Mel B has announced that the Spice Girls will be back on tour soon.
The pop star, 48, was part of the world’s best-selling girl group alongside Geri Halliwell, Emma Bunton, Melanie C and birthday girl Victoria Beckham in the late 1990s.
On Saturday, she and her former bandmates attended Victoria’s 50th birthday party in London and got up to perform their 1998 song Stop.
Just hours later, Scary Spice took to Instagram to tease that the Wannabe legends will be back on the road soon.
She shared the video of the original post and wrote: ‘About last night #tourdatescomingsoon.’
Mel B has teased another Spice Girls reunion, just hours after performing with her former bandmates.
Mel B (right) rose to fame in the 1990s as Scary Spice alongside (LR) Emma Bunton (Baby Spice), Melanie C (Sporty Spice), Victoria Beckham (Posh Spice) and Geri Halliwell (Ginger Spice).
Mel B has teased that the Spice Girls will be back on tour soon after their impromptu performance at Victoria Beckham’s 50th birthday party.
The Spice Girls were initially formed through an open audition in London in 1994 and were initially known as Touch.
But in 1996, there were a couple of line-up changes and they changed their name to the Spice Girls before releasing their hit debut single Wannabe in July of that year.
The band released two record-breaking albums titled Spice and Spiceworld before Geri’s surprise departure in 1998 and released one more album before disappearing in 2000.
The Too Much singers reunited in 2007 for a world tour and then performed a medley of their greatest hits at the closing ceremony of the London Olympics in 2012.
They last performed in 2019 for a series of stadium shows, but Victoria opted out and Saturday marked the first time they were seen together as a quintet since the opening of their short-lived jukebox musical Viva Forever, more than a decade ago.
But I Want You Back hitmaker Mel has spoken in recent months about a possible reunion and has claimed on several occasions that one will happen.
During an interview on The Kyle and Jackie O Show, host Kyle Sandilands, 52, revealed that he will be in the US for the iHeartRadio music festival in September and was looking forward to catching up with the singer.
Mel coyly joked: “If I’m not touring with the Spice Girls, of course I will.”
The Spice Girls achieved huge success in the late 1990s with two chart-topping albums and a film (pictured at the BRIT Awards in February 1997).
The Spice Girls were initially formed through an open audition in London in 1994 and were initially known as Touch (pictured in the archive photo from the 2001 Raw Spice documentary).
Victoria last performed with the band in 2012 at the closing ceremony of the London Olympics, where they performed Wannabe and Spice Up Your Life.
Just before that, Mel made a guest appearance on Good Morning Britain, where she claimed her bandmates were “always telling her off.”
She said: “I’m always the one saying the Spice Girls are getting together and they always tell me off, but we’re doing something.” I just can’t say…’
And days later, during an appearance on This Morning Mel revealed that she had even been kicked out of the Spice Girls WhatsApp group despite her determination to get the band back together in time for their 30th anniversary.
She said: ‘You know, I get really emotional when it comes to the Spice Girls, because it’s 30 years. And you know, we have a lot to celebrate about the fact that we’re still healthy and living life and still talking.’
