The Spice Girls party at the Beckham's every Christmas

Emma Bunton has revealed that the Spice Girls get drunk at Victoria Beckham's house every Christmas. How great is that? Do they have a buffet with soggy tuna barms and tiny sandwiches that curl up during the night? Probably not. Anyway, Geri Halliwell, Mel B and Mel C, apparently have a festive tradition of having a girl's night in and getting "tipsy" while singing along to their favourite Spice Girl songs.

"We all go over to David and Victoria's for lovely food and good wine," the Daily Express quotes Bunton as saying.

"It's the only time we all get to see each other, we get a bit tipsy and listen to Spice Girls songs. I can't believe I've admitted that!"

Aw! Merry Christmas!

Mel C: No comeback for Spice Girls

Spice Girl Mel C has denied reports that the band are planning a second reunion. Quite a number of people had been claiming that the '90s girl group would be reforming for a whole bunch of live shows after the singer was spotted on a night out with Mel B, Emma Bunton and Geri Halliwell. However, Mel C told Metro: "We were just catching up, there was no business talk. There are no plans to do anything."

She added: "One paper said four of us would get together, but that's not true. I'd love to work with the girls again but I'd only do it if all five of us were involved."

New reports have suggested that the members of the girl group want to front a reality TV programme to pick stars to play them in a musical based on their career.

Sex? Five times a day? That's what Mel B reckons...

Former Spice Girl Mel B has claimed that she keeps trim by having sex five times a day. Apparently, Mel denied that she is obsessed with exercise and attributed her (frighteningly) toned physique to regular sessions with her husband Stephen Belafonte. "I'm honestly not body-obsessed - I can't be with three kids and a husband," she told Grazia. "My husband likes my muscles, but then he's seen me every which way over the past eight years - including when I put on 42lbs after my last pregnancy - and he always loves my body.

"In fact, on top of all my exercise, I have sex with him five times a day - maybe that has something to do with it. I have to admit, I'm a nymphomaniac with him. It's sexercise," she continued.

Mel B, who is currently appearing in Vegas burlesque act Peepshow, added that she would never consider liposuction as a quick weight-loss measure. "I have never had liposuction and I never would - you can tell when people have it because it makes their skin uneven. I've got a six-pack without lipo. I don't need it," she said.

Even though it seems unlikely to be the truth, it certainly puts a whole new slant on getting your five-a-day...

Mel B's underwear obsession

Former Spice Girls star Mel B says she is "obsessed with underwear" and never keeps any sets which are past their best.

Mel B is "obsessed with underwear".

The former Spice Girls star - who became the face and body of lingerie brand Ultimo in April this year - loves underwear so much she only has beautiful sets and never keeps any bras or panties past their best.

She said: "I never have embarrassing knickers. I've always been obsessed with underwear and toiletries. I've always kept that together, so I have perfect underwear."

The 33-year-old singer - who has two daughters, Phoenix Chi, nine and 17-month-old Angel Iris - recently revealed she is so comfortable with her body she would consider appearing nude in Playboy magazine.

Mel has turned down two offers to appear in the adult publication, but hasn't ruled out the idea completely.

She said: "I was offered Playboy last year and again a couple of months ago, and I did turn them down, but that's not to say I wouldn't consider it in the future. I have no problems walking around the house naked or anything.

"I'm pretty confident with my bikini body. It's not like I've got a skinny body either - it's very voluptuous. But I do like it and that's great. I work out and eat healthy and listen to my body."

Victoria Beckham desperate to be more than a WAG

Run for cover people as Victoria Beckham has got the grumps. Why? Because of David's foray into facial fuzz? Nope. Cos she's just realised she has absolutely zero discernable talent? No (but it should be). Rather, pouty Posh is annoyed that America hasn't fallen for her charms yet and that she's still better known for her husband's fame and glory. Just like here in the UK, then.

Talking to Closer magazine, a friend of the star revealed: "She can't bear being known as someone's wife and she hates the WAG label. She's getting offered the same TV work as Paris Hilton when she wants to be on a level with her pal Kate Beckinsale - but she just isn't an actress. Posh doesn't feel she's seen as a credible fashion icon yet. She's also disappointed that the TV work she is offered is always to play herself or someone similar to herself."

That's what happens when you’re not an actress – you don’t get offered top acting roles. Funny that.

Posh is also said to be feeling her age and bans anyone from mentioning her 34th birthday which she celebrated with showbiz chums recently. Which we just did. Sorry Posh. But don’t worry, being so incredibly geriatric and past-it at the crinkly age of 34 you won’t be able to read for much longer and probably can't take to this fancy, new Interweb thing anyway.

Geri Halliwell just loves Victoria Beckham

Ever since they reunited to flog their Greatest Hits CD/ world tour/ Tesco's Christmas food, the Spice Girls are determined to convince us that they are bestest chums and that anyone who says otherwise is a big smelly liar. The latest attempt at girl power togetherness comes from their most mouthy member, Geri Halliwell, as she has been spilling all to You magazine on her friendship with the joyless robot known as Posh Spice.

