About Sharon Shaffer
Expertise
I can answer just about anything, if not I will try to research and ask around to get the answer

Experience
As a young girl in the 6th grade, I had fallen victim of the Spice Girls after I heard other people talking about them. Once I bought the CD, I listened to Wannabe over and over and over again. But later I realized that there were other tracks on the CD and listened to them as well. I started buying magazines and learning about them and collecting merchandise. It all turned into a obsession and has now become a collection of which I am very proud of. I taught myself their dances that they used when they performed.

Answer
In the US, the Spice Girls hit it huge when I was in the 7th grade.  There were girls walking around school dressed up as each Spice Girl, and there would be people singing Wannabe but after they released SpiceWorld, everyone looked at them as a joke.  My personal views are that they have broken so many boundries b/c they were a girl band and I think people liked them b/c you had different spices, kinda like different flavors to choose from.  They were one of the most successful groups of all time and hopefully we'll be getting a greatest hits soon!  I don't know who was the most successful.  They've all had their flops and they've all had their success, so it's quite hard to pick which one.  I would say that Melanie B was the biggest flop while Melanie C or Geri were the most successful after the Spice Girls.  I hope that answers all of your questions and feel free to ask more!
