Spice Girls 1997


SpiceGirls 2007

28JUNE2007, THE SPICE GIRLS all lined-up together as a five-piece for the first time in nine years today as they announced their comeback plans.
The group will play an 11-date world tour across six continents - starting in Los Angeles on December 7 - to 'say Goodbye' to fans.
And even footballing superstar DAVID BECKHAM - VICTORIA's hubby - will join the tour.
But the girls dismissed rumours they would be performing at this weekend's Concert For Diana - because EMMA BUNTON is due to give birth at any minute.
Not since the departure of GERI HALLIWELL in May 1998 have all the girls been pictured together.
Geri summed it up by saying: "Imagine you got divorced and you've got back together with your ex-husband."
Joking about how Geri left the band, Victoria said: "We've forgiven her."
The girls showed off their new grown-up look as they met to reveal details of their multi-million pound reunion tour.
At the press conference at London's O2 Arena, hosted by actor RICHARD E. GRANT, they said they will release a greatest hits album at Christmas.
And Victoria admitted David would tour with the group during a break from playing for LA Galaxy.
She said: "He's going to be on tour with the kids and all of our families. He's so excited about us getting back together."My main reason for doing this is for my kids - so they can see what mummy used to do.
"I'm going to be the cool one in the family for once!''
Geri put straight reports they would be launching their comeback at Wembley on Sunday.
Although PRINCES WILLIAM and HARRY did ask the band to take part in the concert for their late mum, it's not possible because of Emma.
Geri said: "The thing is we have a very heavily pregnant lady here so we can't do it. Her waters could break at any minute."
And Mel C added: "We would have loved to be there this weekend. It's just unfortunate timing."
The girls also spoke about their world tour later this year.
They promised to sing all their hits on the tour, which takes in LA, Las Vegas, New York, London, Germany, Spain, China, Australia, South Africa and Argentina.
They are also filming a tell-all documentary to accompany their comeback.
Geri said: "It's going to be the most honest story that you've ever heard. You get to see the dark side of the Spice Girls, the gritty side, the tears."
But the girls said it wasn't a case of Viva Forever for the band - the comeback was strictly a 'one-off'.
"This is going to be a one-night stand," said Geri.

Wow... ginger spice got OLD! @_@ everyone else aged well... but you can't really tell with posh, she doesnt look real... actually, when did she ever look real?

[Ladyy]

Hmm I think they look better now than they did back in 1997.
I really like that blonde girl's short hair in the second pic!

[chocopocky]

Maybe because it was the fashion that changed.
They still look just as sassy as before!

[july-eighth]

They still look great as ever! It amuses me though is that Geri still wears clothes that really standout from the others.

If they decide to release a CD again, I'll so buy it! Too bad the closest concert to where I live is in LA...

They all have gained weight over the years, except for Victoria...She's gone down a size or two...Or three...And it looks like her boobs are going to pop out any minute. I don't know how I feel about this, I haven't heard any of the sing or seen them perform in ages.
