Sporty & Pudgy

Filed under: Personally Perez > Anglophilia > Melanie C.

aimg_0610.jpg

Thursday night, we had the pleasure of going to Melanie C.'s acoustic show at The Mint in Los Angeles. And, the Spice Girl known as Sporty was kind enough to invite Perezzz to her sound check.

We met Melanie (for the first time) and she was a delight!

She was the last Spice Girl to want to jump on board the reunion bandwagon, but she told us that she is having a blast.

And we love the fact that she performed to almost 20,000 at the Staples Center on Wednesday and the following evening she performed to less than 200.

She's doing it for all the right reasons. Melanie C. loves music and is in this game for the long haul.

We can't express how much we love her solo stuff. It is smart, sophisticated, beautiful, touching, brilliant pop. You all should check it out.

Click here to check out some of her solo songs.

Mel told us that she hopes to do more solo gigs in America, a country she rarely tours in. It's quite convenient for her - her band from the U.K. is part of the Spice Girls band.

If you weren't able to go to the show at The Mint, then CLICK HERE to watch Melanie C's exquisite acoustic rendition of her internationally adored smash hit I Turn To You.

Girl power!!!

    seriously, the Spice Girls?!! i was open to the idea of a reunion tour, but it is kind of pathetic when there are four or five middle aged women trying to act as if they are as young as they were ten years ago. i tivo'ed the victoria secret show to see them and it was just awkward and sad for me.

    Mel C is lame-ass! Her songs are mediocre at best. Makes Geri look like Barbara Streisand…

    Mel C is the bomb. I saw her in Sydney at 'the Metro'. I think it was just before 'Northern Star' came out. She is so amazing. 'Northern Star' is one of my fave recordings. Pity her later efforts were not properly promoted by her record company.

  37. *john says – reply to this


    37

    I've been a HUGE fan of Melanie's since I was young. I remember having to ORDER her Northern Star CD because the local record store didn't even have it coming in when I called! This Time is definitely her best!

    I HOPE TO GOD she tours somewhere on the east coast. I'll be in heaven. I'm right there with you perez! ! ! ! !

  39. Perez You Are A Fuckin Sell-Out says – reply to this


    39

    You have turned into a kiss ass sellout. Just because you meet someone you shouldn't lose your objectiveness. The people who visit this site, yes they have made you famous, will discover you are a fuckin phony. The Old Spice Girls are the most over-rated mother fuckers around, besides you of course.

  49. Eathan says – reply to this


    49

    Melanie C needs a new manager and a new record company that will actually care to promote her. Her music is awsome and it needs to be heard globally.
    I would make her big in Japan, Australia, Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, USA and Canada.
    Her manager doesn't have a clue about promoting her!

    Aww, isn't that cute… The morbidly obese Mario still thinks of himself as merely "pudgy". Kelly Osbourne is pudgy. Jack Black is pudgy. You are GROTESQUELY OBESE. CALORIE CONTROL!!!! NOW!!!!

  52. BamBam says – reply to this


    52

    Pudgy??? Try disgustingly obese. You certainly have a distored self-image of yourself.

  53. you suck says – reply to this

    I can't stand the fact that Perez can't afford to buy his own clothes and needs to get what he wears donated. Poor Perez….sombody give him some money so that he doesn't need to pimp himself out. (BTW, the pants are truly fugly.

  62. allie says – reply to this


    62

    Anyone notice how Mel won't even touch Perez….Can't say as I blame her. She looks like she's gritting her teeth and saying "hurry up and take the picture…this guy stinks."

    Dude your back fat is simply gross! You got to do something about your weight before you drop dead. It's nasty to look at and it's terrible for your health. With your weight and your karma you are really taking some chances!

    Talk about having a high opinion of yourself. You are an overweight, out-of- shape, unhealthy, slovenly mess and not even very attractive… not that you can't make yourself look worse in that pic.

    Kay, like seriously Perez Hilton.
    You really NEED to get a life,
    Like fuck you think your all high and mighty because you hide
    In a coffee shop all day and blog.
    Sorry bud but YOUR NOT COOL.
    Like how can you SIT there and Criticize other ppl?!?!
    Like do you even own a mirror? Like come on buddy
    And yes you might not care what ppl say but seriously
    Stop being such a god dame dick.

    Take a look around once and a while. You’re not even as famous as you think you are.

  84. COACH SMART says – reply to this


    84

    What is that fooling blond v stripe on your shirt parez. I also recommend that you wear a less revealing shirt as we can see your breast (which are bigger than Mel C”s) and your spare tire.

  85. Pris says – reply to this


    85

    Perez this one is for you … for someone who is always attacking celebrities for what they do or wear you should be the first to criticize yourself cause you are ridiculous from head to toe from inside to outside and please get a mirror a fitness regime an extreme extreme extreme makeover and then a stylist and if u can do all that … then u can have a go to all celebrities and other people till then just shut your mouth or better dissapear from the world you and all the negative people who support you … unbelievable how the world is going people just look for the negative reasons thats why i wrote this to you to see if u like what u do to others u scum bag

    92

    Pay at least a little attention to your skin tone before you pick a hair color. That shade of yellow? Not flattering for you at all. And don't wear your clothing too tight — it only adds pounds to the look.

    IF YOU THINK PARIS IS DISCUSTING YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN ME LAST NIGHT. MY GIRLFRIEND WALKED INTO THE BEDROOM AND I WAS LAYING IN BED AND HAD A MASSIVE TWIX ON MY GUT THAT WAS STICK OUT OF MY SHIRT AND MY BALLS AND PUBES WERE SHOWING THROUGH MY BOXERS. IM KINDA FAT AS WELL

  94. Jessica says – reply to this


    94

    Did someone on here actually call the Spice Girls middle aged? When I think "middle aged," a bunch of girls in their early 30s aren't exactly what come to mind. Geri is the oldest at 35. Good for them that they can continue to wow people these days…people would be bitching if they were a bunch of 16 & 17 year olds too. I wish them all success, they're great.

    Wow…dude…you need to get a shirt that fits. Those rolls aren't a good look. Can't say much for the double chin either. For ass much crap you give other people…I'd invest in a tredmill instead of hair dye. Aside from you blubber….You've got a great site…Keep up the good work…You Yellow Haired Chunky Monkey
