Spice Girls Sorry Australia Tour Dates Aren’t Happening

Spice Girls stars Melanie Chisholm, Emma Bunton, and Victoria Beckham spoke backstage to the Sydney Morning Herald about their decision to cancel the Australian leg of their comeback tour before their performance at Madison Square Garden the other evening. “We were really excited about that part of the tour,” Chisholm said. “We had never toured Australia before. We literally ran out of time and we know that probably isn’t good enough.” Bunton cited US and UK demand for tickets. “It was huge in the UK and the US,” she said. “You know we love you lots.” And Posh added that children was another big factor. “We’re mothers,” she said. “That’s our priority at the end of the day.”
