First We Get Hacked, Then The Spice Girls...  
Sunday, November 25th, 2007

The Spice Girls have joined us in the long list of victims of cybercrime.  Several websites have claimed to be representing the Spice Girls and sent out a cancellation for one of their concerts - but it was a fake.  A spokesman for the group said that contrary to the false information, the girls will still be scheduling a gig in Buenos Aires in February.

"The Spice Girls would like to make it clear that they have not cancelled their Buenos Aires show," the spokesman said in a statement.  "A story has appeared on several webesites that includes a fake e-mail and competition from the girls.  The fake e-mail claims that due to the demand so far in the UK and the US this show is going to be cancelled.

"The e-mail goes on to say that they will be running some competitions for their South American fans to travel to the UK to watch a show.

"This is not the case and the e-mail is 100% unofficial and has nothing to do with the Spice Girls."

Emma "Baby Spice" Bunton, Geri "Sexy Spice" Halliwell, Melanie "Scary Spice" Brown aka Mel B., Melanie "Sporty Spice" Chisholm, and Victoria "Posh Spice" Beckham will be kicking off their world tour on December 2nd.  (And, no, I did not know all of their full names and Spice titles off the top of my head, I looked them up...)