      

"I have huge admiration for Victoria," gushes Geri. "She had her boys with her the whole time and she's done such a great job with them – they are all so well mannered and caring. Victoria and I are actually the biggest supporters of each other. We feel really proud of one another."

    

Not feeling nauseous yet? Not to worry, as Geri has more icky adoration to share with us all. And to really ramp it up, she's talking about the pair's kids.

    

"Romeo [Beckham] is just so sweet with Bluebell," she blathers amid some other guff about how Cruz Beckham and Bluebell have play-dates and how she's shopped with nine-year-old Brooklyn.

       

It's a good job they're such good chums as talk like that is enough to make everyone positively hate them.

Emma denies Spice Girls in-fighting

Emma Bunton might be better known as Baby Spice, but it seems this baby is having a bit of a sulk. The singer has rejected claims that the Spice Girls tour was blighted by bitchy in-fighting, insisting that the five girls prematurely called time on their reunion world tour for family reasons. Okay Emma – we'll try to believe you. "The tour was special for everyone. We were having the best time, contrary to some reports," insists the star earnestly.

"We were supposed to be at each other's throats when we were actually having a great laugh." At Geri's dancing no doubt. "We've grown up. We had far better things to do than argue amongst ourselves. It was emotionally charged, though, because we've shared too much history. It ended because we wanted to get back home to normal family life and the kids needed to get back to school, simple as that. There is no question of us falling out."

No question? Well, I think there was a question hence why you are publicly answering it. But claiming that your kids all had to hurry back to school? Surely, with your PR team you could have spun a more likely story than that old chestnut.

The Beckhams hit up a sex shop

They've been married for a few years now and so to show the public that they still have the hots for one another, the Beckhams were spotted visiting a Hollywood sex shop – talk about spice up your life. The couple hit up the Pleasure Chest adult store late at night, dressing rather plainly (in a fruitless bid to look like they didn’t want to be snapped), and clearly enjoying their saucy adventure.

"David grabbed a small shopping basket and stocked up on some goods," a source told The Sun. "Victoria was very vocal, cracking jokes constantly. They seemed to know exactly what they wanted and after asking an assistant where items were, they grabbed what they came for." And what sex toys do appeal to such an A-list couple? Apparently, massage oil, personal lubricant, a Cyberskin vibrator, a leather braided cane and a padded black collar and restraint. Wish I hadn't asked now.

Pals worry that Posh is "exhausted"

Friends of Victoria Beckham (otherwise known as her staff) are concerned that she is wearing herself out. Speaking to Grazia magazine (cos the tabloids are so grubby), one chum revealed: "Victoria has been running on empty for the last few months and is very, very tired. The tour has completely drained all the energy out of her, as it did the other girls, but on top of her Spice Girl commitments, Victoria has continued to invest masses of energy into her fashion career. Everyone is very worried she might keel over."

Fashion career? As the pop one went so well. The pal continued: "Victoria kept saying how exhausted she was and there were moments backstage when she had to stop and sit down or lean against a wall because she felt so wobbly."

That could be due to blatantly eating nothing – go on girl, get a sandwich down your neck. But more importantly, do we believe such comments? Couldn’t they be a very convenient way to achieve public sympathy, and why does she need to work at such a reported break-neak speed anyway? She's set up for life and doesn't need to work herself into the ground.

Come on Vicky – have a sit down, put your feet up and have a nice relaxing cuppa.

The touring Spice Girls don't stay in the same hotel

It was never going to be a long-term thing, but news that The Spice Girls are cutting short their world tour has had tongues a-wagging about fallings out within the girl group. They've been keen to appear chummy, with Mel B even getting her grope-on with Posh's boobs onstage, but new reports claim the pop quintet aren't even staying at the same hotel as each other.

A blabbermouth within the Spice camp revealed to 'The Mirror': "They usually stay in the same hotel, but that's changed. What was meant to be a chance to get together, have fun and make cash has become a nightmare. The only time they get together is for sound checks and the concerts. They lead separate lives.

"The tension has been bubbling under the surface for some time. Mel B and Mel C seem to have a real problem with each other. All this talk of family and solo careers seems far fetched. As far as I'm concerned, the bickering is the issue."

I love that even those in the inner Spice sanctum scoff at their solo efforts. Well, what do you expect when you reunite five competitive, ambitious girls in the glare of intense media scrutiny? Bitchiness about who looks the fattest and has had the best-looking offspring is only natural.

Top Five Celebrity Blogs: Cos they can look good and type y'know

Nowadays everyone wants to get their two bits in and every Tom, Dick and Harry are getting in on the act with their own blog. No wonder celebs feel this  afield they want to explore by joining the online world, where a PR can't moderate all the comments! So who gives us a good read and who is just plain pants? We investigate...

Number 1: Lily Allen's Blog

Definitely not a PR stunt to gain her popularity this blog features diary entries, photos, and the odd bit of bad poetry. Hey that's what kids do these days. She also reveals such 'exclusives' as feeling suicidal and contemplating liposuction. Oh, and when she cancels a gig cos she's under the weather she shows us a picture of her with the doctors note (see above) to prove she ain't faking it. Read her most famous quote after the jump.

