How Sporty Spice Fell In Love With An Aussie! Uncut with Melanie Chisholm

Today’s guest is someone who defined an entire generation.
As one-fifth of the most iconic girl group in history, the Spice Girls, she helped shape pop culture, redefine girl power, and influence how millions of young women saw themselves.

Melanie C or Sporty Spice as many of us first knew her is a dancer, singer, songwriter, author, and performer whose career spans nearly three decades. Today we wanted to chat with Melanie about what that journey was really like behind the scenes, how she carved out her own path with her solo career, the various things she is doing now and what it meant to her to have such an impact on our culture.

We chat:

  • Mel being recognised during a medical appointment
  • Recording her 9th studio album here in Australia
  • Why Melanie feels connected to the Australian culture
  • How Mel met her Aussie boyfriend
  • How the Spice Girls started
  • The brutality of the UK media and all of their phones being hacked
  • How being so young in the public eye affected Mel and contributed to her having an eating disorder
  • How the Spice Girls didn’t choose their own nicknames
  • They love like sisters and bicker like sisters
  • How Geri choosing to leave affected them all differently
  • The Spice Girl that Melanie is now closest to
  • Starting her solo career
  • Whether they could all live off of royalties now and if they ‘choose’ to work

You can find everything from Melanie including her new song ‘Sweat’ at her website

You can follow Melanie on Instagram
