South Park CD

Spice, Posh Spice

Virgin boss Chris Evans has leaked the news that Victoria has
gotten her role in the next 007 movie! This Bond movie will
be entitled "The World Is Not Enough." She is to play the
role of Holly Christmas, who helps 007 to foil a plot to blow
up the Millenium Dome. Shooting of the movie is to begin
early next year and Victoria is scheduled to join in just
after she has her child in February. She will have to go on
a fast fitness diet if she wants to ensure her role as Eon
Productions(Responsible for the movie) are already concerned
that her baby might affect plans for such a demanding role,
and may give her a different part. A source has said:
"The days of Bond Girls standing around in bikinis being
used as sex objects are over. They have to be a lot sassier
these days, and 24-year-old Victoria is politically correct.
She's smart, looks good in front of the cameras and is sexy
in a subtle way. It's also important to get some younger
moviegoers to see the film, and casting someone like her is
the perfect way to broaden its appeal." Despite the leak
from Chris Evans, a Eon spokeswoman said "Victoria Adams?
She's not a proven actress is she? Perhaps you should ask
Chris Evans, he seems to know more about the film than we
do."

Goodbye Cover

The part 2 Goodbye single cover has finally been decided on.
Part 2 will feature the single, live versions of Sisters, and
We Are Family. The winning entry was created by Siobhan
Cassidy of Croydon, Surrey. She is 15 years old. When asked
about the design she said: "I got the idea by thinking about
the girls waving goodbye in the back of the Spice bus. I
added snowflakes to give it a Christmassy feel and the storks
and the babies to represent Mel G's and Victoria's pregnancies.
My friends are jealous but proud. I'm a massive Spice Girls
fan." Here is the cover. Congratulations Siobhan.

Pregnancy Update

Victoria recently was interviewed by Des O'Conner and revealed
that she doesn't lift a finger around the house anymore. David
Beckham does all the work at this point, including cooking
and cleaning. Victoria also revealed that she cannot cook
at all and frequently eats TV Dinners! Victoria said:
"I am not very domesticated but David does everything. He is
brilliant, he cooks and cleans. I can't cook so I do
those ready-made meals that you just pierce the top and
stick in for three minutes." The Christmas special will air
on December 23rd.

Well it's been a long day, but here is the G2
version of the Goodbye video. It is very much better then
the previous Spice Universe version. It is smooth, audio
quality is many times better, no advertizements for anything
on it, no crap running across the bottom, and even 100k smaller.
Note that you do need the G2 version of RealPlayer to play it.
You can get this at www.real.com
This IS the version to get as Fellow Leo has
once again done a marvelous job at encoding this masterpiece.

South Park or not?

It has been previously reported that the Spice Girls will
have a track on the Chef Aid South Park album called
"Boyfriend, Girlfriend" that was allegedly recorded during
the US leg of the world tour. The album is due out on the
24th yet there is no mention of the Spice Girls track on any
of the sites that list who will be on it. Seems like this
may have just been a rumor or cut out or something, either
way it's not looking like it will be on it so far, but who
knows?

Goodbye Video

The new Spice Girls video for Goodbye will aparently be
played this week on MTV. This week is MTV's Spanking New
Music week where they play a video premier each day. It is
unknown which day the Goodbye video will be played but it
seems to appear in the promo for the spanking new music week
showing a 1 second clip of Emma singing. The video will be
either on wednesday, thursday, or friday, because today they
announced tomorrow's new video and it wasn't Spice Girls. The
show is at 4pm each day but the new video isn't played until
they finish the Total Request which is about 4.30.

Note: This is MTV USA Only.

MelC Solo CD

Mel C talked about her plans for a solo album during an
interview with Cosmopolitan magazine. She said that she is
sure that her working on her own album will spark more Spice
Girls break-up rumors, even though the girls have insisted
solo projects can run alongside the group. Mel C wore rather
non sporty clothing for this photo shoot. She said:
"Yes, I have my tomboyish side but I'm quite girlie. I'm
very shy and soft and incredibly tidy - my nickname is
Monica after the Friends character." Mel C also said she
hopes to cut her first album with help from Madonna. In
another more interesting comment Mel says "This will never
be over - oh, I didn't mean the Spice Girls, I mean my
career!" She also said "I have sort of met someone. His
name is Jake Davies and we met in a recording studio in
Dublin (he's a record producer). I think of myself as still
young, free and single and I know Jake won't be upset to
read that."

Spice Girls Win

Spice Girls won 2 awards last night at the MTV European
Video Music Awards! They won for Best Group(2nd year in a

They tied madonna for most awards won by an artist at this
year's award! Only Emma and Mel C were there to accept and
said thanks and hello to the other 2 who are obviously not
there due to pregnancy. Mel C after the second award
acceptance said "Spice Girls Forever!" Congrats girls!

Who Wrote It?

I was browsing the official Spice Girls site and i noticed
the new Goodbye single page -
http://c3.vmg.co.uk/spicegirls/nowspice/single/index.html
It has the lyrics and whatnot to the song and a 1 minute
sound clip but notice who the song is written by at the
bottom of the page. It says "Written By Spice Girls/Stannard/Rowe".
I thought that when the girls split from 19 management they
lost those song writers? I guess not. Also check out the
way different looking picture of the girls on that page!
Especially Mel B!

Victoria Talks

Victoria went into more details about her morning sickness
and how hard it was for her to carry on during the US leg of
the world tour. She is quoted as saying "I could have
pulled out but I didn't want to, because of the fans. We
were playing in 110 degrees and I was prancing about in a
PVC catsuit and throwing up at the side of the stage in a
bucket." Victoria also responded to claims that her
pregnancy out of wedlock sets a bad example for fans saying
"I haven't said, 'Go and get pregnant.' I'm happy and in a
stable relationship. Girl Power is about doing what you
want as long as you're sure about it yourself." She also
revealed plans that she wants to have a total of 3 children
with David Beckham.

Sorry (NOT SPICE NEWS)

Sorry about posting the last update 5 times. I have a crude
way of updating the news through the web as it is not my own

Sorry Again!

Lucky Boy, Unlucky Victoria

Victoria lost her credit card holder with credit cards in
County Hotel pub in Alderley Edge, Cheshire. A toddler
(Miles Kenyon) had spotted it while scourging around on the
floor and put it in his pocket. When the family got home
his father saw him playing with the envelope-shaped
container. The container is inscribed with "Dear Victoria,
all my love David, XXX." Mr. Kenyon realized that Victoria
must have dropped the container at the restaurant. He said
"I phoned the restaurant, left my name and address, and said
I'd bring round the case and five credit cards inside. But
before I set off, Victoria rang us asking where we lived."
At 11:20pm Victoria and David arrived at the family's home
in Stockport. Mr. Kenyon said "They took the case and said
thanks before driving off in a Range Rover." Victoria's
spokeswoman said: "She was very grateful to the family and
the little boy."
