Spice Girls reunion FEVER hits Las Vegas! (but only if a half-empty arena counts as "fever")
BORED INDIFFERENCE SWEEPS THE NATION



http://www.wwtdd.com/post.phtml?pk=3243

Despite concert promoters claiming that the Spice Girls reunion tour is selling out wherever it stops, that certainly wasn't the case last night in Las Vegas. The Daily Mail says:

Almost half of the seats in the Mandalay Arena auditorium were empty as the group took to the stage for their second show in Las Vegas. It's not the first disappointment the Spice Girls have encountered since their reunion. Their charity comeback single Headlines (Friendship Never Ends) is the worst selling Children in Need song ever after it scraped into the UK midweek charts at No.10. The Spice Girls play their last show in Las Vegas on Tuesday night before heading to New York.

This is even more amazing because it was in Vegas. Everything sells out in Vegas. Celine Dion sold out almost every one of her shows during her three year stay at Caesars. That's 600 shows. I guess the difference is, this is exactly like the old Spice Girls tour, except worse in every way. It's the same crappy songs, except now sung by middle aged moms, like a bunch of drunk secretaries on karaoke night. They should have at least made it better than the original. I'm not sure if it will help to have Victoria give me a blowjob before the show, but my gosh, we've got to try something!

13. Is it possible to spoon with a stick figure?
I would understand spooning with the 1996 Posh, but the 2007 Posh looks rough. I thought she looked great back in the Spice Girls' heyday, but she's way too skinny now. Just MHO...

15. She looks pretty good here


I did see the pics of her extremely skinny, which I didn't care for. She looks like she's back in contest shape.

Had I my choice, I'd go Sporty all the way.

11. He would be much more hot without those tattoos

And it definitely doesn't bode well for their finances.

7. They're playing more than one date in Vegas
they may not have all been sold out (I don't know how many were), but surely they would have only done one concert there if there wasn't much demand. However, the Girls keep having to expand the tour (this past weekend they added several more East Coast dates) and they've got over a dozen dates scheduled in London alone. By most accounts, the tour is doing quite well.
