The Spice Girls’s Soufflé Just Wont Rise Twice!
Wasn’t it Johnny Mathis and Deniece Williams who sang, ‘Guess its over, time to call it a day…..?’ Well that’s the advice The Spice Girls should take as they toddle off into the sunset and before they ever consider mounting another reunion tour for which there is no demand!
It’s a bit like trying to rekindle a ‘dead in the water’ relationship, the soufflé just wont rise twice!
But reunions seem the be the fashion lately, we have Take That with Gary Barlow and Mark Owen reuniting and, to their credit, pulling it off with great success and an album packed with new material. The Eagles got it back together in 2007 with their first new album since the 1980’s that is receiving plenty of air time and enjoying success. And then there’s The Spice Girls, with nothing but a sad old 2008 calendar and an album full of tracks that should never have been released nine years ago, never mind now, when the world has moved on. This certainly was one reunion too many!
With no demand for them to reunite the reason for their decision still remains a myth to most of us. Some gave them the benefit of the doubt, some told the truth and said they could never be the same. They were right. The aging 1990’s starlets were worse.
The reason for Victoria Beckham putting herself back out there cant possibly be anything to do with money, she has more money than God! But one would have thought by now that she must have reconciled herself to the fact that her music career was over long before it even began! Did the ‘stick thin wanna be’ not have enough on her plate with her attempts to establish some kind of career in Hollywood?
The other three have produced between them four kids and not a father or husband in site so a few million in the chequing account might help them through the next few years along with cheesy TV commercials and reality show appearances.
That’s real Girl Power!
Maybe they would have improved the concept of The Spice Girl reunion if they’d left their totally inappropriate names from the past, in the past.
Take Baby Spice! She is about as close to her baby weight as Rosie ODonnell is to winning the next Miss World pageant!
Posh Spice has demonstrated since the mid 1990’s that she is as Posh as Tupperware bowl at a Buckingham Palace garden party.
Scary Spice, well she has exceeded her past scariness with ever expanding hips and mouth!
Ginger Spice! Well what can be said about a woman who has attempted everything from a solo career, a goodwill ambassador for the UNFPA to Playboy cover girl, but with no success or longevity in anything she undertakes.
Melanie Chisholm, known as Mel C and Sporty Spice, is the only remaining Spice Girl with anything resembling a musical career and now she has probably completely jeopardized it and done more damage than good for her performing future. Her sporty days were definitely over on this tour as she shuffled around the stage looking distinctly disinterested in the proceedings and wishing she could just get home and get a grip on her rapidly disappearing career.
Hiding the most probable reason for the premature and abrupt end to their world tour as poor ticket sales, the flagging quartet have sited the reason as their need to return to their families who they were missing, (but in most photos beamed across the Internet they had their families firmly in tow).
Yep, it’s a given, they have no more style, talent, appeal or chance of making it in the world of music now than they did back in the 1990’s.
In the end they are just a posse of has beens with kids trying to look sexy and sassy but actually making the six guys from The Full Monty appear far more professional, attractive and talented.

Get this jerk away from me!
Times are quiet right now for Pamela Anderson. No more Playboy shoots, no more Baywatch, no more magic shows, so, it must be time for a divorce, or at least an annulment anyway!
With too much time on her hands and little publicity right now Pammie is gaining minor media attention with the announcement that she’s seeking an annulment after just a few months of marriage to Rick Salomon, ex-beau of Paris Hilton.
Anderson married, poker player Rick in October last year and by December she was running for the divorce courts. Working as an illusionist’s assistant for Hans Klok’s in his spectacular magic show in Las Vegas, has obviously helped Anderson with her experience of making husband’s disappear. So far she has got rid of Tommy Lee and Kid Rock.
Salomon himself is no stranger to broken marriages either. He was previously married to Shannen Doherty and actress Elizabeth Daily.
Anderson filed paperwork last Friday in Los Angeles Superior Court, citing “fraud” as the reason for the annulment.
So, with that done, its on to her next project. Finding yet another husband!
Check back for an announcement of a summer wedding!
Its about time Pammie got herself a hobby to amuse her in her old age, macramé, knitting, needlepoint, anything to keep her occupied and away from the registrar’s office.

The frozen faced Aussie couldn’t help herself at this weekend’s Oscar Awards ceremony even during the live telecast. We may remember a pregnant Gwyneth Paltrow pulling a similar move while pregnant with (rarely photographed) baby boy Moses just years ago.
It appears that in Hollywood alcohol is completely acceptable for pregnant women while socializing. Unfortunately we attack Britney Spears for drinking within days of seeing her kids while we let Nicole off the hook for boozing it up with her unborn child?
Alcohol is in fact the leading known preventable cause of mental and physical birth defects in the United States.
So shame on you Nicole! Especially noting that your husband is a recovering addict who recently relapsed!
