Emma's Trip in Platform
Shoes 3/June |
| The taller
you are the harder you fall, so learnt Emma after tripping over as
she ran out of a studio in Turkey. At the time she was wearing her 4
inch platform shoes which resulted in her fall, sprained ankle and
badly buised and bandaged wrist. Her mum gave her some painkillers
which knocked her out for the night. |

|
Tubby Spice Weekend Fun 12/May |
| Geri made
news over the weekend after pinching Prince Charles bottom. The
Prince felt rather foolish and embarrassed but I bet he secretly
enjoyed it! For the second time a leading UK newspaper criticised
Geri for having "an extra helping of flesh" after flashing
her stomach at photographers while posing at the Cannes Film
Festival. They renamed her Tubby Spice. [picture] |

911 Calls Spice Bluff 29/Apr |
| Boy band 911 said they
were originally offered the song "Say You'll Be There" a
year ago, just before anyone had heard of the Spice Girls. They
turned it down as it wasn't right for their image at the time,
although they said it was a great song, it went to the Spice Girls a
few months later. Does this mean, according to the report, the Spice
Girls didn't write the song for which they are credited? |
|
Emma's Ex Betrays Her 22/Apr |

years who split with her last month now wants to sell his story for

think how she'd react to this." Mark promised Emma he would
never to tell. |

|
Victoria's New Love 12/Apr |
| Posh Spice has fallen
for Manchester United's midfield player, David Beckham. Maybe that
should be the other way around? David is missing her so much that he
keeps calling her from abroad. What does Victoria like about this
top football player? His Gucci shoes of course! (And he doesn't wear
socks with them!) |
|
Candid Spice Cameras! 11/Apr |

The Power of Five 30/Mar |
| Britain's
5th TV channel was kicked off by the Spice Girls and their
new theme song for Ch 5, called "1,
2, 3, 4, 5". The lyrics are purely commercial as expected, but
otherwise the girls looked great dressed in the bright sassy colours
of Ch5. Emma pressed the button at 6pm launching the channel. |
