SPICE GIRLS : GIVING YOU EVERYTHING REVIEW
Geri in Spice Girls : Giving You Everything
The first airing of Spice Girls : Giving You Everything (The girls official documentary) was in Australia today, and being Australian I am happy to tell you all about it!
It starts at the 02 on June 28, 2007 as the girls get ready for the Press Conference and the girls each explain a little about life before Spice. The girls then each tell bits and peices about life in the Spice Girls and the main Spice events like Istanbul, Wannabe going to #1 and sacking Simon. They also each give some info on how they felt about Geri leaving. Geri tells how painful it was to watch the girls do Wembley without her. The girls also tell how exhausted they got not having any time off. They didn't really talk about the supposed "split" in 2001, though Melanie C did say that by 2000 she didn't want to be a Spice Girl anymore.

Finally, at the end it focuses again on the 02 on June 28, 2007 and the girls all coming in one at a time - Mel comes in with Angel and Geri grabs her (Angel)! they show some footage of rehersals (where Emma's son Beau makes a cameo as does Cruz) and finally backstage in Vancouver getting ready to go on - and it ends with the girls on stage in Vancouver as the girls start the show.

WEBMASTER NOTE: This is an absolutely amazing doco - it's an emotional rollercoaster, so when it airs in your area, make sure you don't miss it!

FOXTEL TO AIR PAY PER VIEW OF ROTSG TOUR IN 2008
While waiting for Spice Girls : Giving You Everything to start I saw an ad on Fox 8 advertising a Pay Per View of the Return Of The Spice Girls Tour in early 2008. That's all the info at the moment - and some speculate that it could be of the girls gig in Australia. We'll find out in due time I suppose, and I'll let you all know.

The Girls on stage at The Staples Centre (7/12/07)
The Spice Girls took to the stage in Los Angeles again tonight to perform the 4th gig on their tour. According to the Spice Girls Official Site celebrities including 2 Pussycat Dolls,
Arnold Scwarzenegger & Kate Beckingsale were in the audience.

Fans went into a spin - and bump watch - when, as the girls were performing Wannabe, some fans though it looked & sounded like Geri announced another pregnancy when, instead of her 'Easy V doesn't come for free, she's a real lady" Geri said what sounded like "cause she's having another baby" or something similar. A lot of fans now say it's "Cause she's Mrs Beckham" or something similar.

A stir was caused again when Geri and Melanie B swore during their "Wannabe" lines:

MB: "Yo, I'll tell you what I want, what I really fucking want."

G:
"So tell me what you want, what you motherfucking want."

MB:
"I'll tell you what I want, what I really fucking want."

Gi:
"So tell me what you want, what you really really want."

Another great show for the girls.

Next stop Las Vegas!
