Spice Girls Musical Closing Early

The Spice Girls musical playing in London's West End is called Viva Forever!, but its run will last only six months.

The Spice Girls musical playing in London's West End is called Viva Forever!, but its run will last only six months. It was confirmed today that Viva Forever! will close early in June, despite the best promotional efforts of Melanie Brown, Melanie Chisholm, Emma Bunton, Geri Halliwell, and Victoria Beckham. Due to poor ticket sales and worse reviews, backers of the production say they could not make the financials work. In a statement the Girls expressed their own thoughts, saying, "Although Viva Forever won't continue in the West End, we are thrilled that the thousands of people who came to the show had as much fun as we did."

Victoria Beckham and Her Boys Show Their Spice Girls Support

It was a Spice Girls reunion last night at their Viva Forever!

It was a Spice Girls reunion last night at their Viva Forever! premiere held at London's Piccadilly Theatre. Victoria Beckham was joined on the carpet by David, Romeo, Brookyn, and Cruz, while Harper skipped out on the celebration. Victoria was reportedly running a bit late and missed out on the opportunity to pose with her fellow Spice Girls, Mel B, Emma Bunton, Geri Halliwell, and Melanie Chisholm on the carpet but met up with them on stage to congratulate the performers afterward. Reviews of Viva Forever are rather brutal, but that didn't dampen the Girls' enthusiasm. It's been a few months since we've seen the group back together — the fab five famously closed out the Summer Olympics with a medley of their biggest hits.

The Beckhams are reportedly spending the holidays in England as David and Victoria continue house hunting overseas. It was another exciting year for the Beckhams, with Harper's first birthday and David's retirement from soccer ranking among their major milestones.

Gwyneth Paltrow hit the town in London last night to attend the opening party for Bodo's Schloss, a new restaurant. The spot, located on High Street Kensington, was created by Piers Adam, who also owns Mahiki, one of the royals' favorite bars, and The Punch Bowl pub with Guy Ritchie. Gwyneth's best friend, Cameron Diaz, also swung by the party. Earlier in the evening, Cameron wore Stella McCartney, a designer who's also close friends with the actresses, for the premiere of her new movie, Gambit. Cameron made the rounds at Bodo's with other famous pals like Elle Macpherson, designer Prabal Gurung, Natalia Vodianova, and Geri Halliwell.

The Spice Girls were back together at this evening's Closing Ceremony in London! The five girls — Victoria Beckham, Melanie Brown, Melanie Chisholm, Geri Halliwell, and Emma Bunton — reunited to sing the hit that made them famous, "Wannabe," as well as "Spice Up Your Life." We caught a glimpse of the Spice Girls rehearsing earlier this week, and they even polished off their moves with one last run-through this morning. For the big show, Victoria wore a dress from British designer Giles Deacon, and Geri even had a bit of Union Jack on her red mini.

It seems Victoria was excited to be back with her old bandmates, as she tweeted a couple picture of their preparations this afternoon. She also shared the quote, "Behind every success is effort, behind every effort is passion, behind every passion is someone with the courage to try." Mel B was also feeling the magnitude of the occasion. She tweeted, "What an amazing day today!" Emma, meanwhile, was in a girl power state of mind. She wrote, "It's all pink tonight, baby!"

The Spice Girls reunited yesterday to rehearse their routine for the Olympics closing ceremony! Their show will take place as the London 2012 Games come to an end on Sunday. Victoria Beckham was in head-to-toe black to belt it out alongside her former bandmates Melanie Brown, Melanie Chisholm, Emma Bunton, and Geri Halliwell. It seems their portion of the show will have a very British theme, as the Girls were seen singing atop black cabs at the Ford factory in East London. Victoria will have a turn to participate in the Games after her husband helped kick things off in the opening ceremony. David drove a speedboat carrying the Olympic flame up to the East London site of the Games on Friday, July 27.

Celebs are officially obsessed with the motorcycle-jacket trend, and we are super excited to see them varying the style from leather to suede. As you know, suede is just a form of leather with a napped finish, and its nonshiny appearance opens up a whole new category for the biker-chic trend.

Nail Geri Halliwell's Girlie Slash Edgy Even If You Don't Do Ruffles

Let me start by saying that ruffled miniskirts aren't everybody's cup of tea, but if they are yours, then let former Spice Girl Geri Halliwell be your inspiration.

Let me start by saying that ruffled miniskirts aren't everybody's cup of tea, but if they are yours, then let former Spice Girl Geri Halliwell be your inspiration. The singer attended an event in London wearing an outfit that manages to be equal parts girlie and edgy. Geri started up top with a black turtleneck, which she wore under a black leather motorcycle-style jacket. She then added a major dose of femininity to her tough upper body by sporting a silver metallic ruffled tiered miniskirt. The bad-girl vibe continued via black ankle booties and a studded black satchel. Now, if ruffled skirts conjure up too many traumatic childhood memories, fret not, you can just as easily mimic Geri's outfit with a moody floral skirt, sweet crochet skirt, or punchy A-line miniskirt. Just as long as you balance super girlie with major tough, you'll nail the look.

Pippa Middleton Has a Red-Hot Night Out With the Young Royals

Pippa Middleton showed some skin in a plunging red dress on Saturday night for the Boodles Boxing Ball at London's Park Plaza Westminster Bridge Hotel.

Pippa Middleton showed some skin in a plunging red dress on Saturday night for the Boodles Boxing Ball at London's Park Plaza Westminster Bridge Hotel. She was joined by many other members and friends of the royal family. Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie also dressed up for the occasion, as did Prince Harry's ex Chelsy Davy. Pippa and Kate's younger brother James threw on a tux much like aristocrat Henry Beckwith, who brought his apparently on-again girlfriend Geri Halliwell. The Boxing Ball is a big annual charity event in the UK, and Prince William attended three years ago with then-girlfriend Kate. It was underwritten by the jewelry company Boodles and proceeds went to benefit the Starlight Children’s Foundation and the Lieutenant Dougie Dalzell Memorial Trust. Pippa and boyfriend Alex Loudon met up once inside, and were seen sharing a passionate kiss after the bash as they waited for their car at around 4:30 a.m.
