Melanie Chisholm Responds To The Sun’s ‘Lies’
June 17, 2004 - Melanie Chisholm posted a message on her official site in response to a report in The Sun saying she was the reason Spice Girls wouldn’t be getting back together this year. Mel C writes, “Hi. I didn’t intend to post a message until after the tour but unfortunately there’s something in the press today that I want to put straight, although I have numerous times before. The Sun again today have printed a story about how I’m such a bad sport for not doing a Spice reunion tour. As I have said before I have never been approached by anybody, Virgin Records, Simon Fuller, Victoria, Melanie B, Geri or Emma regarding a reunion and I am completely unaware of any of the other girls desire to get back together. I am so excited about my new album. The tour is proving to be a huge success and is completely sold out. I chose to play these small venues and did not advertise these shows as I am not promoting anything. They are for fun, for you guys and to try out new songs before I start recording. It’s really annoying to keep reading all these lies so I just wanted to clear things up in case any of you had any doubts. If I don’t see you in Cardiff or London I’ll see you soon. Love Melanie xx.”
