Teeny boppers all over the nation are up in arms after the recent announcement that the Spice Girls have scrapped plans to tour Australia this year.

The girl group announced over the weekend that they would not be including Australia on their world reunion tour as planned, due to "family and personal commitments".

The Spice Girls - made up of Emma Bunton, Geri Halliwell, Melanie Brown, Melanie Chisholm and Victoria Beckham - began their comeback world tour in December last year.

While not confirmed, a Sydney show was originally penciled in for January, but kept being put off as the group extended US and UK shows.

Following news of the cancellation, angry fans have taken to the internet to express their disappointment, bombarding the group's unofficial website SpiceGirls.co.uk with negative responses.

"I am absolutely disgusted in them," a fan named Charm said.

"Most of us have been waiting years for this and they have just ruined it all for us.

"As far as I am concerned, they have just lost another fan. So much for girl power."

Some branded the group liars.

"They have known all along when their kids go to school or whatever," Stace88 said.

"It's a crappy excuse, really it's all just about money ... they've made enough now so who cares about anywhere else right?"

Fans said they were upset that promoters kept promising concert dates.

"How dare they get our hopes up by sending emails asking us how many tickets we wanted," Ezzy B said.

Fans also headed to the group's MySpace page, personal websites and news sites.

On the social networking site Facebook, two groups have started recruiting members, Spice Girls Suck for cancelling tour to Australia and Spice Girls Dogged Australia.

The website SpiceNews.com, which has been running since 1998, announced it was closing down.

"I can't support people who I don't respect, and I don't respect people who plainly screw over and lie to their fans, that being the Spice Girls," the site's administrator said.

While the group also blamed the demand for tickets in the US and the UK, there is some speculation of infighting within the band.

The girl band reunited in a blaze of publicity in June last year with their greatest hits album going straight to number one in Australia.
