Spice Girls 'Sad' And 'Miffed' About Queen's Diamond Jubilee Concert Snub

They claimed they were 'too busy' to perform for the Queen, but it sounds like the Spice Girls - or three fifths of them at least - are regretting blowing out HRH.

The girl group were asked to take part in the Queen's Diamond Jubilee concert last year but claimed they just couldn't squeeze her into their busy schedules - despite certain members of the group being up for it.

Meanwhile, Emma Bunton retweeted several messages from fans who commented on their absence, while Mel C took to Twitter to say: "Bit miffed I'm not down at Buckingham Palace."

Still, Victoria Beckham still managed to put in an appearance - she took part in a special video message with hubby David to congratulate the Queen on her 60 year reign.

Clearly some people are not reading the article... the Spice Girls weren't snubbed... they were INVITED to perform but one (possibly two) members wouldn't agree to it. Hence the other three bitching about it.

Thank goodness the Spice Girls were busy why bring them back, there was enough has beens on the stage. I would rather have seen Tommy Steele than Cliff (dtrying to be Elivs) Richards I a sure they could have got some decent artists than the moggy lot that performed.

If the artists had been properly selected selected, I think we'd have seen the likes of Rod Stewart and Adele rather than disasters such as Will.i.am and Cheryl Cole.

So were 60 million others. We all contribute to British society. Farnkly millions of us are realy put off by all the Celebrity. Some girl who you hardly know owns a mansion like Buckingham palace yet few have heard of her. They feel they must have all the best seats. Why is this society giving these people such free publicity? Many have the morals of an alley kat and even worse as the promote a drugs type life. Amy Winehouse comes to mind. It realy is about time some wholesiomness is returned to our society.

The Spice Girls are no longer together as a group, so why should they have been asked to appear? One last thing, the Queen is HM not HRH :0)

How many more stories can be squeezed out of this concert? Are they going to ask everybody who wasn't there how upset they are or who they think they could have replaced? Who cares? It was very average, it's finished and it doesn't matter.

The big question is. Is Mr Barlow after a Knighthood ? AND Over recent years why have so many celebs being Knighted?

There are people in my town who work relentlessly for charity but do not get Knighted WHY?

The show wasn't too bad but those that were not has-beens were never-was, there must have been some performers somewhere that would have made a really good show, given the opportunity and not chosen because they were long time friends.

Posh admitted something we all knew about why she could not team up with the other has beens for the jubillee. She said she was to busy and said she was never the best voice or mover and had no plans to go back and put herself under more pressure. At last. common sense.

What is it with these celebrities .....thinking THEY should have been part of the Celebrations ..... as previously said .....only a handful could be invited ........ it's not that they were snubbed .....so stop being so petty and be pleased that the Celebrations went well and the Queen enjoyed her special weekend ......
