She says:

"I would dearly love to hook-up with Mel C again. We've spoken about it and she's really keen on the idea too. The Spice Girls were massive in America, but it would be nice for Mel to have a hit of her own there. Maybe this will be the one."

Emma will appear on a forthcoming charity album in memory of Damilola Taylor along with Craig David and Mica Paris (as well as other artists yet to be named). The profits will go towards funding a youth centre in Peckham, South London.

Thanks Burnt Out.

Thanks to the lovely Stephen Melancon!

Thanks wow_fandk and RTL.

British tabloid News of the World is reporting that Victoria may say some pretty damning things in her upcoming autobiography 'Learning To Fly'. This includes comments on Geri such as:

"I can't stand Geri. I haven't seen her since a party we were both at in the south of France a couple of years ago and I'm pleased about that fact. She is one of the most disloyal people I've ever known. When she walked out of the Spice Girls, she almost split up an entire band with her selfish behaviour."

Victoria also apparently wanted David to sign with a London club instead of re-signing with Manchester United in 1998, as she felt removed from her friends and her family.

According to UK newspaper The Mirror, there is to be a reunion next month with all Spice Girls (sorry, Geri isn't included), so that they can catch up on gossip. That is a reunion with all Spices, minus Victoria.

The reason?

According to The Mirror, it's because of Mel B who is co-ordinating the event, supposedly she and Victoria are not on speaking terms. The reasons are unknown as to why but it is presumed it is because of the different paths their solo careers have taken.

A 'source' is quoted as saying:

"A rift has grown between Mel B and Victoria which is really serious. It is such a shame because the four of them always got on so well."

"He loves 'Every Part Of Me' which is on the album and he does feature a little tiny bit at the beginning. It's just like background noises, he's laughing and giggling. He was on the track by accident and then I played it back and thought it sounded cute, so I decided to leave him on."

Thanks Luke Peterson. :-)

Thanks Burnt Out.

On the same day, on BBC1, they will be showing 'There's Only One David Beckham' which the Radio Times reckons has a contribution from Victoria. On ITV, they will be showing 'Rich And Famous' which has an interview with Victoria eating pie and mash.

Thanks Orlando.

There is a rumor that this tracklisting was made up by a fan on the Internet, someone with obviously little of a life.

A 'friend' has told UK newspaper, the Sunday People that the rumours of Victoria having not only one, but two boob jobs are in fact true.

The 'friend' said:

"Victoria could no longer deny the truth. It was pretty obvious to everyone that her boobs are bigger than before. She said she was happy with her first boob job. But then after she lost a bit of weight, her breasts changed shape and didn't look as perky as they had before. So she decided to have another op to get the shape back. They are slightly bigger than before and they stick out much more."

The 'friend' says that what helped make Victoria spill the beans was during a recent magazine photo shoot.

"When she lay down her boobs didn't move and it was obvious something had been done, so someone asked her if she'd had a boob job. It didn't help that at the moment Victoria is very thin because she wants to look good to launch her solo album. So her bigger boobs are even more noticeable. She said she had it done fairly recently, although shewouldn't say exactly when and had wanted to keep it a secret.

Victoria is said to have had her first boob job in September 1999 and her second boob op, around April of this year.

The 'friend' also revealed that when Victoria wants to make Brooklyn laugh, she raises up her skirt and flashes her knickers. It has apparently worked without fail.

Commenting on her looks and David, she says:
I did worry a lot about my body image. Even now I look in the mirror and hate the way I look. David is the same. I look at him and say, 'But you're gorgeous, how can you be self-conscious?' But he is. We all have insecurities. When I first met David he wasn't what he is now. He was the same person, but he wasn't a pin-up. To me he's just David. I doubt he wakes up next to me and thinks he is lying next to one of the sexiest women in the world, cos when I wake up I look shocking. My hair sticks out in all directions.

On Britney Spears, Victoria says:
She's amazing. I think she looks great. We were like two crazed fans when we met. I had my camera and she had brought hers and we were both awestruck. I went, 'Oh my God, it's Britney Spears', and she went, 'Oh my God, it's Posh Spice', and we took pictures of each other.

On Geri, she says:
We have nothing in common. I don't speak to Geri at all any more. She is doing her thing and I'm doing my thing. I haven't seen her in the flesh in a long time.

On Brooklyn:
Oh no, he's so-o-o-o naughty. It's usually when we're in a shop, so it's really embarrassing. I've got white carpets and he has been sick all over them. He rides his scooter into my curtains too. I'm used to sick and poo.

Victoria Beckham has asked Belfast DJ Joe Ferguson to introduce her on stage at an outdoor gig in Liverpool later this month. "She remembered me from the last time I interviewed her and sang to her," said Joe, who left Belfast for Liverpool last year. "I couldn't believe it. I asked her for her home phone number to call her back just to make sure it was her, and it was. There's me sitting have a pint in a pub and Victoria Beckham calls me up. She said she listens to my programme every morning and was keen to get me to introduce her new song on stage, so of course I agreed."

Thanks Angelic Emma

Thanks Burnt Out.

Emma will be taking part in a webcast interview at Virgin Records next Wednesday 22 August and she has donated a pair of tickets to the event for one lucky fan to win. To enter the competition simply answer the following question: What is the title of Emma Bunton's solo album? Email your answer to competition@worldpop.com, titling your message 'Emma Bunton' and including your name, address and age. All normal worldpop terms and conditions apply. To submit your questions for the Emma webchat head over to her official site www.emmabunton.net.

There is a rumor going around that shortly after Christmas 2000, Geri rung up all the Spice Girls except for Emma. (This ties in with the rumor that Geri had rung up Victoria but Victoria was not there to answer).

