In 1997, my childhood began, because in 1994 the Spice Girls were created in the image of angels. I was only 8 at this time but I did my best to buy huge platform shoes and tube tops which looking back probably was not the best idea since I might have been a little chunk. But back then I was amazing...I would even throw in the horrible bad British accent which I am still perfecting to this day. It's a life goal. These girls changed my life and need some sort of award. According to my wiki sources the demand for their first two albums was unprecedented, making them the most successful British band since the Beatles...THE BEATLES!
Why are you talking about the Spice Girls...didn't they all get pregnant or fat, you might be asking. My answer would be HULU. We all know that Hulu is a college kids road to actual civilization and utter sanity. This letter gem from heaven brought me a blast from the past in movie form. SPICE WORLD. That is definitely a world that I want to live in. We came across it last night on Hulu in a search for a movie to watch, and on the second page under most popular movies there it was in all of it's girl power glory. SPICE WORLD!
First of all I appreciated all of the little dirty comments that probably subconsiously soaked into my brain as a tween. Secondly, aliens? I definitely forgot about that part. But I'm not going to judge, in SPICE WORLD anything is possible. Third, Ginger Spice (my personal favorite) was kinda the slu of the group. This possibly might make sense now...But I never realized how much of a feminist she was. Constantly through the movie she said "Girl power...equality of the sexes". At a younger age I was like girl power yah! (but had no idea) But now I'm all about it. Thanks Geri for being such an inspiration.
That is pretty much a tank top and panties. I never realized what a scandal this was at a younger age. I just embraced, copied, and adored her fashion sense. PS. REALLY POSH?
What I NEVER want to forget is the power of GIRL POWER.
As Ginger so delicately puts it "Strength and courage and a Wonderbra!"
