Mel C Prays For a Hit

MEL C is taking
no chances with her second album it seems she has been having chats to
God to make sure its a hit. And the ex-SPICE GIRL has worked out a time-saving
technique as she rushes to get in shape for the release by combining prayer
sessions with jogging.
Mel is finishing the follow up to her No1 hit Northern Star and hopes to release the first single from it by the end of the year.
A witness said: She was working out in Santa Monica when she suddenly got down on her haunches and started praying. I dont know if she was praying to God or praying to her instructor to give her a break."
Or maybe shes just praying her singing career doesnt go the same way as the other Spice Girls.

Mel Spotted!

Again in as many weeks, Mel has been spotted by Heat magazine readers in London.
Here's the latest sighting:
"Mel
C going into the World Cancer Research Fund building on Harley Street
and positively glowing with health"
'Hi, According to the Utrecht judge the unnamed man threatened to kill
the singer.
Once he came to meet her in London to offer her a package. The man's
solicitor said his client had no intentions of harming Mel C. "He only
dreamed of sharing a happy life with her," René Zilver said. "Love fantasies
have pushed him to this deviating behaviour." The judge has freed the
man on condition he doesn't phone the singer, send her packages nor
come near her. He also has to see a psychiatrist.
An investigating magistrate will travel to London in the next few
months to question Mel C. It's not true that she recorded a cover of ABBA's 'SOS'.
Yes, 'Here it Comes Again' is a song from her solo album (amongst
many others), but her album isn't coming out for quite a while because
she still is working on cleaning it up... to make it the best for
all of us. There is also no title for it yet.
The new version of 'Independence Day' will not be on her album,
it will just be on the 'Bend it like Beckham' soundtrack.
It's true about the World Cup song she recorded, although it
was not confirmed that the song title is 'Pop it in the Onion Bag'.
Many artists are contributing to this album, not just her. It wasn't
confirmed if it was with Keith Allan, but it was confirmed that she
did in fact record a song that is going to be on a World Cup album. and...
Rumour Warning!!!!!
According to the "News Of The World", Melanie C recorded a World
Cup song together with Keith Allen the title being Pop It In The Onion
Bag. The reporter also claimed that he heard a song, Here It Comes
Again, from her new album and said it was "tops".
I think its highly unlikely that a song would be called "Pop
It In The Onion Bag" for the WORLD CUP, do you?? Who the hell is Keith
Allen anyway? This time last year, I recall looking at the list of BTC-P entries
and seeing the many prestigious drivers I was competing against in
my class. I could have picked at least ten race winners from it. All
I wanted to do was break into that top ten and anything else would
have been a bonus. By the end of the season, I’d had a pole position,
three podium places and finished 8th in the Production Class. There
were highs and there were lows but the highs far outweighed the lows
last season. I’d achieved everything I wanted to and more. All in
all, it was a very successful year.
This year, I’ve been lucky enough to land a drive with Triple Eight
Engineering in Team Egg Sport alongside experienced driver, Matt Neal.
It’s a dream come true. Not only do I have the wisdom of Matt Neal
but I also have Vauxhall drivers, Yvan Muller and James Thompson at
hand with good advice as well. I’m learning from the best and that’s
reassuring, as I know that it’s going to be a steep learning curve.
I have settled in with the Banbury based team and I am surrounded
by professionals who are all 100% behind me. It’s all about working
as a team for me this year although I have my sights set on my own
personal goals this season. I want to gain as much experience as I
can, finish in the top eight and to visit the podium at some point
during the season!
Hopefully, I’ll see you guys there!
All the best,
Paul O’Neill Unfortunately, due to recording commitments, Mel's unsure whether
she'll be able to attend its premier.
The Soundtrack to the film will be available from Monday 8 April
and features TWO Mel songs, the new Independence Day as well as I
Turn To You. PROOF once again that MEL C is the only half-decent solo Spice Girl.
She's just finished her second album - which is set to come out in
September. She's straining so hard it looks as if she might even topple the
huge pole in a series of stretching exercises and pull-ups during
a gruelling six-mile run in Santa Monica, California. Under the watchful
eye of her personal trainer, Mel, 27, is getting in shape for next
month's Flora London Marathon. She's also hired a diet expert to help
her keep trim.
Last year Mel took Prozac after becoming depressed at piling on
the pounds and being unkindly labelled "Beefy Spice".
The singer - most successful of the solo Spice Girls - has been
working hard to restore her slimline figure, shedding a stone so that
she can show 30,000 rivals - including Ground Force gardener Chalrie
Dimmock and ex-boxer Frank Bruno - a clean pair of heels in the April
14 run. She'll be back in the UK in mid-March.
Egg has contracted rising star Paul O'Neill to drive in this year's
British touring Cars Championship. For the second year running Egg
will be partnering with Triple Eight Race Engineering, the team responsible
for the works Vauxhall Astra Coupes. The commercial started on Tuesday, 19 February to coincide with
London Fashion Week and can be seen with the film Ocean's Eleven in
cinemas throughout the UK. It is also set to be shown in a number
of other countries where fur is worn over the coming year.
I just heard back from a person at the Spice head office (who I think only
work for Mel C now).
They strongly suggest that for anybody who has Melanie C's home address,
to not give it out, and they respect the Denden members who have respected
Mel C's privacy this way (so yes, they are aware that some respectful fans
are not giving out Mel C's address). They also *discourage* fans
to write to Melanie C's private home address.
If people do want to write to Melanie (and prefer not to use email) then
they can still use the old fan club address:
Melanie C
PO Box 25777
London
SW20 8WE
All the letters are opened and sent to the mgmt people at their office every
few weeks and they DO get read. Stamped addressed envelopes are often sent
back with a signed photo - it just takes a little while to sort through
them all.
Anyway, this is from an email directly from Spice mgmt, so there you go.
Angie'
Please remember Melanie is only human and after what happened last October
with the sicko sending weird stuff, we all knew that the above address should
have been used in the first place. Let's not kid ourselves on that one.

