Spice Girls Reunite For A World Tour, Ask That You Say You'll Be There

We know, after Sebadoh got together and took it on the road this year it was like what's next, the Spice Girls?! From your lips to Vic Beckham's breast implants. Here they are, in their own words... (via BV)


So, brace yourself, the Girls may be coming to a country near you! But first, let's talk about those nicknames, yeah? Sure they helped 'em sell 55 billion records in years past, but ... Sporty, Posh, Ginger, Baby, Scary ... the names don't really fit the gals in '07, right? They've been plenty busy since those halcyon "Wannabe" days. Using what you know of their post-Spice exploits, got some new monikers for the ladies? Baby's gotta be Prego Spice, no? Mull that over, take the jump for tour dates and a pic of the girls playing with flags.

12/07 - Los Angeles
12/08 - Las Vegas
12/11 - New York
12/15 -London
12/20 - Koln
12/23 - Madrid
01/10 - Beijing
01/12 - Hong Kong
01/17 - Sydney
01/20 - Cape Town
01/24 - Buenos Aires

Baby Spice = The Only One Who Is Still Hot Unless You're Hammered and Then Sporty Is Still Kind of Doable Spice

Does anyone else think that "Posh" spice looks like 'Zira' from "Planet of the Apes" with cannon balls for breast implants? She looks rough! 'Sporty' got hot and a non-pregnant 'Baby' was looking good for a while. The other two were 'hung up wet' a looong time ago. Can't wait for more shitty music...Fist Power!

Simon - YES! I thought I was the only one that was sure a busted-up Chan somehow snuck into that picture.

spice women doesn't have the same ring.

posh has seriously crossed over into fembot territory and I can only pray that her "seek and destroy" features have been neutralized.

dear ginger: that is the most unflattering dress on god's green earth.

everyone else: carry on

This summer, Keri Russell *is* Strawberry Shortcake.

I like how the tour starts on Pearl Harbor Day. Infamy, indeed.

Aw, no 'Before' pic of the gals?
I was gonna say Sporty's got a Feist thing going on, but yes, Chan Marshall is more like it.

Baby's still the best looking one there.

Simon, did you ever stop to think that maybe Chan is, instead, actually a high-end Sporty Spice? Think about it, won't you?

Anyway, I'm stoked. The Girls helped give me my first "stirrings," back in the day. I remember it well, and fondly. Bring it on, ladies. Frankly, they all still look very good to me... Although, Mrs. Beckham's are more than a little intimidating. They look like they could go off at any moment.

Needless to say, I meant to type "Mrs. Beckham's breasts". I failed.

i missed out on seeing them live when i was in elementary school. i'm definitely going to try to see them this time around because, as much as they have changed now or as musically untalented as they were back then, i want to reminisce too!

Ginger was a lot hotter when she was a fatty and her boobs bursted out of her cleavage.

£10 million each?! Sounds like a better reason to get back together than just to be with the rest of them.

The only semi-happy reminder this post and video brings up is the day that I was noseying around Simon Fuller's office and meeting the hot secretarys of '19'.

Anyway, why are people so excited about this? Can't understand why people want to re-live their "band".

Good Christ, what's next? The mark of the beast? Oceans of blood? What did I do wrong to miss the Rapture and have to face... face... THIS?!

Seriously. Victoria looks like she's vying for the George Hamilton Melanoma prize, and the tumors are busting out already!
