.MelanieCmusic on Pride shows, billieeilish's impact and the spicegirls reunion: 'We don't want it to end'
“We have had the most incredible time,” Melanie C, aka Sporty Spice, tellsa few days before the last London show. “We were so excited about the show, but we never, never could have prepared ourselves for how incredible it's been.”
I performed with some of the queens for the first time last summer -- they do a festival called Mighty Hoopla here in London -- and we just had a ball. The reaction from the crowd was so fabulous, and everyone was talking about it. We wanted to build it, we wanted it to grow. So we just came up with the idea of getting on a Pride stage.
When you interact with LGBTQ fans, what do they tell you about your role in their lives? I imagine Sporty Spice means a lot of different things to a lot of different people. Obviously so much of the Spice Girls tour was about nostalgia and familiarity, but I’m curious about what’s surprised you this time -- songs you weren’t expecting to reconnect with, changes in your audience, memories that resurface or exist in a new light.
I can’t believe this journey. There was a time when I was like, “It's never going to happen. It's not going to happen again. The things we've done have been so incredible. We could never do that again.” But I think it was the amount of people that approached me saying how much they wanted to see the Spice Girls, how much it meant to them, how it affected them in their lives.
