McClure: 'Spice Girls are grandmas in PVC'

Reverend and the Makers singer John McClure has made a scathing attack on the reunited Spice Girls.

The frontman claims that the girl group have had a negative effect on the music industry and that they look an embarrassment on stage.

He told the Daily Star: "The Spice Girls are in it for the money.

"They’re totally devoid of talent and everyone knows why they’re back. All these reunions of old codgers like them is f**king rubbish.

"The Spice Girls look like d**kheads, walking around in PVC like grandmas."

McClure also took a swipe at Simon Cowell, comparing him to the devil and blaming him for the troubles of struggling musicians.

He added: "It’s not fair on the musicians fighting a losing battle trying to get heard. The music industry is full of nepotism and I’d like to see the fat cats on their knees.

"People like Simon Cowell are the Devil."
