Looks that way.. tho Emma Bunton is also another canditate.. and Geri Halliwell could be on the cards as well if her next few singles don't 'do the bizz' ;) Posh's album didn't even crack the top 100 albums chart here! And it only spent 2-3 weeks in the UK top 75. I know it's mean, but I can't help but laugh at their lack of success. C'mon - they have no musical talent. Some of the Spice Girls' stuff may have been 'fun pop fluff' and OK for what it is.. but it's insulting that Posh Spice has a solo deal when she clearly can't sing. Nathan. .

That's exactly what I have thought. I mean.. if a million people rang up and voted for something by Denis Walter (god forbid)... d'ya really think they would play it, even though it made #1? I don't think so. It would be obvious that the vote had been rigged. Similarly, if Winter DOES make it into the net 50.. it isn't going to be half obvious that the votes were rigged. The only time I have ever heard Winter played on ANY radio station was when JJJ played it during the Tori j-files in '98. Nathan. .
