcement about their future plans tomorrow, are said to be following in Take That's footsteps by revealing all on a primetime documentary.

 

Take That - For The Record, an examination of the Brit award-winning boyband's career, aired on ITV in November 2005, drawing over seven million viewers.

 

A source told The Sun: "There have been ongoing discussions about doing a documentary looking back at the beginning, the height of Spicemania and what happened towards the end.

 

"It will be full-on nostalgia and a look back at living through those amazing years. It will focus on the Spice Girls as they were, not what individuals are up to now.

 

"If you thought the Take That documentary was big, you ain't seen nothing yet. Let's not forget they were, and still are, the biggest girl band ever. They even managed to crack America."

I was reading this on teletaxt earlier im sure they will all love getting this money money like this would pay for all melc c's record company plus help her do a few more solo albums