'This quote from her blog made front page of newspapers worldwide.

'Fat , ugly and shitter than winehouse..that is all i am , im on my own in america again . I used to pride myself on being strong minded and not being some stupid girl obsessed with the way I look . I felt like it didnt matter if I was a bit chubby cause , im not a model , I'm a singer . Im afraid I am not strong and have fallen vic tim to the evil machine . I write to you in a sea of tears from my hotel bed in Seattle , I have spent the past hour researching gastric bypass surgery , and laser lipo suction'

Hmm. Over-dramatic much?

Number 2: David Beckham Blog

Wow, he can play and write? Apparently as he posted this on his blog- '

'Hello and a happy new year to you all. I’ve had an incredible start to the year already! I was lucky enough to receive the Football Writers Tribute Award last night, which was amazing for me personally. I was pleased to have Sven Goran Eriksson and Bryan Robson there at the ceremony saying a few words about my career. Both of them have achieved much in the game and are good people. It was also very emotional watching the highlights of my career so far. I’m so proud of what I have accomplished and I know I still have plenty more to offer. It was a special night for both me and my family, who were also there with me, and I hope I can create some more memories to add to the ones recognised yesterday evening.'

Has he really written enough, ever, to justify an award? Hmm.

Here's another snippet,

'I was really pleased to be called up to the England squad in August, it is always an absolute honour and a privilege to play for my country and its something I’d always hoped would happen again. Unfortunately, things didn’t go the way we wanted and we won’t be going to Euro 2008, which is incredibly disappointing. However, looking to the future, I feel I still have something to offer. I’ll always want to play for my country and I hope I can continue to do so. It was brilliant to go along and celebrate my Academy’s 2nd anniversary. When the Academy first opened I could only have wished it would be a success, and seeing so many children coming through the doors and enjoying the game of football has been great. Here’s to many more!The Galaxy’s tour of Australia and New Zealand was also an amazing experience.'

He's very positive isn't he? Almost sickeningly so, actually no, make that extremely sickening.

 

Number 3: Spice Girls Blog

Written by the Girl power girls themselves, their blog includes tidbits about heir tours, new pics and updates. A different Spice writes each entry and the tone verges from chirpy, to very chirpy with a constant upbeat theme.

'Happy New Year everybody, it's going to be a good one. Myself and all the Spiceys had a great Christmas. We caught up with our families, ate lots of mince pies and got some well-needed sleep! ' got together for a New Year’s Eve dinner at Gordon Ramsay's fabulous restaurant in Claridges. We got dressed up and had a great night. It was really lovely to see in the New Year with all the girls. We celebrated all the fun times from 2007 and raised a glass (or seven) to the ones to come and to the people who make them possible… especially you guys. THANK YOU!'

Oh and there's a lot of name dropping and thanks, gotta love that. You have to laughat a  post from Victoria about Mel B losing her  bracelet though-

'Talking of the show on Tuesday, Mel B lost her bracelet as it flew off in to the audience and we want to say a big thank you to David who picked it up and contacted our management company to tell us that he had it. We’re grateful to him for being so honest and we’ll be meeting up with him before one of our shows in January to say thank him in person.'

Number 4: Jodie Marsh's Website

You have to sign up for this which is a little annoying, but once in the delight you'll get from her ramblings by far outweigh any frustrations. You get great little snippets and video from her, and hilarious comments such as:

'Now...... get your bums off your seats, get to your nearest newsagents and get yourself this week's edition of Ok cos mine and Matt's wedding photos are in there! It's a huge spread with tons of pics that span from the actual ceremony right up to the party in the night time. My favourite pics are: the one of us kissing on page 92 (that was our real first kiss as husband and wife ie. the bit where the registrar says "you may now kiss the bride") and I love the really big pic on page 95 - it was taken just as we were about to say our vows. Oooh I also love the pic of my dad giving his speech and the pics of our families and the pic of Dave Courtney and his wedding present to us and I love the pic of us with Syd Little on page 101. Sod it..... I love all the pics. I love my dress, I love how handsome Matt is, I love how sexy my bridesmaids look and how smart the ushers look. I love the fact that all the guests are dressed in black and white and I love how natural and beautiful all the pics are.'

Remember they broke up quite soon after! Hehe.  She does love overusing her exclamation marks as well.

Number 5:Matthew McConaughey

Yep, I didn't know he had a website either, and then I find out that he's been announcing potentially life changing news (for hm) on it, such as his impending fatherhood! Add to that the fact he has a rocking six pack and devilish smile and I'm adding this to my RSS feed.

