I thought Max had a crush on Mohammed Ali’s daughter. I saw a sparkle in his eyes when he looked at her, especially in the beginning, but she had a fiance.

Max is so sexy and passionate. He’s my favorite male dancer on the show. Mel’s husband better watch out if he’s single. He’s hard to resist!

Correction: Five seasons and yeah Posh Spice would have certainly been more entertaining.

Mel is so lucky! Her husband is a dangerous pyscho so Maks better be careful.

This is actually the first season I may have to tune into. Mel B, Jane Seymour, Jennie Garth, Cameron Mathison… I will at least watch one episode, methinks.

All the spice girls are pathetic. What next backstreet boys! Posh would be just as useless as Mel B. Posh would be the plastic puppet.

I’m sorry, but any woman who would let Eddie Murphy “hit it” can’t be too bright. Clorox anyone?

She looks hot but she has got to be extremely stupid, as her taste in men shows.

Ever since Eddie Murphy dissed this girl, she has been carrying herself better. Before she looked like a tramp. It probably hurt her feelings and her ride, so she stepped it up a lot.

She might be good. Emma Bunton (Baby spice) was on strictly come dancing (the show in England) and was really good!
