Victoria’s paparazzi trail surprises Emma Bunton

London, July 5 (IANS) Spice Girls singer Emma Bunton is surprised by the media always hounding her band mate Victoria Beckham because she always thought of her as just a normal friend and mother. Victoria started getting extra media attention when she married football star David Beckham in 1999. But Emma is shocked by the media being always on Victoria’s trail, reports contactmusic.com.

She said: “I was in a restaurant with Victoria and people were looking at her, trying to get her attention. But to me, she’s just Victoria, my friend. She’s an amazing mother and she’s very funny. She was texting me this morning and I was in hysterics - that’s the part I see of her.”

June
11 years ago
June 1997 Spiceworld The Movie begins filming, with the second album (Spiceworld) being recorded on location."My favourite scene in the film is the one we shot in the Albert Hall. It was performing and that's what we like doing best. We did our new single, Spice Up Your Life, which is really good, and we were all done up and had mics on like Madonna. All the fans were there, which gave us a taster of what our concerts are going to be like. We all loved it." – Mel C
