Does it bother anyone else that the Spice Girls claim to be all "girl power" but skitter around the stage on their 2 foot-high platforms and hop up and down so that their boobs practicaly fall out of their skin-right crop-tops as they lament over songs about guys?!?!?!? HELLO!!! Does this not seem incredibly hypicritical and annoying to anyone else?!?
Yep. I think the Spice Girls are so over. They're getting booed at concerts and their new album hasn't done much. I think the movie is gonna be a big bomb and then maybe they'll just go away!!!
Someone, please make the Spice Girls go away!!!! I can sum their group up in 2 words...
Who really cares about the Spice Girls? They were created by record companies, and everyone knows they are never going to last. And BTW a girl CAN have power even if she is wearing 2-ft high platforms and wears crop-tops. Girls don't gain power by what they wear, but by what they say, do etc. I realize the Spice Girls are not the poster children for girl power (even though the media makes them seem that way) and they probably are just puppets of the record companies. But I'm sick of people judging other people's beliefs or ideas by their appearance. And I used to wonder why there are so many myths of how feminists can't wear dresses are wear make-up.
Their breasts nearly fall out of their skin.
I think some of their songs are o.k. like "Wannabe" and "Who do you think you are" but the rest are like so un-hip: about guys, they have no beat to them. Oh well, they still are top priority in Britain. We can have different opinions I guess. I think they are stupid, except for the 2 songs that I listed above. Oh well, judge me if you will ......
hey anonymous- that's my line "Oh well, judge me if you will"! If you just came up with that on your own, I must say, you have excellent taste in closing phrases :)
Que,
I feel bad for the spice girls...just a few more pawns being played by big music executives that know that marketing, and not quality of music, is the key of success.
I saw the Spice Girls in concert and I think they are really good but I am glad that Geri is leaving though.
Has anyone seen their movie Spice World? I've seen it three times (at parties), and while I have never thrown up, or hurled something at the tv, I must say it's really crappy.
Do you guys have any clue how many sites on nrrd grrl are about the Spice girls. I don't like them and I think you are wasting your time writing about them.
Ya, I agree we could be writing about more important stuff
They claim to be "girl power" but why do they sing songs about love and guys? Also they dress like prositudes. You want REAL music girl power? Try Gwen Stefawn (No Doubt), Alanis Morisette or Jewel.
Just because they don't want to be owned by blokes doesn't mean that they can't love them, their whole idea of girl power is to wear whatever they like and not be descriminated by people like you, if they like to expose their bodies like that. They're in it for the fun, not for the image. So you don't like their music, that's your opinion, some people do like their music and those are the people the Spice Girls are singing it to.
I agree with Rhiannon, I mean, their girl power is being able to dress the way they want, like guys, have personalities, and make money. I'd say they do send out a good message.
