Meanwhile, Mel C’s other bandmates have felt a bit left out. “Mel doesn’t feel close enough to the band to ask them to be bridesmaids or maids of honor,” the insider added. “So she and Victoria have decided all the girls should be invited as guests, rather than giving them special roles.”

Spice Girl Victoria Beckham tells News of the World she was the reason behind the British girl group cutting their reunion tour short, saying it was time to return to the fashion industry full time. Posh said she’ll never perform with the Spice Girls, nor as a solo artist, again. “I was very nervous about going back into the Spice Girls because I didn’t want to send out a confused message,” she admitted. “The reason I decided to do the tour was to show my kids that mummy was a pop star once. I’ve been thinking about this for a long time. I’m not in the music industry any more. I’m in the fashion industry. I’m putting together a team of people now so it will be my main project when I finish this tour in a month. It’s the last opportunity there will be to see the Spice Girls together.” The full story at newsoftheworld.co.uk has since been removed.
Victoria Beckham checked in on the Spice Girls blog on Monday (December 24), talking about the British girl group’s reunion tour. “We’re having so much fun on tour,” the 33-year-old said. “I know it sounds like a cliche but it really is the truth. I think for me, the highlight so far was Tuesday night at The O2 Arena in London and having our kids on stage with us during Mama. I’ve said it lots of times before but my boys really are the reason that I am doing this and to have them up there with me was a very proud moment.”
Beckham also praised the honesty of one of the show’s fans at the O2 gig. “Talking of the show on Tuesday, Mel B lost her bracelet as it flew off in to the audience and we want to say a big thank you to David who picked it up and contacted our management company to tell us that he had it,” Posh said. “We’re grateful to him for being so honest and we’ll be meeting up with him before one of our shows in January to say thank him in person.”
