Mel's answers to questions
Will you have more of an influence on the new Spice Girls album?
Roger
Mel: All of the Spice Girls have been very influential on all of our work and will continue to be on all our future albums.
Which boy group do you think shows the most respect for women and girl power?
Lauren
Mel: I think I'd have to say Boyzone because three of them are daddies!!!
What do you think of Geri's success after you saying she would be a flop?
Geri
Mel: I never said Geri would be a flop. I knew she would be successful, and I'm very happy she is.
Are you trying to appeal to a more adult market with your solo material?
Dominic
Mel: I'm not aiming my music at any particular audience. Whoever wants to listen is very welcome.
Hi Melanie! When will your official site be open? Will we be able to pre-order your singles and album from there?
Rob
Mel: My solo site is already up and running and is called www.northern-star.co.uk - There are no plans to sell CDs directly but that's a good idea for the future.
I heard a rumour that there will be a second Spice World movie that is in the making for 2001. Is this true?
Ketan
Mel: At the moment we have no plans for a second movie. We're concentrating on our third album and touring.
I have heard that you no longer want to do the types of promotions that you did in the earlier years of Spice. Does this mean that the collector dolls, candy, Polaroids, toys, and home videos will all go?
Sindy
Mel: There will still be Spice Girls merchandise available but we will promote our records with live shows.
Does it annoy you when people 'knock' you for doing something different (e.g. booing at Heaton Park - a brilliant set I thought by the way !! ), when if you were there as the 'Spice Girls' you would no doubt be headlining and being fawned over ??
Cheers, Wendy
Mel: Firstly, thank you. I'm so glad you liked the set. Everybody's entitled to an opinion so I don't mind as long as they give me a fair chance.
Why do you have a gold tooth?
Johanna
Mel: No real reason, I just fancied one!
How much can you bench press?
Hal
Mel: I don't know but I'm a lot stronger than I used to be. I find strength varies from day to day.
What type of music is your new album? How many songs are on it?
Hanna
Mel: There are 12 songs on my new album, Northern Star. It's all pop but the styles vary from rock, R&B, dance and some acoustic stuff.
What's the most important thing if you want success? Is it right attitude or is it the love of the music?
John Pemberton
Mel: Everybody's different but for me I think they're both important.
What is your favorite song from your Northern Star album?
Angie Hung
Mel: It's really hard to say because I love them all, as I do the Spice Girls' songs.
