"The Spice Girls have
confirmed Britain's position as
leaders of the music industry,
after hitting the number one spot
in the American charts with their

than the water or electronic

SPICE
GIRLS TO BECOME SUGAR LUMPS!
|
It seems
that the Spice Girls are busy
with Comic Relief and singing!
Well, in the tabloids, there were
clips showing the forthcoming MTV
video of Who Do You Think You
Are. As it was described, its
about five girls who dream that
they want to be like the Spice
Girls, and when they are older,
their dreams come true. It ends
with them on stage with the
Spice's, and they call themselves
the Sugar Lumps! The Sugar Lumps
themselves have an image to
maintain and so dress up as the
Spice's. Dawn French is Victoria,
Lulu is Emma, Kathy Burke is Mel
C, Jennifer Saunders is Geri, and
finally Llewella Gideon (Star of
The Real McCoy) is Mel B.

COMIC
SPICE
|
When a
new group call themselves the
Sugar Lumps, you can't help
thinking they're just jumping on
a bandwagon. But the motives of
this new quintet - including
comics Jennifer Saunders, Dawn
French and Kathy Burke - are
entirely honourable. They're
teaming up with the Spice Girls
to make the official Red Nose Day
single Who Do You Think You Are?

The Spice

station (102.7 KIIS FM) had them
down at Billboard Live on Sunset

were approximately 200 people

GERI'S
PAST AS A DANCER
|
|
When
Geri was 18, she used to
earn extra cash by
working as a go-go dancer
in one of the hottest
clubs in Magaluf.
Writhing behind the steel
bars, she had hundreds of
holidaying lads drooling
as she barely contained
herself within a G-string
and tassle-top, leaving
very little to the
imagination. Pals who
aslo danced at the BCM
club recalled how Geri,
then a blonde, loved to
flaunt her body and be
the centre of |
| attention.
One said "It was
erotic and a bit seedy as
well. But Geri certainly
didn't mind. She wasn't
one of the best dancers,
but made up for it
because she loved to show
her body, even though she
wasn't in as good a shape
as she is now." |