''Got some blessed news… a celebration of life and bounty… a newborn conceived.. yes, my girlfriend Camila and I made a baby together… 3 months growing in her womb and all looks healthy and lively so far… we are stoked and wowed by this miracle of creation and this gift from God, and so excited for the adventure that will come in raising this child, being a mother and a father, and shepherding him or her through this life… from moms and dads, to family, to community, it takes the best will and support from everyone to raise the healthiest children we have in society… wish us the best, keep us in your prayers, and God bless evolution…'

At time of going to press this info had generated so much hype that the site has been overloaded and is temporarily down, however I can't wait to see the Bio and pics he has up. He does use an eye straining font for his diary though-change that!

Runner Up:  Perez Hilton

This guy started off as a nonentity but thanks to his witty, insightful and very bitchy website he soon became a celebrity in himself- one that writes about other celebrities! He now has definite celeb status- a party ain't a party if Perez hasn't commented on it. Go the blogosphere, for creating a home grown celeb.

Spice Girls copy Girls Aloud in Cavalli shocker

Roberto Cavalli has revealed his design sketches for the Spice Girls' upcoming reunion tour, which are reminding us of Girls Aloud's outfits for their music video No Good Advice. Silver and sparkly seems to be the theme of the girls' stage costumes which have been designed especially with each of their personalities in mind. "At their debut, the Spice Girls generated a trend with their individual looks and now, ten years later, they have put their trust in me to get a new, unique and iconic appeal for the tour," said Cavalli, who is currently in London for the Red Cross Ball.

Anchors Aweigh: The Spice Girls perform at the Victoria's Secret 2007 show

Wowee! Don't the Spice Girls look a treat? Kicking off their world-wide comeback, the ladies took to the stage at last night's Victoria's Secret 2007 show in L.A. to perform their hit song 'Stop' as well as their new single 'Headlines'. Glammed up in matching military-style outfits, reminiscent of Christina Aguilera's Canyman video, the girls pulled out all the stops to prove that they are back on form and ready to embark on their much-anticipated reunion tour.

Spice Girls pose in their bras, hide from each other in Tesco's

The Spice Girls have set a new fashion low posing for a 'sexy photoshoot'. Forgetting for a moment Geri and Mel B's monstrosities the girls don't look too bad, Emma Bunton and Mel C particularly look classy and Victoria's outfit is surprisingly understated. But you can't help looking back at Ginger and Scary's needlessly skimpy outfits. I know that having a washboard stomach after giving birth is quite a spectacular achievement but it doesn't mean Geri has to get her abs out ALL the time does it? Geri's skirt looks like it started out life as a dress but slithered down during the course of the photoshoot and is so low slung you just know she had to have her bikini line waxed especially. The girls are starring in advert that shows them trying to avoid bumping into each other during a Christmas shopping trip to Tesco's.

Top Five Celeb Calendars: Who will be on our wall in 2008?

Ok, some people may have stopped buying calendars when they graduated from primary school, but there clearly is still a large market aimed at the post pubescent purchasers (mainly male, my investigations have revealed, but why should I judge?) so to cope with the demand there are a plethora of scantily clad celebs stripping off to make  a quick buck. Hey, they have bigger Christmas lists to deal with OK? So let's see what will be adorning bedrooms around the country for the next year.

Number 1: The Spice Girls

Well January does follow their December sell out tour, and I'm sure there will be new tweens obsessed with them as well as all the old queens debating which Spice they most resemble.

Number 2: Kelly Brook

Well, she is super hot, and ahas just released a perfume, so it's no surprise she's making calendar pages. Oh and did I mention she just launched her latest sexy undies for New Look?

Number 3: Hollyoaks

Now these hot honeys are truly pin ups, after all they can act and strip which is quite a talent. After all, as gripping as the Hollyoaks storylines can be (who doesnt love the did she/didn't she sleep with her brother twist at the moment) we know that a fair majority of men nationwide just watch, well OK the McQueen sisters help a lot, but all the rest ares seriously gorgeous too.

Number 4: Girls Aloud

No longer the 'sound of the underground', these girls are mainstream hotties. With their name on everything from phones to underwear these Girls are hotly touted to make the Christmas No1, and the number 1 stocking filler!

Number 5: Jordan

Yes this big breasted lady will be making a stir in 2008, as always the lad mags favourite, Jordan a.k.a Katie Price has been hot to trot in 2007, with the launch of a fragrance, hair accessories and a Richard and Judy style chat show. Go Jordan!!

Emma Bunton introduces baby Beau

The media is full of the antics of the Spice Girls, and now Baby has gone public with the first published photograph of baby son Beau. In this snap with long-time partner Jade Jones, Emma seems to be beaming, and the joy is evident in her blog post that invites everyone to ‘meet Beau’: “Hi everyone. So sorry for the wait, but here is our beautiful little boy Beau. As you can see from the picture he is a bonny little soul, and he makes us so happy, he’s the best thing that’s ever happened to us. He’s 10 weeks old now and we can’t believe how quickly time flies. We’re all getting ready to go to L.A., we’ve packed his little bag with all his goodies. He’s started to sleep through the night now so mummy is getting some well deserved sleep before the tour : )

“I’ve been rehearsing with Geri and Mel C the last few days, and I really think it’s going to be a great show. We shot the video for Headlines (Friendship Never Ends) the other day and I didn’t stop laughing all the day with the other girls, it was great having the gang back together. I really hope you love the single as much as we do. Anyway that’s all for now, will try to send you a blog from L.A and let you know how the rehearsals are going. See you all soon! Lots of love, Emma xx” How cute!

