Baby Spice II?
No, Emma Bunton doesn't have a twin, but the rumour is that there's another little Spice baby on the way.
No one knows which Spice Girl is expecting (or if any of them are) but rumours list each Spice but Baby as possible mothers-to-be, dotmusic reports.
In past interviews, Posh Spice (Victoria) and her husband David Beckham have both said they'd like to have a large family. But since Posh is busy recording her debut solo album, she's not a very likely candidate.
Meanwhile, Mel B (Scary) is enjoying a romance with U.K. actor Max Beesley.
In more Spice news, Victoria Beckham just sold her autobiography to Penguin Books, Reuters reports.
There's speculation that the publishing company paid over a million dollars for rights to the Spice Girl's book.
Sophie Brewer of Penguin Books would say only that the rights were purchased "for an undisclosed substantial sum".
Tom Weldon of Penguin, who commissioned Victoria's memoirs, expects the 100,000-word autobiography to be a guaranteed hit.
"It is a real extraordinary story to read -- the story of the girl next door who wanted to be famous and made it, but when she got there it was a nightmare," Weldon told Reuters. "Fame has been a real test of character, but she's very gutsy and she can cope. A large amount of that has to do with her relationship with (footballer husband) David Beckham. It is an incredible love story."
He went on to say that Posh's book is certain to out-perform Geri Halliwell's autobiography,"If Only", which sold over 200,000 copies.
The book will include 60 photos from Victoria's own collection and will be based on diary entries she's kept over the years.
The book is also expected to challenge some points made in biographer Andrew Morton's just-released, unofficial biography "Posh And Becks".
Morton, who has written biographies on Princess Diana and Monica Lewinsky, implied that the celebrity couple staged a fan's attempt to grab their son in an attempt to gain publicity.
"I've read some of the early chapters and she wants to give a full and frank version of her life to put right some of the wrong things said about her," Weldon said.
