Isn't summer absolutely fabulous. Even in Britain it makes me feel a bit more alive, though I'm in mad lust for a beach. If I wasn't trying to revive my career, I'm certain that I'd be lying in the sand somewhere, sipping a pina colada, wearing something next to nothing and working on my tan by day, pretending to be a Bond Girl again, per my latest video, by night. Or possibly Jennifer Garner's character in Alias, sitting next to some wildly attractive stranger, seducing him with dark hair and an accent, playing a bit of a spy game just for fun.
I've really such a desire to return to Brazil at the moment where I shot the video for "Free Me." The people were so genuinely alive there, so free. It's lovely to kick back and be yourself especially on holiday, above fantasy notwithstanding. I'd love for some more time with my girlfriends. Perhaps I should make my beach fantasy a bit of a reality when I can.
I suppose I should update this with a bit of official but also bad news as well. It appears that we, the Spice Girls, will NOT be performing at Live Aid. The official bit is that we're not serious and political enough for the event, though the toss about town is that we're out because we aren't popular enough anymore. I'm honestly quite disappointed over this bit of news. I'm not going to waste my time or energy being offended, but I might be if I didn't respect the premise of the event so much. It's about helping all of the people in need though, not about us. I really only wish that we would have the chance to be a part of it.
This was a bit cathartic, writing this. I feel inspired to visit a bit more.
