Spice Girls fans were overjoyed by a surprise rendition of one of the band’s hit tunes by two of the members, seven years on from the last time they sang it on stage
Spice Girls fans were on cloud nine after some of the iconic girl band sang one of their hit tunes together for the first time in years. Melanie C and Mel B reunited and rolled back the years during a surprise set in Leeds.
Scary Spice joined her pal on stage much to the delight of the adoring crowd and the pair belted out one of their most popular songs. The crowd happily sang along to Spice Up Your Life as they were left stunned by what they were witnessing.
One user online gasped: “What is happening?!?” as they uploaded the special moment. Sporty Spice looked very much in character as she wore tracksuit bottoms and a colourful crop top.

Mel B also opted for a throwback look with her baggy jeans and sleeved crop top. The pair’s 90s appearance was well received and fans appeared to be loving every moment.
As she welcomed her former band mate to the stage, Mel C told the crowd: ““I have to stop because this is such a special moment.” Mel B then interrupted: “Don’t make me cry.”
“We haven’t done this since 2019 girlfriend,” Mel C went on as she referred to their Spice World – 2019 Tour. At the time, the pair were joined by Emma Bunton and Geri Halliwell-Horner. Victoria Beckham continues to steer clear of any public performance with the band.
After the performance, Mel B took to social media to praise the moment. Sharing a snap of the duo to Instagram, Scary Spice also shared the video of the pair in action. She gushed: “Went to support my northern sister on the launch of her AMAZIN album SWEAT…. and she only ended up bloody gettin me on stage.
“LUV YOUUU and sooo proud of you @melaniecmusic !!! everyone go out stream order buy her album coz its AMAZIN and so is she!!!!”
And Mel C echoed the sentiment with a clip of the tune. She wrote: “”Good to be back with my Spice sister @officialmelb in Leeds, thank you for sharing the stage with me.”
Fans were quick to brand them as “queens” for the reunion. There had been talk the iconic group would make a comeback as a full group, but fans were been left disappointed as it failed to materialise.
But it appears all is not lost just yet. Last week Mel C dropped the biggest hint yet that a long-awaited reunion could finally happen as the group approaches the 30th anniversary of Wannabe this July.
She recently said: “Absolutely, it would be a crime not to,” as excitement builds among fans hoping to see all five women reunite. “We are constantly discussing what we would like to do.”
In the interview with the Australian YouTube channel 7You, she went on: “I think the problem that we have and the reason why we often don’t get together and do things is that it’s so precious to us. We don’t want to do the wrong thing.
“It’s hard to get five people to agree, and when we do agree, it’s very magical and very special, so I keep my fingers crossed that we’ll be able to do something.”
