HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GERI HALLIWELL!!

Our little Ginger Spice is all grown up. Geri Halliwell turns 40 today! Geri was always my fave Spice Girl, and she is looking better than ever these days (as evidenced by her posing next to a photo of herself 15 years ago). Girl's got it together. She and her former bandmates are reportedly performing at the closing ceremonies of the Olympics, so expect some Spice Mania to break out once again.

BEST SELLING GIRL GROUPS OF ALL TIME

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MEL C!!!

Melanie Chisolm, aka Sporty Spice, aka Mel C is 38 today! The former Spice Girl has a lot to celebrate. Did you know that Mel has sold more than 12 million records as a solo artist and holds the third position for most United Kingdom number-ones by a female artist. She is also the only female to reach UK Official Singles Chart at number one as a part of quartet, quintet, duo and as a solo artist?
