KEY POINTS:
Surly Spice Melanie Chisholm has threatened to walk out of girl group the Spice Girls.
The moody singer - who now refers to herself as "Reluctant Spice" because of her hesitance to agree to the reunion - has vowed to quit the group if any of the girls start misbehaving during their forthcoming tour.
She says: "If it goes into a diva drama, I'm out of the circus."
The Spice Girls were once the Britpop queens who ruled the world with their slick dance routines, sex appeal and catchy tunes.
But it all went South in 1998 when Ginger left the fold, and the remaining girls sorrowfully made their way down the path of musical divorce after a bout of internecine angst.
And now they're reformed.
But the burning question on everyone's lips is: will they be able to stand each other's company during what promises to be a grueling tour schedule?
If Mel C's current state of mind is anything to go by, the girls merely have to fart in her general direction and she'll be throwing her toys out of the pram and bailing - pearls swinging, naturally.
Watch this space...
The girls kick off their world tour on December 2 in Vancouver, Canada.

Love rat Law
Jude Law has thanked British tabloid the News of The World for exposing him as a love rat.
The slimeball actor thinks the bad press he received made him realise his mistakes and change his ways.
Naughty Jude was caught with his pants down and indulging in a spot of group sex while married to designer Sadie Frost, and more recently exposed by the newspaper for cheating on Sienna Miller with his children's nanny.
Law also says that he's "happy" the newspaper exposed his misbehaviour in such a public and humiliating way.
Law said: "I'm not happy I hurt people, but I'm kind of happy it was on such a public level.
"In a way it was like washing your laundry in public and, yep, there you go, you've seen my underwear, you've seen all my rubbish, you've seen me putting out the trash.
"And now I feel like there's nothing left, you've seen it all and I can get on.
"In a weird way, that's kind of wonderful. I was an idiot. I behaved badly. I made mistakes. Who hasn't?
Law insists he's now learnt his lesson.
"It all came out and I took it on the chin. I also like to think of that because of the scale on which I had to admit to them, I learnt my lesson."
Once a cheater, always a cheater...
False positive
TMZ is reporting that Britney has failed a recent drug test, but their source says she still passed. It was apparently a false reading.
As I predicted last week, K-Fed's lawyer, Mark Vincent Kaplan, will be using the video of Brit running a red light during a special hearing on Wednesday.
Kaplan is on a mission to have Britney banned from driving around with her kids in the car.
But all is not lost for Britney - she still has her fans.
A support group called Team Britney descended on the Hollywood Walk of Fame over the weekend to show their support for Unfitney, and to demand that the popwreck gets custody of her children.
Bless them.
Wardrobe malfunction
Angelina may have been all teeth and porcelain smiles at the London premiere of Beowulf, but it was all a ploy to hide a hideous truth - her outfit was falling apart.
That too, and a rather unseemly piece of chewing gum stuck itself to the heel of her Christian Louboutin stilettos.
Not a good look.
Still, when you've got Bradley Pitts resting his had on your buttocks, who cares!
