R & B star Ne-Yo has revealed why he turned down a request from the Spice Girls to write their comeback single last year — he was busy working with Rihanna.
The ‘So Sick’ hitmaker — real name Shaffer Chimere Smith — has worked with the likes of Beyonce and Leona Lewis — but couldn’t fit working with the Spice Girls into his busy schedule.
He said: “Spice Girls asked me to write some songs but I couldn’t find time.
“They wanted something to put on their comeback album but I never got round to getting it done. I was recording songs for Rihanna at the time.”
The 25-year-old even confessed to being a fan of the hit girl group, revealing Scary Spice Mel B is his favorite.
