thumbnail Olympics Closing Ceremonies Fab-Off: Spice Girls Vs. Supermodels

The Closing Ceremonies were a mish-mish of every famous Brit who could so much as keep a beat on a trash can lid or walk to and fro on cue. Obviously the most important people summoned for the cause were the Spice Girls and the supermodels. Which was more fab?

Spice Girls!!!

Spice Girls!!!

Let's not beat around the Union Jack-shaped topiary, everyone still wants to talk about the Spice Girls and I am no exception.

I thought their performance was pitch-perfect. Even if they didn't really sing, the performance wasn't nearly long enough, and it was sort of slap-dash, it happened and it was like 1995 all over again. Let's assess the fashions, one Spice at a time.

Scary Spice (Mel B)

GREAT catsuit. Perfect for her (since it was kind of scary), the event (since how do you stand out in a sea of lights that don't stop flashing the rainbow?), and 2012 (since no modern 37-year-old diva would dare perform in something other than a skintight sparkle suit).

You go, Mel B. You've done J. Lo proud!

Ginger Spice (Geri Halliwell)

I love that her ass had a Union Jack flapping off the back. She had to pay homage to this pivotal moment in British cultural history in some way, and that was just enough to bring us back there but not SO much that it overpowered the whole performance.
