 It’s Not Happening - Mel B Shuts Down Spice Girls Reunion Rumours Mel B has poured cold water on hopes of a Spice Girls reunion, revealing that plans for a 30th anniversary comeback are not on the table and admitting she may never share the stage with her former bandmates again. The singer, who rose to global fame in 1996 alongside Mel C, Emma Bunton, Victoria Beckham, and Geri Horner, made the revelation in a candid new interview that is likely to disappoint longtime fans of the iconic girl group. “I can tell you it is not happening,” Mel B said, speaking directly about the reunion rumours. “If it does, it’ll be a shock to me.” Her comments appear to put an end, at least for now, to growing speculation that the group would mark three decades since their debut with a major comeback.

 Experts Say Iran’s Claimed Downed F-35 May Actually Be an F-15E From Britain Iranian media has posted images of what it claims is a downed American F-35 fighter jet over central Iran. The Iranian military says it forced the aircraft to crash, marking what it calls a second hit. However, aviation experts examining the photos suggest the wreckage may actually belong to an F-15E Strike Eagle. They point to markings on the plane, including a US Air Force in Europe badge and a red tail flash of the 494th Fighter Squadron, based at RAF Lakenheath in Suffolk, UK. The F-15E, unlike the single-seater F-35, carries two crew members. Experts note that the aircraft matches the type involved in an earlier incident when Kuwait’s air force accidentally shot down three planes at the start of the conflict.

 She was failed by the courts and left to die while her small children watched. A Wisconsin woman who was denied a restraining order in February, was just k*lled by her estranged husband.  This heartbreaking story met its tragic end on Wednesday, April 1st, when officers with the Kenosha Police Department arrived at the home Makayla Plaza, to perform a welfare check. When officers knocked on the door of the home at approximately 6:20 a.m., Marckus Plaza answered the door. Marckus is Makayla's estranged husband. However, upon seeing an officer at the door, Marckus quickly slammed the door shut. This prompted officers to walk around the back of the home, where an officer looked through a basement window and saw Marckus trying to drag Makayla's lifeless body, possibly in an attempt to "hide" her.  Officers then began to force their way into the home, but as they gained entry into the home, Marckus was able to escape. Once inside of the home, officers found Makayla deceas...
