L&K magazine exclusively joins the Feisty Five on the sets of the O Zone and Electric Circus
Deep down in the murky basement of London's BBC TV Centre all is silent. Suddenly an ear-piercing "Yeeeeargh!" shatters the peace and is quiet. Is it the sound of Mr Sage removing his toupee? Has Blobby just squished the entire Blue Peter team? Nope! The Spice Girls have officially entered the building.
Toby Anstis perches nervously on a bean bag ready for a chinwag with Emma and co for L&K's Leccy Circus. Meanwhile in a room down the corridor our Jamie is lying stretched out on the floor 'psyching himself up' for a Spicy interview in front of the O Zone cameras. L&K Magazine is there to capture the lot...
TOTALLY BARMY!
"Ooh Toby, sit on my lap!" squeals a saucy Posh Spice as the girls burst into the room. "Hey! Those flowers aren't real," yells Mel B who's busy thrusting a plastic boom up Toby's nose. "Make sure you can't see my knickers," wails Emma to the camera geezer as she tugs at her teeny weeny mini skirt. Mel C leaps up off her bin bag shouting, "Like me new jumper?!" "Her nan knitted it!" cries Geri breaking into fits of raucous laughter. The camera blokey wipes a bead of sweat from his brow.
BLOOMIN' WEDDINGS "Emma how are you?" asks Toby while the make-up lady powders five Spicey noses. "I'm sweating, Toby!" whimpers Baby. The other girls quiz director Jen about her recent wedding, Victoria's busy fiddling with the gold padlock on her posh spikey stilettos. "What wedding?" she suddenly cries out, all wide-eyed. Emma explains that Victoria and her fottie boyfriend David Beckham are constantly being plagued with wedding rumour stories. "It never happened before when I was going out with a flower seller," laughs Vic before adding, "Edit that out please! That's horrible!"
The gals chat about the movie ("it's a celebration of London"), Mel C's new gold tooth and the possibility of Spice waxworks. "If you melted down a Geri waxwork you could re-mold the whole of 911!" giggles Emma.
FISTICUFFS! The 20 minutes interview flies by, then its a quick sprint down the corridor to join an apprehensive Jamie T. (But not before Mel B and Geri pin our poor photographer against the wall and make a jokey grab for his bits!)
"You're looking very brown luv!" cries Mel B planting a big smacker on Jamie's cheek and heading the others into their seats.
With not a second to lose Jamie launches straight into the first question... only to be interrupted by a 'Beep Beep!' "My Tamogotchi!" squeals Emma. "I've already killed it off. I gave it too many ice creams."
Meanwhile a Spicy scrap breaks out between Mel B, Geri and Jamie! "You only hit someone when you fancy them," shouts Mel C. "Ow!" screams Geri, as Mel B whacks her one on the arm. The girls are all nursing sore arms from the nasty injections they've had to have for their foreign trips. "I'm the only one who didn't scream," says a proud Emma. "And would you believe Mel B screamed the loudest!"
WORK IT GURRRLLS! Jamie skilfully steers the conversation back on track and the Spicies reveal all about their French Spice Camp where they've been getting fit for their world tour. "We have to go to aerobics every day," pipes up Victoria. "It makes me and Emma cry."
"Huh! And as for Mel B," yells Geri, "she's so lazy. After two minutes she'll say 'Me lags ache. I'm off to bed!'" "Yeah but," chips in Victoria who's now snapped the padlock off her posh shoe, "Geri's always going 'I can do it better. That's not the right exercise for that bit of the body'." And with that another fisty fight erupts. Yikes! Time to scarper.
The Girls are back in town and no one's safe!
