Their story:

In 1994, their was an ad in a british newpaper saying they need women ages 18-26  for a singing group. Hundreds of women showed up.
The people that were chosen were of course Victoria, Mel C, Mel B, Geri, And Michelle. They were originally called Touch (But actually, the group was going to be 3 men and 2 women! Not a lot of people know that, but it is true!).

Geri was not chosen for her singing skills, She was chosen because of her attitude and of course looks! In fact, they made Geri take singing lessons!

Mel C was chosen for her amazing singing voice and rhythm.

Michelle was chosen for her great singing.

Mel B was chosen for her rapping skills, looks, singing.

Victoria was chosen for her amazing dancing skills, looks and good singing voice.

After a while, they realized Michelle didn't have the attitude to be in the group, she wasn't outgoing and fun. She decided to leave the group and go on to college.

Their singing coach(I think) remembered seeing Emma in a play and asked her to join the group. and of course, she exepted!

Eventually they decided to change the name to Spice girls.

In 1996 they put out their first single "wannabe", it became a huge succes.
Shortly after that their first album came out,  titled "spice".

After wannabe they put out "say you'll be there", "2 become 1", and "mama", and in some countrys "who do you think you are?"

Then, they put out their Movie and second cd, both titled "spice world".
the theme song for the movie was "too much". the other singles from the album are "spice up your life", "stop", "viva forever".
In may '98, Geri left the spice girls. This was before Viva forever came out.

Their latest single is "goodbye", it is from their new album that isn't out yet.
Their next single will be "my favorite suit".

Sometime in '98 Mel B got engaged to Jimmy Gulzar, a spice world tour dancer. And Victoria got angaged to british soccer player David Beckham.And both got pregnant.
Early '99 Mel B and Jimmy got married.
February 18th, '99 Mel B had her baby, it was  a baby girl. they named her Pheonix Chi. March 4th '99 Victoria had a baby boy, they named him Brooklyn Joseph.

The spice girls have a contract to put out at least 4 more albums(Some being solo).

As for Geri, she is starting her own singing career, her fisrt single is titled "look at me".

You can also expect solo albums from Mel G and Mel C soon!
