Quick! Call Mary Ann Spice! (6/2/98)
Geri Halliwell, the artist formerly known as Ginger Spice, has apparently been scared away from the prefab phony British "pop" group by Scary Spice.This coup-de-ecrap played out over several days last week when most of the world was concerned with important things like nuclear escalation in the Indian subcontinent and the loss of someone with talent, Phil Hartman.
The new Gingerless Spice Girls first hurdle will be their upcoming North American tour. Some crucial decisions need to be made before them, such as whether or not to hire someone quickly to replace Geri, whether to refund ticket money to disgruntled fans, and whether or not astute Spice Girls fans will notice that, mysteriously, Geri's voice will still be audible during the concert.
Rumors that the Spice Girls contacted Herbie Hancock to see if he still had any of the robots from the "Rockit" video were vehemently denied by Spice representatives.
