After Geri Halliwell's departure, the Spice Girls had a hiatus in 1999.[1] The other members started their solo careers in music, but Bunton devoted to other projects and signed with VH1 to present her own show, becoming a VJ.[2] The show was announced in 12 August and aired originally in October 8, with five weekly episodes.[3] A premiere party was held on 28 September.[4] The programme follows a similar format to that of 120 Minutes, which aired on MTV.[5] Bunton introduced her favorite music videos and read fans' e-mail.[4] With 60 minutes, the show was aired on Fridays 6 pm.[6] After the original screening VH1 wanted to sign a long-term programme with Bunton, but she declined, focusing on her group's new album.[2]
