That makes me feel old, but then I remember passing the Spice CD booklet around the school bus in 6th grade when it first came out. That makes me feel less old.
Baby spice was my favourite.. My sister loved Sporty.. My second favourite was Geri and I was really sad when she left after the concert they did in Helsinki and blamed my parents for not buying my tickets for the show. I guess I thought I could've somehow prevented that from happening.. :P
Baby Spice...and so embarassing I thought my CD booklet was actually autographed back when I was 9. Didn't realize it was just printed signatures at first.

Baby. I was a brunette though and I remember the other girls would always try to force me to be Posh or Sporty but I wasn't having it. I put on my pigtails and I was Baby. :D

I was Posh once when our class choir performed easter songs at a new supermarket. My friends and I were dressed as the girls and I wore a black top, black skirt and jeans and I looked soooo cool.

i love how we all around the world played as spice girls but i really don't remember who i was:( i remember we were fighting because everyone wanted to be baby
LOL SAME HERE. We only had one CD player in our house and it was one of those 6-disc changer types in the family room. I wasn't allowed to play Spice Girls on it, so I had to play it on the boom box in my room.
I also have a very vivid memory of the night that I was listening to my Spice Girls cassettes, as usual, and suddenly had the realization that "2 Become 1" was all sexual references. I had an "Oooooooooo" moment, like when someone gets in trouble in class.
saaame i had SO MUCH SHIT. i STILL have a fucking spice girls photo album with like a million pictures of them. it was like something you bought at fucking walmart and you'd get a pack of pictures and if you got doubles you'd trade with friends for ones you didnt have and shit. it was cray cray.
I have the original VHS, but no VCR haha
Lolz forever.
this makes more sense
Spice Worldshould have won an Academy Award IMO!
ia, ia.
Baby Spice here all the way.
I still remember Kurt Loder delivering the bad news to me that fateful day.
I liked Sporty's janked up tooth and greased ponytails.
i think it's cause she had brown hair like me, and didn't give off a dyke vibe like mel c.
BUT I FIGURED IT OUT.
I wanted to be Posh but I have blonde hair.
I'm a brunette so I had to use that halloween hair dye spray and my hair looked like a greenish yellow.
Then when Geri quit, I cried my eyes out for days and then stanned even harder for Emma.
Except I was 19.
That was mostly cause my cousin called dibs on Baby.
bittersweet memories tbh
everyone liked baby
Fierce, talented, better than all your faves, etc etc
My friends and I judged anyone who liked baby lol.
Loved them both/
I fucking love the Spice Girls forever.
At least I didn't have to fight to be Baby.
i love that "played spice girls" is such a common thing.
i remember in elementary school playing it with friends and side eyeing the group of girls on the other side of the playground doing the same thing.
so true during recess serious fights broke out over which spice girl you were.
....because my cousin called dibs on Baby
but i really don't remember who i was:(
i remember we were fighting because everyone wanted to be baby
she was speechless. I'm a boy.
I also have a very vivid memory of the night that I was listening to my Spice Girls cassettes, as usual, and suddenly had the realization that "2 Become 1" was all sexual references. I had an "Oooooooooo" moment, like when someone gets in trouble in class.
embarrassing now. :\
In my 2nd grade school picture, I'm wearing a Spice Girls necklace. I ain't even ashamed.
