Spice Girls star Melanie C has confessed ‘next year is a big year us’ as she opened up on the potential of a reunion for the iconic group group’s 30th anniversary of Wannabe’s release
Melanie C has admitted some are taking more convincing than others as the world gets excited about a Spice Girls reunion tour. Sporty Spice, 51, seemingly couldn’t hide her excitement at the thoughts of a 30 year anniversary tour, but admitted not everyone is feeling the same buzz.
It was claimed earlier this week that the iconic girl group were in talks to hit the road to mark 30 years since the release of Wannabe. And now Melanie C has revealed certain members are needing more “convincing” for the feat.
It’s thought Victoria is “90 per cent” sure to miss out yet again – just like she did on the group’s sell-out tour in 2019. However, that doesn’t appear to be going to stop Melanie and the other members.
Speaking on the No Filter with Kate Langbroek podcast, Sporty said: “Next year is a big year for us and we have to acknowledge it in some way.
“So we are talking about what that’s going to look like and for me, Melanie, I know for sure, and Emma [Bunton], we’d be back on stage. But sometimes other people need a little bit more convincing.”
She revealed the prospect of the full ensemble reuniting would be the “best thing ever, ever, ever”. And she also said “sometimes it feels like a duty to the world”.
“When we did the shows in 2019, it brought so much joy to so many people. Not everybody likes the Spice Girls but loads of people do.
“We’re living in this weird world right now. There’s so much negativity and mad s**t going on. Let’s all spice up our lives.”
And she joked that any reunion confirmation or secrets won’t be ran by Melanie B, claiming “she can’t keep her mouth shut”.
“So don’t listen to Mel B because she doesn’t know, because we’re not telling her,” she playfully jibed.
Earlier in the week, it was claimed Band guru Simon Fuller was ready to meet with Geri to secure a deal for the reunuin. Geri and Simon are reportedly be back in touch and meeting in Miami, while Victoria has reportedly told pals she isn’t considering going back to her music roots.
“There have been rumours swirling for months, but Geri has always been too busy and had other things on, preventing her from saying Yes,” a source claimed to the Sun. “Nothing is yet confirmed but Geri and Simon are back in touch with a myriad of exciting ideas.”
However, they added: “Unfortunately Victoria has pretty much ruled herself out, but there is still a world in which she could do some sort of avatar appearance or a special one-off thing.”
