Were The Spice Girls the biggest
all girl pop band in the UK?
Myth
Sporty, Scary, Posh and Ginger were the Spice Girls. Lots of number ones, a movie and millions made for all those who took part. Quite clearly they were the biggest group of the late 90's and obviously the most successful girl band in the world so far.
Reality
Nope. You might be shocked to find out that 80's group Banarama were considerably more successful with 26 U.K. chart smashes versus the Spice Girl's 10. Plus they sold more records over a longer period.
What's more, am I the only one to notice that 'Ginger' is the only 'Spice' actually in the Spice Girls.
