* Spice Girls - Headlines (Friendship Never Ends) NEW SINGLE * February 28, 2008: "Spice Girls Say Final Goodbye As They End Reunion Tour In Toronto" The Spice Girls ended their reunion tour last night at the Air Canada Center in Toronto. The Spice Girls were emotional, with Victoria Beckham, Geri Halliwell, Emma Bunton, Melanie Chisholm, and Mel B saying a tearful goodbye with a group hug. An emotional Geri said, “I’ve just got to say, as you know, this is the last night of the tour and we never dreamt we’d ever back together and be such a success and who knows if we’ll ever get back together again.” The Spice Girls ended the gig with a performance of ‘Spice Up Your Life’. Mel B said she’ll keep in touch with the other Spice Girls, saying, “I know if I want to cry, I’ll go to Emma. If I want to get like a business or career strategy, I’ll go to Geri. I know if I want to look after myself, maintain my fitness, I’ll go to Mel C. If I want to know about fashion, tweaking things to make them work for you, I’ll go to Victoria.” The Spice Girls posted a message on their website after coming off stage last night, it said ~ “Our time is up … we’ve come to the end of the road … there are tears of both sadness and joy. Look how far we’ve come! “Who would have thought that our reunion could have turned out to be this amazing? It just shows what can grow out of an exciting thought, an idea, a hope, a dream. Yes, our reunion tour is proof that dreams do come true. “Ten years on, you came back still wanting more … and it looks like we made some new friends along the way. You have inspired and ignited us with each show, the 47 that we performed, each time was amazing and it is thanks to you. The message ended with lyrics from their song ‘Goodbye’ ~ “Goodbye my friend, it’s not the end … so glad we made it, time will never ever change it.” Victoria Beckham, Emma Bunton, and Mel B brought their children onstage near the end of the concert. Victoria’s youngest son wore a T-Shirt with POSH written on the front, and once again he showed off his break dance moves to the delighted crowd. *** Music POP Spice Girls band picture(s)/pic(s), wallpaper, video and photo gallery, albums covers pictures. The Spice Girls are a BRIT Award-winning English all-female pop group, which formed in London in 1994. The Spice Girls signed to Virgin Records and released their debut single, "Wannabe", in 1996. The song went on to spend seven weeks at the top of the UK singles chart and helped establish the group as an "international phenomenon" who went on to release three studio albums and ten singles, selling in excess of 53 million records world wide. The group embraced merchandise and became a regular feature of the British press. Each member of the group was given aliases by Top of the Pops Magazine in 1996 which were adopted by the group and media alike. According to biographer David Sinclair, "Scary, Baby, Ginger, Posh and Sporty were the most widely recognised group of individuals since John, Paul, George and Ringo", stating that the group was "a social phenomenon that changed the course of popular music and popular culture". They released three studio albums and went their separate ways in 2001 to focus on their solo careers; however, on June 28, 2007, they reformed and are now planning a greatest hits album, plus a tour, The Return of the Spice Girls, which will be in support of their hits compilation. Shortly after the Forever era had ended, the girls decided to focus on their solo careers. And since then rumours have persisted of a reunion. UK national tabloid The Mirror even dedicated front-page space and half of their double page, daily entertainment news to what was supposedly their scoop, that the girls were back, reforming for the Live 8 concerts. Organiser Bob Geldof confirmed at a press conference on May 31, 2005 that he had been in contact with all of them and was serious about wanting them to reform but it was all five of them or nothing. In the end, the girls were unable to reform due to prior obligations in the US by Melanie B. The girls also hoped to perform at the Concert for Diana but were unable due to timing constraints and that Emma was heavily pregnant at the time. On June 28, 2007 after months of speculation, the Spice Girls announced an eleven date world wide tour entitled "The Return of the Spice Girls" kicking off in Los Angeles on December 7, 2007. The tour will support the November release of a greatest hits album through Virgin Records. In addition, filmmaker Bob Smeaton will oversee an official documentary on the reformed band, which will be distributed worldwide at an undisclosed date. On the documentary, Geri said, "You are going to get to know what is behind the stories that you've heard, it's going to be the most honest story you've ever heard, you're going to get to see the dark side of the Spice Girls, the gritty side, the tears".
