The Return of the Spice Girls Again?

Today’s top gossip:

The Spice Girls are rumoured to be reforming to open the London 2012 Olympic Games, according to reports. The girl group's manager Simon Fuller said the time frame of the games would be perfect for a reunion to take place, adding that the band want to perform again before they are too old. "They will not want to be performing hits like 'Wannabe' in their 40s, but it's amazing how often people talk about another reunion. And I think if they do it, it's going to be in 2012," he explained. London 2012's opening ceremony is set to feature a gig showcasing some of Britain's most famous acts, according to organisers, and Fuller thinks The Spice Girls would be perfect for the event. "They stand for so much in British music history and I can't think of a better time for them to get back together for another performance. The demand for them as a band is as strong as ever" (Daily Mirror).

After weeks of hinting about another reunion, reports out of the UK confirm the Spice Girls are getting back together, but they won’t be going on tour.

Instead, the ladies of Girl Power will star in a reality show in which they’ll cast actresses to play them in a musical.

The TV show appeals to the Spices (who all have family commitments) since it won’t involve much traveling, says the UK’s Sun newspaper.

The idea for the new show is to audition girls to play Sporty, Scary, Ginger, Posh and Baby in a theater production in London’s West End.

The real Spice ladies - Mel C, Mel B, Geri Halliwell, Victoria Beckham and Emma Bunton — will sit on the panel, judging contestants and giving them advice.

“This is an idea which appeals to all of the original members,” says a source.

“The girls would have to work intensely on a TV show for a short period of time,” the source adds, “but they then launch a musical which could run for months or even years. It will take on a life of its own.”