The Spice Girls to front Tesco's festive campaign

Supermarkets are currently enjoying wheeling out the celebrities to promote them. The ASDA ones feature stars such as James Nesbitt, Victoria Wood and Ian Wright working in their stores, while Morrisons happily have Alan Hansen or Nick Hancock singing their praises. Now Tesco have gone one better by roping in the newly-reformed Spice Girls to front their festive campaign. Sporty, Ginger, Baby, Scary and Posh filmed two adverts for the store, each earning a whopping £1million for their efforts.

In the pic, the girls lounge around surrounded by their gold discs, lots of champagne and some tasty finger food (which none of them will probably eat.) A source revealed: “It’s an amazingly lucrative deal for the girls, and Tesco are thrilled as it’s a real coup. The ads are very funny as the girls insisted it had to be a send-up.” The source was right, as the Tesco spokesman is thrilled: "We are thrilled to be working with the Spice Girls for our Christmas campaign. We feel that the new commercials really emphasise Tesco's commitment to offer something different and exciting this Christmas." The adverts will air during Coronation Street on November 12th.

Hear the Spice Girls comeback single, Headline

After all the hype and excitement, now the comeback single from The Spice Girls is with us. The song, Headline (Friendship Never Ends) is a girly ballad in the vein of 2Become1, rather than one of their up tempo dance numbers. Its weird hearing the girls together again on a new song after so long apart, but as long as it means no more Victoria solo stuff, I’m all for it.

Listen to it here and see what you think. Is it a classic destined for greatness or has the magic gone?

Westlife claim the Spice Girls are "running scared" of them

Westlife's brand of mumsy ballads has never been my musical cup of tea, but apparently one member of the Irish boy band is keen to stress how tough they are…by picking on girls. Yes, Kian Egan (the one that never sings lead on the singles and helps ‘advise’ Louis Walsh on the X-Factor) has been mouthing off against the recently reformed Spice Girls, after a potential chart battle between the two pop power-houses was averted. Like rappers Kanye West and 50 Cent before them, the groups were looking to release albums on the same day, but now the ladies have delayed theirs by a week and Kian has been calling them chicken.

“We would take great pleasure in beating the Spice Girls - especially Mel C because every time she opens her mouth something mean comes out” reveals the tough-talking pop star. "Our album (Back Home) is good, we've worked hard on it and it would have been good to go head-to-head with their one. As far as we were concerned, we were going up against them and we were up for it. But then they suddenly changed their minds. They're running scared." This could be due to the Spice Girls losing out in a previous head-to-head with Westlife, but that was back when the divas were only a foursome. Now that they’re back with Geri, selling out shows and enjoying a media high – who’s to say the boys would have beaten the girls this time around?

Geri Halliwell spills on the new Spice Girls single

For years there was quiet and now the Spice Girls seem to be everywhere again. After we reported on their reunion concerts selling out in about half a second, now Geri Halliwell has been exciting fans further with news of the comeback single. Talking on GMTV, ‘Ginger’ revealed that the song is called ‘Headlines’ and is ‘absolutely amazing’ – FACT. Over to Geri: "Emma and I initially worked on it with the original writers we used to collaborate with and then the other girls chipped in later on, adding lyrics.

"It's a Spice Girl classic. We are so proud of it. We started putting words down before we even had the finalised yes from everyone. It was kind of like a prayer - when you kind of put the footwork in hoping that it will happen - so it is a really special song, it's kind of magical...It's a big love song." Yeah – I’m sure it’s a frickin’ masterpiece.

Mel B's cleaner claims she was dumped with her kids

That Mel B’s a busy girl. If she’s not in court busting Eddie Murphy’s ass, she’s doing promotional work with the Spice Girls for their upcoming reunion tour or practicing her dance moves for US reality show Dancing With the Stars. Phewee – sounds like she’s in need of a break from her hectic schedule and according to her former housekeeper Tonia Lamere she took one –and promptly dumped her newborn daughter Iris on her. Lamere claims she was given sole responsibility for the baby and her eight-year-old half sister Phoenix Chi, as the singer eloped with boyfriend Stephen Belafonte to Las Vegas where the couple tied the knot.

Lamere elaborates: "One evening of baby-sitting turned into four days. The child was sick, there was no nanny, and when Mel called, she never even asked about the baby." The cleaner claims she had to buy food for the two girls from her own money but Mel’s rep has been quick to quash the damaging rumours. She said: "Melanie is a hands-on mother completely dedicated to the upbringing of her children and the well-being of her entire family. Any fictitious accusations to the contrary stem from greedy people looking to make a buck." And I thought cleaners got a decent wage these days.

