SOOOO, here’s the story from A to Z: Mel B shot an episode of Piers Morgan’s ITV show Life Stories on Friday, and he asked her about the rumors that she and fellow Spice Girl Geri Halliwell had ever sex. Mel B side-stepped the question at first, giving the canned response of “Yeah, we all SLEPT together in the same bed, dummy.” (I’m paraphrasing, but only lightly.)
Morgan kept at it, and eventually Mel B said that yes, it did happen (per E! Online):
“Did you sleep with Geri ‘like that’? Piers asked.
Mel B nodded and smiled, and said, “She’s going to hate me for this because she’s all posh in her country house and her husband. But it’s a fact. It just happened and we just giggled at it and that was it.”
Mel B went on to explain it was “just a fun thing” and that they were both best friends at the time. She also said that she hopes Geri will back her up on this. But according to The Sun, Geri is “more than a bit miffed” and says Mel B has “blown it out of all proportion.” Mel B’s alleged admissions has put their friendship and the reunion tour in a bad place, according to a source. Bah!
What is the truth? Is the Spice Girls reunion tour cursed? Every time they get a little close, something seems to happen—or Victoria Beckham just comes around and says “No way” through her publicist and saunters off into the distance.
