The Spice Girls slammed by Louis Walsh

Reunited pop outfit The Spice Girls have been slammed by Westlife manager Louis Walsh.

In his tirade Walsh, the manager of Westlife also criticised Robbie Williams and Will Young.

He said: “The Spice Girls are only reuniting because they have nothing else to do. One’s just the wife of a soccer star and the others are not on the radar. They’re well past their sell-by date.”

Speaking about Williams and Young, he told Yahoo News: “It’s great about Take That getting back together and they didn’t need Robbie. He’s overrated and had lost his sense of reality.

“He should be grateful that he has been so successful with not a lot of talent. Will(Young) is too pretentious. I’m not keen on him.”
