After months of rumours and speculation, the Spice Girls have finally confirmed a celebration of their 20th anniversary.
Today (8 July) marks two whole decades since the iconic girl group released their debut single ‘Wannabe’, and the band have teased fans that they will be reuniting to celebrate in some way.
However, those hoping claims Victoria Beckham and Mel C won’t be involved in the festivities would turn out to be false, are set for disappointment, as it looks like it is only Emma Bunton, Geri Horner and Mel B getting back together.
The trio have released a budget special video - seemingly recorded on their smart phones - teasing their comeback.
Mel B begins be saying: “We’ve been thinking, we have the best friends in the whole entire world...”
Geri continues: “You’ve stood by us for 20 years, and we want to say a big thank you...”
Emma then goes on to say: “We’ve had our ups and downs, but you’ve always been there.”
Mel then confirms the exciting news by adding: “And we want to celebrate, and when we do... you’re all invited!”
A message on screen then teases the plans, saying: “We hope to tell you all soon what you want, what you really, really want.”
While details about their celebration are yet to be confirmed, reports have suggested they will play Hyde Park’s British Summertime Festival next year.
It seems the revamped line-up have a new name too, going under the moniker of Spice Girls GEM (Geri, Emma, Mel, duh!), although we have to admit, that is going to take some serious getting used to.
However, Sporty Spice (aka Mel C) teased yesterday that she still could be involved in some way, telling The Sun: “I am keeping tight-lipped. There are lots of discussions going on.
Now, how do we twist Victoria’s arm too...?
