George Michael has claimed that the Spice Girls changed the British music industry for female singers.
Speaking to In:Demand, the 47-year-old said that the girl group were to thank for encouraging today's crop of female talent, including the likes of Adele and Jessie J.
"I know people don't take them seriously, but I think the Spice Girls changed the entire landscape and British music's massively under-exploited female talent," Michael said.
"These girls now that are out there are absolutely giving the Americans a run for their money. They come from that generation that ran around the playgrounds going 'Girl Power'."
He added: "I think that's fantastic."
