The News Of The World has been stirring up the old will-the-Spice-Girls-reform debate. At the weekend, the tabloid, whilst dispelling rumours that band members were planning to reunite for Children In Need, claimed that the girl-group have made plans to meet with former manager Simon Fuller and discuss a comeback.
A no-doubt-reliable source said: "They'll have an informal dinner and then get down to business about the reunion. The girls can't do the reunion without Simon. He still has a deal over their touring and merchandising."
Of course, as always, it's hearsay. And surely Mel C wouldn't agree to it? Why, only last month she told the Sunday People: "I haven't changed my mind. I was approached earlier in the year and took a long time thinking about it. My heart and head said no. It's not something I want to do. That has not changed. I'd rather be remembered for how we were than spoil it with a reunion."
