snoop1130 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Mel C says she has spent ‘too long being quiet’ By Roisin O'Connor Singer Melanie Chisholm has said she made herself “really ill” after suffering with image problems during her time as a member of the Spice Girls. Speaking on Desert Island Discs, Chisholm, known as Mel C, suggested that her moniker “Sporty Spice” was partly to blame for her struggle with eating disorders. “I read about myself and wondered who that person was,” she said. “I am sporty and athletic, but I am quite soft and gentle really. “I was described as the plain one at the back. So I tried to make myself perfect. I ended up making myself really ill. I was anorexic for a few years. I was exercising obsessively and I ended up being incredibly depressed. I was in denial.” Full Story: https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/music/news/mel-c-desert-island-discs-bbc-radio-2-spice-girls-sporty-eating-disorder-a9353116.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post CharlieH Posted February 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 24, 2020 I expect we could all recall unpleasant experiences from 20 years ago ! But then most dont need to crave publicity and column inches on failing to non existent career. Seems pretty deperate to me to be dragging this up now. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least you're giving her the benefit of the doubt that what they turned out "may" have been considered music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hated them when they were popular. Best thing ever happened to them when they sacked their manager and vanished from the music world. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
