28JUNE2007, THE SPICE GIRLS all lined-up together as a five-piece for the first time in nine years today as they announced their comeback plans.
The group will play an 11-date world tour across six continents - starting in Los Angeles on December 7 - to 'say Goodbye' to fans.
And even footballing superstar DAVID BECKHAM - VICTORIA's hubby - will join the tour.
But the girls dismissed rumours they would be performing at this weekend's Concert For Diana - because EMMA BUNTON is due to give birth at any minute.
Not since the departure of GERI HALLIWELL in May 1998 have all the girls been pictured together.
Geri summed it up by saying: "Imagine you got divorced and you've got back together with your ex-husband."
Joking about how Geri left the band, Victoria said: "We've forgiven her."
The girls showed off their new grown-up look as they met to reveal details of their multi-million pound reunion tour.
At the press conference at London's O2 Arena, hosted by actor RICHARD E. GRANT, they said they will release a greatest hits album at Christmas.
And Victoria admitted David would tour with the group during a break from playing for LA Galaxy.
She said: "He's going to be on tour with the kids and all of our families. He's so excited about us getting back together."My main reason for doing this is for my kids - so they can see what mummy used to do.
"I'm going to be the cool one in the family for once!''
Geri put straight reports they would be launching their comeback at Wembley on Sunday.
Although PRINCES WILLIAM and HARRY did ask the band to take part in the concert for their late mum, it's not possible because of Emma.
Geri said: "The thing is we have a very heavily pregnant lady here so we can't do it. Her waters could break at any minute."
And Mel C added: "We would have loved to be there this weekend. It's just unfortunate timing."
The girls also spoke about their world tour later this year.
They promised to sing all their hits on the tour, which takes in LA, Las Vegas, New York, London, Germany, Spain, China, Australia, South Africa and Argentina.
They are also filming a tell-all documentary to accompany their comeback.
Geri said: "It's going to be the most honest story that you've ever heard. You get to see the dark side of the Spice Girls, the gritty side, the tears."
But the girls said it wasn't a case of Viva Forever for the band - the comeback was strictly a 'one-off'.
"This is going to be a one-night stand," said Geri.

Wow... ginger spice got OLD! @_@ everyone else aged well... but you can't really tell with posh, she doesnt look real... actually, when did she ever look real?

Hmm I think they look better now than they did back in 1997.
I really like that blonde girl's short hair in the second pic!

Maybe because it was the fashion that changed.
They still look just as sassy as before!

They still look great as ever! It amuses me though is that Geri still wears clothes that really standout from the others.

If they decide to release a CD again, I'll so buy it! Too bad the closest concert to where I live is in LA...

AH SPICE GIRLS COMEBACK!
i use to love them sooo muchhh
that was before i knew what kpop was though
i cant believe emma is going to have a baby...
omg they have a tour in LOS ANGELES next month?
i wonder if its too late to but tickets..
but then again none of my friends here like spicegirls

ahh they look much more beautiful now! I'm soooo exciiiiited they really are doing a reunion.

they look better now than they did back then... man can posh's boobs look ANY faker?

If they don't perf. 2 become 1, I'm not going.

Lol, you are so funny. I remember being in the what...3rd grade and freaking OUT about the spice girls....I'm a sophmore in college now and i'm still getting that giddy feeling. Scary Spice was my idol lol.....I think i'm going to go pop in my Spice World dvd....

omgsh
i used to love spice girls
and i always wanted to buy their dolls, and most the time they were sold out too!
they are old now

posh...and those fake things

the only one i recognize was posh cuz her pics are in the news. and emma too. she looks almost the same.. geri looks weird in that outfit. anyways, glad they're back together even if it's a "one night stand".

Geri is like...An old lady now, will she be able to get back into her Ginger days?
They all have gained weight over the years, except for Victoria...She's gone down a size or two...Or three...And it looks like her boobs are going to pop out any minute. I don't know how I feel about this, I haven't heard any of the sing or seen them perform in ages.

RAAAAH!! i've been praying for this day since AGES ago!!!

