The Brit Awards were being handed out again. This time the Spice Girls had star billing. A year ago, they'd been unknowns, gawping wide-eyed at the music legends. Now they were being billed as the hottest band in the world.
The Spice Girls had been nominated for 5 awards at the Brits. They would also open the show with a huge production version of "Who Do You Think You Are?"
As the big monet drew closer, they gatherd in there dressing room and closed the door. There was a chaos outside with televison crews, photographers and technicians falling over on another in the narrow corridors.
"Are you Nervous, Lita?" Serena asked, then started giggling.
"No, im not nervous. Im very excited? Are you excited? I can't believe this is happening." Lita B replied.
"okay, calm down. Hehe" Serena said, still laughing.
"What about you, Raye, are you nervous?" Lita C asked her
"No, I was really nervous before we got here, but im better now." Raye replied.
"It doesen't matter if we win an award," Mina told them. "I've got one for us anyway."
She gave them each a candle, and read on on of her poems.
"This is going to be one of the greatest night of our lives. Let's just enjoy it." Said Mina.
A production girl with a microphone in front of her mouth and a clipboards knocked on the door. "Okay, we're ready for you now."
They followed her out and down several corridors until they reached a big ramp. Put in position on top of a big catwalk, they had there backs to the arena and a huge screen in front of them. A lead-up trailer was being shown to the crowd.
There were five thousand people in the auditorium and thrity million people watching on TV worldwide.
They all glaced out the corners of there eyes to each other. The look said it all: "Oh, my God!"
Ben Elton welcomed the audience to the 1997 Brit Awards.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Margaret Thatcher as due to appear with the Spice Girls, but unfortunately her belly button ring has gone septic. Please put your hands together and welcome: Ginger, Sporty, Scary, Baby, and Posh...The Spice Girls!"
Cannons suddenly exploded and the lights came up. The first bars of "Wannabe" reverberated through Earls Court. They turned and strutted down the ramp. The music flowed into "Who Do You Think You Are."
The crowd roared.
Backstage they quickly changed so that they could get to there table for the award presentations. Serena wore a long gold shimmering dress, with no straps. Mina wore a "Jessica Rabbit" type dress. Raye wore a short black dress, with lace wing things at the bottom. Lita C wore a long brown dress, with black strips curving from the bottom to the middle. And Lita B wore a colorful pant and coat unsomble.
As "Wannabe" was announced as the Best Single they all gave a scream of delight and hugged.
Later, "Say You'll Be There" won Best Video.
