1997: Spice Girls Just Wanna Have Fun



Helen Hunt.

I like Helen Hunt, and it's not just because I've been highly warm for her form.



However, leave us not kid ourselves...



Hunt's first feature film as a director was released this year, unfortunately, it was not well-received (I haven't seen it).

The Spice Girls.

They’ll run me out of Seattle on a rail for saying this, but I'm kinda glad "grunge" was supplanted on the pop scene by the likes of the Girls. They were attractive, yes, but one or two of their records also threw down.

This was my favorite. I'll stand up for it as a good song...even the part that's a total rip-off of Wham's "Everything She Wants."



As you may have heard, the girls recently concluded a ridiculously successful reunion tour. Most of them have had babies, with the exception of Sporty Spice, who for some reason can't find the right fella.

In a related story:
David Beckham has reportedly been texting burlesque dancer Dita Von Teese.

The soccer star - who has three sons with former Spice Girls singer Victoria Beckham - is said to be so impressed by 35-year-old Dita's "raunchy routine" he got her number so he could express his gratitude.


Maybe he likes being reminded of what a woman's body looks like.

Actually I recently read an interview with Sporty Spice Mel C, where she said that she's very happy with her partner but she's not ready for kids yet. She seems very mature and self-aware.