Melanie is well known for having one or two (or 100) pairs of trainers
in her wardrobe, and as you may have read in the letters section she plans
to auction a load of them off for charity in the new year.

Title: Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes Killed
in Car Smash...
Date: 26/04/02
Source: BBC News
Friends and fellow recording artists have been speaking about the loss
to the music world of R&B star Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes who has died in a
car crash.
The 30-year-old, who was on holiday in Honduras, was reportedly among
seven people in the car and was the only fatality.
Spice Girl Melanie C, who recorded a hit single with the TLC singer, is
among those leading the tributes. The pair collaborated on the UK number
one hit Never Be the Same Again in 2000. Melanie C said she was very "shocked
and upset" following the news and that her thoughts were with her friends
and family. She added Lopes had been a "delight" to work with. Melanie
C had a number one single with Lopes in 2000. Lopes took the UK by storm
when she was invited to host the 2000 Music of Black Origin Awards (Mobo)
in London with BBC Radio 1 DJ Trevor Nelson. Nelson said: "Lisa was part
of the most amazing girl group of the '90s. They were a credible crossover
band that paved the way for most female groups that followed. "She was
the 'crazy' in Crazy Sexy Cool and I had the privilege of presenting the
Mobos with her a couple of years ago which was great fun. "Waterfalls
will forever be an R&B classic." Mobo founder Kanya King admitted she
was slightly apprehensive about Lopes hosting the event because of her
"notorious reputation". But she told BBC News 24 that as soon as she arrived,
complete with bright green wig, the organisers knew they had made the
right decision.
Inspiration
"Unfortunately, her press coverage was not about her fantastic musical
ability and the inspiration to many people, but that is how we will remember
her," said Ms King. Ms King put Lopes' popularity down to the fact she
had the image of standing up to the recording establishment and speaking
her mind, becoming an inspiration for her young fans. "She was a gifted,
talented artist with a colourful style and personality that will be remembered
forever," she added. Rising R'n'B star Tweet, who is currently collaborating
with top R'n'B producer and singer Missy Elliot, paid tribute to her contemporary.
"I was totally in shock the whole morning because it takes me back to
Aaliyah," she told BBC Radio 1. "(Lopes) was one a kind, she definitely
had her own style, way of dressing and rapping, the way she was one of
a kind."
Lopes is the second young R&B superstar to die suddenly in the past year.
Singer and actress Aaliyah was killed in a plane crash in the Bahamas
in August 2001.