Sarah Harding hates Victoria Beckham

Sarah Harding is not one to bite her tongue. Oh no, the Girls Aloud singer loves to flap her gums and she’s been at it again, this time taking a swipe at fellow girl grouper Victoria Beckham. First band member Cheryl Cole dissed the idea of pop group reunions in a less than cryptic dig at the reforming Spice Girls and now Sarah has hit out at Mrs. Beckham for, of all things, her hairstyle.

Sarah has had her peroxide bob cut into a boyish crop to avoid being confused with Victoria. Over to Sarah to explain: 'I got my new haircut only because I hated when people compared me with Victoria Beckham. That's the only reason why I cut my hair’ clarifies the 25-year-old. ‘I hate her so much and I just can't stand it when I get compared with her all the time. I don't understand why it's such a big deal with me and her. I mean it's quite stupid. I am so glad my hair looks different now and I really hope people will stop this nonsense.' Yes people – you heard Sarah. Stop comparing her to the fame-seeking, blonde-barneted, pop puppet – they have absolutely nothing in common.

And I'm not talking about how much it will cost to make, or the girls exorbitant salaries, no I'm talking about the actual album itself in all it's CD like glory. Well, to be fair you are buying a particularly special CD when you purchase their greatest hits as jeweller David Morris has imprinted it with $2 million  worth of precious jewels. each letter is decorated with a different gem and symbolizes a different band member. S is made from Amber and represents Victoria Beckham, ruby pink P is Emma, Mel C's I is Diamond, Geri's C is sapphire stone and the E is emerald and stands for Mel B. Bling bling baby!

Mel B marries in secret - thankfully not to Eddie Murphy

I wonder at how well timed all the media attention Melanie Brown is getting. What with the Spice Girls reunion imminent, it's quite the coincidence. Not that I'm implying anything.

On the back of her ongoing baby battle with Eddie Murphy, news has leaked that Mel B is a married woman. Thankfully not to the caddish actor, but to director Stephen Belafonte (pictured) who produced 2005 comedy Thank You For Not Smoking. They got hitched in a secret Las Vegas ceremony on June 6. Quite the whirlwind, given the recent birth of her baby to Eddie Murphy.

Brown's representative confirmed that a marriage licence filed in Clark County, Nevada is genuine, telling TMZ: "(They're) very much in love. They have had a deep friendship for a number of years that has developed into a loving relationship."  The representative also explained the reason for the wedding's secrecy, saying: "They just value their privacy."

A wise move. Mel's getting a reputation for getting around a bit, I can't help thinking. Let's hope this one's a better success than all her previous conquests. Remember Jimmy Gulzar? That was quite a spectacular mess...

Mel B to sue Eddie Murphy's ass

Mel B has taken legal action in an attempt to prove that Eddie Murphy is the father of her 5-month-old daughter Angel Iris. Brown's legal rep', Gloria Allred, has claimed a DNA test has "established paternity, but paternity has not been legally acknowledged". Something to do with it being 110% his if I remember rightly... I don't know if 110% means the baby had an extra arm or something... but no matter.

The lawyer also claimed progress was being made with the organisation of child support payments. The Beverly Hills Cop star's spokesman, said: "We do not comment on Mr Murphy's personal life." The Dreamgirls actor has continually denied the Spice Girl's claims, saying in December: "I don't know whose child that is until it comes out and has a blood test. You shouldn't jump to conclusions."

This looks like it could bite the comic actor on the bum quite badly. Still, Murphy can ape his films and take on the guise of various other people in an attempt to dodge CSA payments...

Spice Girls let you choose Spice City

Yes, we all know they've reformed and that we have Christmas antics and renewed renditions of Wannabe to look forward to, but did you know that you can now nominate a location for the Spice Girl tour? Yes, cities which have previously been overlooked by the power of the Spice can be nominated by you , forcing the girls to zig a zig ah from Kabul to Iraq, an oversight the developers seem to have missed. I wonder how well Girl Power will go down in Taliban ruled countries, and urge you to vote for the more unusual locations so we see them cope.

Posh's leg - what the Hell is wrong with it?

Pictures seem to be all over the papers today of Victoria Beckham’s dodgy looking leg. Never one to miss out – here for Star Trip is the snap that will have Posh gnashing her bleached teeth and tearing at her bleached hair. Just what is wrong with her leg? All theories welcome. I know exercising is beneath her (it would involve taking off her hooker heels) but surely David could advise her on a few stretches to help. Or maybe her new Hollywood pals could give her the number of a good plastic surgeon, as the one that (may or may not have) done her boobs, needs their license revoking.

Mel B to marry again?

Hasn’t she got enough on her plate? No apparently. Mel B may have only just spawned ex boyfriend Eddie Murphy’s sprog and announced the Spice Girls re-union, but she has cunningly found time to fall in love with film producer Stephen Belafonte. Scary Spice and her new beau could soon be taking a trip down the aisle together with Brown having blabbed "He's the love of my life and I am going to marry him. Stephen's been a godsend.”

