A few years ago all the rage in fashion was 70’s and then 80’s inspired looks, and now after more than 9 years since splitting, the quintessential 90’s pop band, The Spice Girls are back. Oh shit!
Yes, Scary, Baby, Ginger, Posh and Sporty are set to make a comeback and introduce themselves to a new generation of uber cool 00’s kids, after a press conference in London.

The tour dates are as follows:

2008

The girls promised to perform all their classic hits during the show.
But they refused a challenge to sing live at the press conference in response to a report that their voices will be digitally enhanced on the tour.
“We don’t need to prove anything,” Mel C said.
The tour will be supported by a documentary which claims it will show the definitive story of the Spice Girls.
Halliwell 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.”
“I like to think our songs are universal and they are timeless. Hopefully, the young’uns will like it too,”Geri Halliwell,the oldest of the group gushed.
They sold more than 55 million records around the world, and even starred in a film, Spice World, after forming in 1994.
