Are the Spice Girls launching a talent show to find cast for new musical?
When it was recently reported that plans for a new Spice Girl musical were in the pipeline, we all wondered who'd be able to play Victoria, Geri, Mel B, Mel C and Emma.

A source told the paper:
"This is an idea which appeals to all of the original members.
"It's a fantastic new way to broaden out the Spice franchise and cash in on their personalities, their story and their songs.

"The concept could even be replicated in other countries. The sky is the limit with this one."
Victoria recently appeared on American Idol while Mel C has an upcoming role in Blood Brothers, so they have plenty of experience. We just wonder who'd like the Simon Cowell role on the panel...
