Mel C has blamed the Spice Girls for ruining her solo career.
The singer, better known as Sporty Spice, insists she has no intention of reforming with her old bandmates and wishes the reunion rumours would "go away".
She told Britain's Guardian newspaper: "Every time a story comes up I have to deny it. There are no plans for a Spice Girls tour that I am aware of. I saw Emma and Geri a few weeks ago and of course we talk about the rumours and things that are going on, but it's the last thing on everybody's mind at the moment, so it's frustrating for me. The Spice Girls was a phenomenon and it's part of British pop history and I'm very, very proud to be part of that. But sometimes I just think, 'Oh please go away, you're stealing my thunder.'"
Mel also admits she hasn't been in contact with one-time bandmate Mel B for two years.
She added: "I haven't spoken to Mel for a couple of years. There's no rift or anything, it's just circumstances. Sometimes you just lose touch, but honestly there's no reason for it."