I'm not sure about the August 20th entry. But that's what it says on the calendar.

From Dominic Mohan's 'bizarre' column in The Sun:

Posh Spice has blocked a remix of the single that wrecked her chances of topping the charts last year.

Truesteppers' revamped version of Spiller's 'Groovejet', mixed with Victoria Beckham's vocals from 'Out Of Your Mind' was due out September 17 - the same day as Posh's own single, 'Not Such An Innocent Girl'.

But lawyers from her record label Virgin banned it. So now Truesteppers are asking rival Spice Girl Geri Halliwell to copy Posh's vocal for the single! The row erupted when furious Posh heard about Truesteppers' plan to feature her voice on their new release.

She immediately got Virgin to fire off a letter to the BMG record company, who were planning to release the track. BMG owned the rights to her vocals but Victoria had retained the right to veto any remixes.

Sophie Ellis-Bextor has made up with Posh Spice. (The two went head-to-head last summer for the #1 position, with Sophie narrowly coming out on top.) Sophie says: "I just decided enough was enough, and I went and spoke to her and she seemed fine. She was in a dressing room next to mine a couple of days ago and we had a little chat and it was really nice. We spoke for a couple of minutes, so I think we can finally say there's no animosity there now."

Thanks Spice Girls Asia.

I didn't think the fan club would get a hold of a new Melanie C single before the official office does anyways. It should be noted that a fan was phoned by the fan club regarding prizes offered, but no new Mel C single was played over the phone, as far as the head office is aware. Thank you to the office for clearing this up for us.

Thanks Joseph Singh.

Thanks mel2vicem.

I'm not quite if this will be released in the UK, the US, or both.

• August 10: CD:UK rehearsals and Stars and Their Lives
• August 11: CD:UK performance, Radio 2 Accoustic Performance, Allinson show
• August 12: International Event at Star and Garter (Putney), Pepsi chart show
• August 14: MTV day (UK and international)

Victoria Beckham apparently logs on and contributes to her own message board here.

-= Rumor Warning =-

Please be respectful and don't all try to fight for her attention. :-)

Thanks Mert and SpicePower.net.

Thanks crazyspice.

Thanks Joseph Singh.

Thanks Stephen Melancon.

She loves REAL music like (the use of) guitar, rather than euro beats and dance although she likes dancing to it. "Scream If You Want To Go Faster" is her favorite Geri song. Geri is really friendly when they meet and they always hug, etc... the interview in the Mail magazine was exaggerated (apparently). She likes O-Town, OPM, Jennifer Lopez, and Missy Elliot at the moment, but didnt seem that keen on The Honeyz, even though she didnt say anything much regarding this.

Thanks halli#heaven.

Emma Bunton says she had a cancer scare last year. Baby Spice says doctors discovered a problem when she went for a routine smear test. She says pre-cancerous cells were found and have been removed.

"I had an operation where they took them out. It scared the living daylights out of me. I'm one of those people who doesn't really worry about health things. This was the first time. They sorted it out, it was all quick. You usually have smears every three years, but now I have one every year."

"I've known about this single for a while. I'm really not bothered. If it's released the same time as my new single Not Such An Innocent Girl at least I'm competing against myself in the charts!"

Thanks mel2vicem on the dotmusic forum!

I know the story is pretty pointless but I like it how Victoria seems to stay on the ground. I can certainly imagine her drinking a typical girls-night-out drink in Beckingham Palace ;-)

Thanks to Ugine M.

The video looks excellent!

BMG, who owns the right on Posh's vocals for Out Of Your Mind, is planning to release a new version of Spiller's Groovejet, which beat Out Of Your Mind to No1 last year, this time featuring Victoria's parts from Out Of Your Mind.

To make it even worse, BMG said that they are "hoping to release on the same week as her new single" which means Victoria would battle herself in the UK-charts.

Hehe, sounds interesting, I'm kinda excited what it will sound like :)

"All audience members will need to be available from approximately 6pm until 9.30pm and are required to be 18+ (photo ID may be required as the show is filmed in a night club). The studio is in Leicester Square, London and guests will need to make their own way there as we do not provide transport.

All interested parties can contact Sophie on 020 7240 2828 or e-mail with their phone number sophies@powerhousetv.co.uk and we will post out the tickets."

"I saw Chris Terrill's film 'Through the Eyes of the Old',and it really opened my eyes to the need for better communication between the generations. 'Through the Eyes of the Young' was something I could really relate to and wanted to be involved in.

I think it is so hard being young. When you're young, you've got so many expectations of life and you feel that people have so many expectations of you. That can be an enormous pressure. And then if you fulfill those expectations, there's a different kind of pressure. The Spice Girls shot to superstardom in a very short time. We've always been an example for young people out there who don't really have anything but dreams, but when you've had success at a very young age your priorities change.

I'm 27 now and I've come to realise that there are other things in life that are just as valuble as wealth and fame. 'Through the eyes of the Young' celebrates so many different ways of being successful and I think that is really important".

"I can't give you any names yet but some acts have asked me if they can have some of the tracks I didn't put on my album. There are some people that you probably know and also some new artists that are coming up. It's a very strange feeling knowing that a song that you've written might go to another band that's up there doing it.

I'd love to manage a band or a solo artist and more songwriting for other people is something I'm very interested in. I was asked about two weeks ago about my extra tracks. They said 'There's a track that didn't go on your album and such and such would like it,' and I was just like, 'Wow, that's amazing!'

At first I was a bit wary. There is one track they wanted and I was like, No, that's mine, I can't give that away! But I wrote about 40 songs for my album so there are a couple in there that are maybe not so me."
