Won’t someone please think of the children?
By Spirit Fingers
Everyone who’s managed to claw their way back from relative oblivion will tell you what the essential ingredients of any comeback video are - glamour gowns, low lighting and sexy underwear. The Spice Girls are no different in this respect. Except in their case, prudish censors have decided that the scowling blonde-bobbed bondage mistress holds little appeal for the younger viewers, even if she is promoting the Children in Need appeal:
A Spice Girls comeback video includes a scene so raunchy it got cut for the pre-9pm timeslot on BBC television.
UK tabloid Daily Mirror says the video to the official Children in Need song features mother-of-three Victoria Beckham straddling a chair in thigh high leather boots — and not much else.
The 33-year-old also appears in just a black bra and knickers at one stage and in a satin “cage” basque in another.
You will see from the picture above that it is not as controversial as so breathlessly described. Her legs are mostly covered, her private parts are safely out of sight and the “cage” basque must be commended for minimising her rib detail. By Hollywood’s standards, this is plenty decent! And if anything, it isn’t Victoria or her fellow Spices who we need to watch out for. I have it on good authority that David is actually the one who can’t stop exposing himself in the name of charity.

So we don’t need to guess what it is those children need, eh?