If I had gone through as many failed relationships in the public eye as her, I like to think I might show a bit more caution in publicly branding someone “the love of my life”. She had first husband Jimmy Gulzar, TV ‘star’ Max Beesley, some lesbian flings and then Eddie Murphy, or as Posh described him in her show ‘Victoria Beckham: Coming to America’ “Beverly Hills C**k”. Never one to miss the opportunity to dis her ex, Mel elaborated “Eddie hasn't been in touch once since I had the baby, it's unbelievable. But Stephen has been a tower of strength." Good, looks like he’ll do for the next ten minutes then.

Victoria Beckham in quite witty shocker

Victoria Beckham is once again the biggest news of the week with her husband David. The pair have just moved to LA for David's start with his new club the LA Galaxy, and of course for Victoria's fashionable stance and pout to get a cross-Atlantic work out.

Amid the publicity mania our Vic' has sure learned a thing or two about how to create some press. During filming for her reality TV show Victoria Beckham: Coming To America (which is yet to hit screens) she hit out at one rich and famous American star, with surprisingly witty results. When asked about Eddie Murphy she quipped, "Eddie Murphy? Beverly Hills C**k."

Surprisingly sharp for the ex-Spice Girl. She was of course defending ex bandmate Melanie Brown who got knocked up by the cheating actor, before he denied fatherhood of the tyke. If Victoria keeps up this cattiness she might just be thought of as something more than a walking wardrobe, could she be considered witty and intelligent? Maybe that's a stretch.

Spice Girls to get matching tattoos

Mmm - matching tattoos, that's classy. We all know that the best way for slebs to advertise their love for one another is a quick trip to the tattoo parlour, and it seems that The Spice Girls are headed for Tattooland as we speak. Of course, the artwork designed will have a beautiful poignancy and significance that can only be best expressed by painful graffiti on the skin. David Beckham's tattoo artist has apparently been commissioned to come up with some such guff which features a circle with each of the girl's names and represents their journey. Each of their names? Their proper names, as no-one actually calls Posh Victoria surely? Are we going to have the Mel's written with initials or are we talking how their names would appear on their passports so as not to get confused? Maybe it could say Mel squared, like in maths - oh, such possibilities.

The official line is "the girls are all really keen to mark the momentous occasion, the only slight problem is that Mel C had sworn she would never have another tattoo. She's waiting to check out the final design before she decides. Emma will wait until she's given birth and is feeling up to the ordeal but they want to do it en masse anyway." So from that I understand that Sporty's not really interested (as she was rumoured to be with the reunion itself) and Emma really is a big baby.

Mel C worried about having children

Melanie Chisholm (aka Singing Spice aka The Ugly One From The Spice Girls aka Sporty Spice) is worried that she might not be able to have children because of her ridiculously extreme fitness regime during the heyday of the Spice Girls. The singer, who announced last week that she has reunited with the band for a reunion tour this December (and unwittingly let us all know that the mortgage payments are getting a bit tight) has spoken out about her concerns over conceiving.

She told The Sun: "I got so thin when I wasn’t eating my periods stopped and my bones become very fragile. I may have done permanent damage. I hope I’m still in with a chance. It took me a long time to recover from the whole experience that was the Spice Girls. I had put pressure to on myself to look a certain way. I went to the gym constantly and trained constantly. I wasn’t eating properly. I wanted to get as perfect as I could knowing that perfection is impossible and that got me very sick.”

Chisholm admitted: "I’m happy with my situation but I want to be a mum and I’d like more than one child." Now, if only she could get laid...

Spice up your life: They're back!

There are those who look back at the 90's with a fond tear and a wistful remembrance of their platforms and over sized hoodies, and others for whom that decade creates memories of social awkwardness and acne. In either case the Spics Girls won't have gone unnoticed and now, practically a decade on hey are reforming to grace us with their vocal talents girl power ethos and yummy mummy status. You can take the baby out of a of a woman but you can't take the girl out of spice, and here we have Dominatrix Spice, Bi Curious Spice, Boho Spice, Preggers Spice and Burlesqu Spice ready to grace our TVs once again. Watch out for hissy fits, diva demands, and of course the 'my spice is better than yours' inevitable arguments. From this pic it seems that Victoria is angling for the top spot and as a WAG and size zero she has definite points in her favour.. but then Geri has a child called Apple Lemon Blueberry Madonna.

In the news: The Spice Girls can't sing and Britney hates her mum

-The much beloved Michael Parkinson is to give up TV. After 36 years in the business he has interviewed pretty much everyone, from Muhammad Ali to Fred Astaire, and is well overdue a bit of time off. [Channel 4 ]

-Despite Mrs Spears claiming her daughter is her 'most treasured child', it seems these sentiments are returned with Britney having allegedly issued a restraining order against her mother, to prevent her from visiting her sons. there are also rumours that mommy dearest likes to abuse prescription medication, and no one likes a doped up granny round their little ones. [Metro ]

-Paris Hilton went right out of prison and right to the beauty salon.. well, in true Hilton style they came to her. At 9.30am this morning Paris had Dream Catchers hair extensions in the privacy of her home, "Full length, 20 inches of extensions....blonde, of course," said the Dream Catchers rep. So much for Paris's new superficial free lifestyle. [A Socialite's Life ]

-Yes we all know the Spice Girls are reforming.. but did you know that the delightful harmonies of Wannabe will be spiced up with a lotta digital power? Apparently ten years on their singing talents have decreased somewhat, so the tech is necessary to prevent mass rioting amongst the fans. "As they sing, the computer program corrects the mistakes so that the sound comes out as the desired sound - so they appear to be able to sing really well live," said an industry source.

