Get Ready World: The Spice Girls Are Back!!
Remember 1996? Before Paris-and Nikki-Hilton, Sex and the City, Monica Lewinski and Madonna’s life as a housewife and mother there was another feminine phenomenom engulfing us with their soda pop songs and hot as Tabasco dance moves. Yep, it’s been that long since teenage girls and young women wanted to be Spice Girls all around the world. Well, guess what? Soon, the Spice Girls are coming back, Geri Halliwell and all.
Fortunately or unfortunately, depending on how you see it, they are not bringing their bright, colorful fashions of the past with them, instead looking very mature with soft, businesswomen like dresses that reflect the maturity given to them by the last decade.
Even Scary Spice, Melanie Brown, looks more like your woman next door compared to eleven years ago, even as I have to admit, I always wanted her to be, not just the woman next door, but my woman. After all, aren’t some spices hot too?
For Spice Girl fans it will be good to remember all those years of unabashed teenage joy with the Spice World movie and game, the fresh and sugary songs like “Wannabe” and “Say You’ll Be There”. For non fans, it will be just another chance to scoof the Old Spices. Ask Boy Spice here, I still hear them-although I particularly don’t care-for being a Spice Girls fan.
Without a shadow of a doubt, the last ten years, since the Spice Girls first appeared on the entertainment map, have changed society, with the September 11, 2001 attacks setting up the tragic tone, while the war on Iraq has either made us haters or supporters of an American Government that went there lacking a lot of worldwide support in their decision, Sex and the City made us look at things a little bit more lightly, The Sopranos made us realize we all have a dark side deep inside, and Ricky Martin taught us it is ok to proclaim you’re livin la vida loca. Likewise, I would expect The Spice Girls to come changed. They may even exchange presents on mother’s day while on tour this time around.
Because they have apparently matured and so has their audience, the Girls can be expected to wear some elegant, long pants or dresses, perfectly combined in clear colors that will also help them perspirate less during their concerts. After all, women do perspirate too! It’s a shame, however, that we may not get to see them wearing some wavy miniskirts, since one who can’t score with them from behind a computer desk can only hope for some flash but the Spice Girls, like I said and I dare repeat, having matured, they will probably choose to be seen in public wearing more elegant, shall i say even correct, outfits. Posh Spice Victoria Beckham may even pitch in with some help, after all, she is the owner of the VB fashion brand.
Emma “Baby Spice” Bunton, Melanie Brown, Victoria “Posh Spice” Beckham, Melanie “Sporty Spice” Chisholm and Geri “Sexy Spice” Halliwell will return to try to rock the world once again. I know they always rock my world.
And, honestly, I don’t care what Simon has to say about that. Power, indeed. And good fashion taste at once!
