The Spice Girls were an amazingly successful singing group which rose to the top of the pop music charts in the mid-1990s. After that they had ups and downs. And like most pop groups, it is unlikely that they would stand the test of time. However, the story of how they became successful is very interesting.
In fact the girls, who applied to the ad, and formed the first group, were not really the Spice Girls. The fa’st band was called Touch, and it did not include Emma Button. A girl called Michelle Stevenson was one of the Original stars chosen--and she did not last. Now known as "Unlucky Spice", Michelle Stevenson was replaced by Emma Button in July of that year, and the band was renamed "Spice".
It was not until the following March that the group sat down with their new manager, Simon Fuller. Fuller taped short extracts of different songs by the girls, and sent them to various big record companies. Several companies tried to do a deal, and the Virgin label finally won; they signed a contract worth an estimated two million pounds. After this, they were renamed the Spice Girls.
In March 1996, two years after the advertisement, the five Spice Girls--Jeff, Mci B, Mel C, Victoria and Emma--gave the performance of their lives. One of them met a TV producer in a ladies toilet, and they at once gave her a demonstration of what they could do. She was so impressed by their singing that she asked them to sing on her TV show. They were an immediate hit. Within a month, Wannabe came out--in July 1996---and within two weeks it was top of the charts. It stayed there for two months.