-------------------removed

ahhh i want to go!!!! looks like i have to get a ticket to cali

Well of course some of them look liketheyve gained weight....Mel B had a kid....so did victoria...and so did geri and emma is pregnant.


I wish I could go but I cant get to any of them from WA

i was a big spice girls fan back then..i remember my old cds were scratched up because they've been overplayed..aww i miss them..i want to c them in concert..

victoria doesnt look too happy hahaha

Oh, my goodness.... I would so go. Don't you just love reliving in your childhood? =D

lol victoria never looks happy most of the time. ahhh i'm so excited. i remember i was devasted in third grade when gerri left. haha i wonder if any of my friends will go with me

Wow It`s so cool! But I`m so sad they don`t go in France!!!!

YAY!! Good thing I'm in Sydney!! I can't believe this. Definitely getting myself a ticket!

So, we'll be reading and hearing a lot about them again even if they say that they are really not making a comeback. After the concert in 11 places, they will release a greatest hits, then a tell all book.... But so nice to see them again, older. Still my fave is sporty.

comparing how they looked back then and now.

all the spice girls look better/stayed the same.. except babyspice and the redhead (forgot her name). LOL

STOP TO THE TOP

so apparently "Stop" was their only single that didn't get to number 1, and for all the fans who would... like to help; theres a myspace dedicated to getting "Stop" to number 1. :x

http://myspace.com/spicegirls2007

to help get it to #1 you have to download it from various sites, and if you're not from UK (which most of us aren't ? :( ) you have to pay. ;O

Why Choose Stop?
The reason that we have picked the Spice Girls single 'Stop' is because this was the only Spice Girl song not to get to number one in the charts.

There has been many rumours of a Spice Girls reunion and on the 28th June the girls announced that they were coming back to do a final goodbye. The girls will be touring the world throughout December 2007 and January 2008.

Downloading Stop
Download the song now from a download site where it is eligble to count towards the UK singles chart.

Only Purchase One From Each Site As If You Download More Than Once From The Same Site It Will Not Count Towards The Chart. You Can Purchase From A Different Site To Get A Better Chance Of 'Stop' Getting In The Charts.


You can find a whole bunch of links on the myspace page that i linked... somewhere in this post :xx

OOMMGG yea me 2 I was in love with that movie.. I watched it when I was little haha and the only things I remember are..
~Their realllllyy cool looking tour bus~~!!
~ one of the spice girls friend or something was like pregnant in the movie hehe (i think she was asian too)
~Oo and victoria (posh was it...??) being a total "I dont really care about anything person..

Oo the good old days..

i think because their solo careers have all died and nobody cares, this tour reunion will bring them much needed attention and not to mention a lot of much needed $$$$$$$.... well for 4 of them at least

scary spice is the only one who looks absolutely amazing.
so does baby spice, but she aged.
posh spice... I used to like her, but she bothers me for some reason. I think its her OBVIOUSLY boob job.

---
there are people who are ACTUALLY going?
I know they were good childhood memories where we used to all wanna be baby spice
and collect all those lollipop stickers... but let's be real. lol

victoria's boobs..... they look like theyre going to pop out soon...... she got skinnier but her boobs 'grew'~ tsk

This puts a smile on my face. A SPICE GIRLS REUNION <333 I think they all aged wonderfully; even if Geri may look like an 'old lady' but whatever, she's still beautiful. Victoria's boobs look whoa...compared to the rest of her body.

I'd so go to the concert in LA

why wouldnt they come to canada? JERKS!

wow, has it really been 9 years?? haha, i remember singing along to their songs when i was a kid^^. have to agree with some of the posters above, they did look better before. i didn't even recognize mel.b at first glance since she no longer has that afro of hers, lol. but yah... am definately looking forward to their comeback

oh wow... a Spicegirl comeback

I still remember back in the days when everyone was into
Spicegirls.
Ahh... I miss them!

i think im gonna buy their cd....

wehehehe....

cos i used to liked them a lot.....

OMFG. looking for tickets as we speak.
I'll be at the LA one for sure
but who wont? hahha
