Mels B and C are not rowing about over the Spice Girls musical

Melanie C has dismissed claims that she and Mel ‘Mel’ B have fallen out over the Spice Girls musical as “nonsense”.

Today’s story in The Daily Mail (which originated in the New York Post two days ago) alleges that “Scary and Sporty are preventing the production from moving forward” by bickering, which is driving the show’s author Jennifer Saunders “crazy”.

However, Mel C tweeted her former bandmate this afternoon saying: “Seen the nonsense in the Daily Mail today! Hilarious x.”

Viva Forever is due to premiere in London before the year’s end.
