Melanie C does not believe that the Spice Girls from back then could have been so successful in today’s social media world.
The Spice Girls would not have been as successful today as they were in the 90s, Sporty Spice now claims personally. This was mainly due to the fact that the girls were building so much crap back then that the network would have been flooded.

You were young …
The girl group – consisting of Mel C, Mel B, Geri Horner, Victoria Beckham and Emma Bunton – made their worldwide breakthrough in 1996 with their first single ‘Wannabe’. Looking back and with the knowledge of today’s social media, the singer Melanie C (46) is more than grateful that Instagram and Co. simply did not exist at that time. So the girls could really let the sow out of the spotlight.
The 46-year-old told the Daily Star newspaper: “We were young and we went out. We had fun. We made mistakes and it was not recorded anywhere. Of course, we were dealing with the paparazzi, but I just sympathize with the young artists nowadays because they are so exposed that they cannot hide anywhere else. ”

At that time, the five still enjoyed a certain degree of privacy: “When you are young, you sometimes do stupid things and you don’t want the world to know about it.”
That’s why she tries to give her younger colleagues advice. The 46-year-old added that she was aware that she was falling on deaf ears: “I always want to give young artists advice. I don’t want them to make the same mistakes I do, and sometimes they have to think, ‘Oh shut up, grandma.’ ”(Bang)