The Spice Girls Reunion.. and the rules

Yes, the spice up your life lot who brought girl power to the 90's with short skirts, bad voices and a penchant for waving their hands around a lot are making a come back. Add a  couple of years, a few stretchmarks and some failed attempts at solo careers, the biggest band is back, and planning to take us by storm again. That is of course, if they abide by certain rules. Rules you say? Is this the strange dating etiquette book that was so popular a few year back? Well, not quite, but in a similar vein the rules revolve around keeping a man happy, so in that sense it's still very  Victorian, The man though is Simon Fuller, ex manager and pop mastermind. The mogul  has given them strict instructions to stay schtum on their earnings, and pregnancy is not allowed either. I'm so glad that girl power has reached this level.

Mel B sets the lawyers on Eddie Murphy

He may have supplied the voice for Donkey in Shrek, but Eddie Murphy's about to see an entirely new level of ass kicking. Ex Spice Girl Mel B has apparently been taking her pick of top Hollywood lawyers to ensure she gets a big sack of cash, after he dumped her despite her being pregnant, and then demanded a DNA test.

The Sun reports that last night, Mel told a journalist pal: "I’m determined to take him to the cleaners. He’s going to get a shock if he thinks I’m taking this kind of treatment lying down. He’s a cheating, lying scumbag — he’s the father of my baby and he knows it."

I think it was dumping her via an interview on Dutch TV that really hurt. I mean, he could've at least saved it for Oprah. I'm guessing the couple will also be wanting to engage top Hollywood cosmetic surgeons too, to get rid of those matching tattoos...

Katie To Play Posh

Now, please understand that here at Star Trip we're not the sort of people who will judge an artistic endeavour before we've seen/heard it.  That would be wrong and ignorant of us.  But, faced with the rumour that Tom Cruise has pitched the idea of a David Beckham biopic - let's just say eyebrows were raised.  The fact that Paramount optioned the movie caused those same eyebrows to move higher.  And, well, certain people will be taking tweezers to the backs of their necks in future with the news that Katie Holmes is set to play Posh.

A British actor is being lined up to play Becks, which will undoubtedly lead to guesswork aplenty in the press.  No word yet on who'll play Rebecca Loos.  An insider said "Tom has a brilliant grasp of what the public want to see".  Really?  And he STILL made The Last Samurai?  [Toni Kelly]

Family Fears As Geri Loses Her Baby Weight

It feels wrong filing a story about Geri Halliwell under 'musical stars'. But anyway - Geri has sparked worry in her mother, Anna Maria, as the ex-Spice Girl has over three stone since giving birth to first daughter, Bluebell Madonna, in May. Everyone knows Geri's previous problems with eating disorders and her weight, and a source told 'Closer' magazine: "Anna Maria is happy that Geri is looking so fit and healthy at the moment, but she doesn't want her to slip into her old ways after all the problems she's had with food in the past. She doesn't want her to become too skinny again."

Geri is thought to be losing weight as she is set to release 'Disco Sister: The Very Best of Geri' - her greatest hits - toward the end of the year. There's many, many jokes I could make here, but I'll go with two simple questions: 1) Since when has anything Geri Halliwell's ever done been termed as 'disco''? 2) Just how short a track listing is now allowed for a greatest hits? Anyway, a friend of Geri's said: "Geri is very proud of her singing career and is really pleased with the album." Jolly good, Geri, just don't go mad with the diet and exercise.

The pair are, according to new magazine, living in Eddie's Los Angeles mansion as they plan their September wedding. A source said: "Mel just wants her and Eddie's close family to be there for the simple blessing. But they will be inviting their friends to a lavish wedding breakfast reception afterward."

Coleen vs. Victoria For Battle As Number One WAG.

Coleen McLoughlin has seriously put fellow footballers' wife Victoria Beckham's nose out of joint. Victoria, 32, is reported by Star magazine to be seething over Coleen's new place amongst the football WAGS and her continuing success as a fashionista. Victoria is so annoyed by her younger rival she's been calling in favours from designers like Roberto Cavalli and Donatella Versace, determined not to be outshone by tabloid favourite and all round good time girl Coleen.

During a WAG night out, instead of joining Coleen et al at the main table, Victoria and Cheryl Tweedy separated themselves from the pack and dined alone, supposedly discussing life in a girl band. Coleen and pals ran up a bar bill of £700, whilst the skinny popstar minnies spent just £47 on diet Coke and sushi. Way to enjoy yourselves, girls. [Toni Kelly]
