Top 10 Reasons The Olympics Needs The Spice Girls - The Frisky

Image
Anyone who is anyone that came of age during the 1990's certainly has fond memories of their musical love affair with the Spice Girls. Thanks to the Spice Girls I could finally be an average height (while walking around in platform sneakers/flip flops/stripper shoes) and conveniently had some leftover Union Jacks when it came time for 2011's Royal Wedding. If the Spice Girls reunited (again) for the 2012 London Olympics I could die happy and go to spandex heaven. Top 10 Reasons The Olympics Needs The Spice Girls - The Frisky "There are five rings in the Olympic logo. There are five Spice Girls. This was totally meant to be."

Gymnastics Olympic Trials to be held in San Jose

Gymnastics Olympic Trials to be held in San Jose What you may or may not know about Ode to Olympic Spandex is that we are based in San Francisco. What you also may or may not realize is that gymnastics is the holy spandex grail of the summer Olympics. We will DEFINITELY be hitting this event up (hopefully in person rather than virtually) and finding a way to ask those most important questions to the potential future Olympic athletes: Who are you wearing, and how did you choose this leotard/feast of spandex glory for today's event? Any connections to press passes appreciated- leave a comment below.

In case you weren't excited enough...
