Victoria has turned into that snooty woman with the toff kids that the Spice Girls harrass at the beginning of the Wannabe video. Miserable looking woman.

Cant wait for the music though! Geri was a good laugh when she asked Victoria if she was "buzzing" and then says "Yay Victoria's buzzing, woohoo!" almost in a sarcastuc, banterish way lol

What's this doing in Music? Shouldn't it be in Showbiz?

There is a video here which covers the story of the musical and you know what it looks really good.

http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/ne...al-launch.html

I can see this being made into a movie.

This does look brilliant, regardless...it looks brilliant having the 5 of them lined up there and Jen of course

and i dont care if Vic looks "unhappy/unsmiley" its her trademark ...and she looks stunning, they all look great tbh! And love the use of the staircase there too

Mel B and Victoria don't get on with each other and look awkward.

I thought Mel B and Victoria had gotten close when they both lived in the US? Also wasn't Victoria really supportive of Mel B when Eddie Murphy was denying that he was the father of her daughter

Anyhow I think I will go and see this. With Jennifer Saunders involved it should be good.

They aren't "back".

A musical being produced using their songs where they turn up to promote it is not really a reunion as a photo op to flog some tangential tat they have barely been involved in. They aren't acting in it, they don't sing the songs, not a single character is based off of them... Hell, they didn't write their own songs to begin with, so this is basically a glorification of completely creatively bankrupt dancers and their production team that actually made something out of nothing. Why Simon Fuller is not getting full credit for taking drama school graduates, a glamour model and some loud athletic women and making them a brand rather than these harridans trying to pedal wares they never made yet again in another package is beyond me.

I'm pretty sure noone claimed Queen were back when We Will Rock You debuted. Common sense is in dwindling supply it seems.

That is one of the most awkward looking photoshoots I've ever seen. They clearly can't stand each other and would rather be ANYWHERE else. Hardly a positive endorsement for the musical when the people who inspired it look like that.

Always love it when a DS member comes on and writes the longest post of the thread about why they DONT like so & so - there's a sweet kind of irony about it

Stating the obvious shouldn't be needed to begin with.

I am sorry you find 7 lines of writing so taxing to read and consider that amount of writing to be long. I am able to read books comfortable and enjoy doing so and consider that amount of writing to be quite brief. I hope you get some help for your ADD so you can enjoy lengthier pieces of writing and enjoy them rather than finding them taxing and "long".

What a day!

Literally felt every emotion under the sun. Pride, joy, excitement.... sadness, frustration, STRESS!

Bad feeling about some of tomorrow's press....

Wish people could focus on what a genuinely AMAZING show Judy, Jennifer, Geri, Melanie, Emma and the team have put together rather than the negatives. Of which there were a few today unfortunately.

But hey. At the moment, more people are trying to get tickets for Viva Forever than Nicki Minaj's forthcoming tour.

And Spice Girls and Viva Forever have been trending Worldwide all day.

Follow this, you bitches!

Didn't they Co- write a lot of their songs though?

Just goes to show that, for all the hate they get (and they get a lot in the UK especially lol) their loyal fanbase will support them.

Viva Spice Girls!!!
