Spice us up Bono
EXCLUSIVE: ROCKER'S SONG FOR GIRLS
01/10/2007
He's no stranger to a good deed or two and now Bono has accepted one of his toughest missions yet - a collaboration with the Spice Girls.
We can exclusively reveal that the Ir
ish rocker - best known for his work with U2, Third World debt and Aids victims - has written a brand new song for the reuniting popsters.
The tune is set to be included in the Spice Girls' forthcoming greatest hits album and Baby, Ginger, Posh, Scary and Sporty will perform it on their world tour.
We've been told that record label bosses are getting increasingly jittery about how well the album will perform when it hits the shops.

It could be out as early as November 5 - but that could still change depending on the competition out there.
So they asked Bono, 47, to see if he could help out - and were delighted when he said yes. Posh is already close to the rocker, whose Red campaign raises money to help victims of Aids. Hubby David Beckham has also helped out when he appeared in a TV advert for the Motorola's Red Razr mobile phone.
Our impeccable music insider tells us: "It might seem unusual with the Spice Girls' pop roots and the much more rockier work of Bono, but it works.
"There's been a bit of unease as to how the album will perform and if there's still a solid Spice Girls' fanbase out there.
"However Bono's involvement has lifted the whole camp and he's delighted to have been asked and add his experience."
The name of the song is at the moment a closely-guarded secret but our insider adds: "Bono is a brilliant musician and is up for the challenge and can pull off any sort of musical style. Expect the unexpected."
Maybe it will be an angry rant railing against the injustice of global poverty - we'll just have to wait and see.
The band - on £10million apiece - are to play one UK date in London on their 15-concert world tour.
Wonder if a certain Irish superstar will jump on stage and join them...

spice girls????
So does Bono get to be an honorary Spice Girl??
??
I have to admit - they were pretty good.
Oh my god! Am I the only one that thinks this could be brilliant? I'm cracking up over it, and facepalming a little bit, but you know what? If it actually happens, I'll probably love it.
