The Spice Girls have reportedly cancelled plans for a 30th anniversary reunion tour after failing to reach an agreement. The girl group, which originally formed in 1994, had been in discussions to mark the milestone with a series of performances.
Melanie C confirmed the news in an interview with Australia's KIIS Radio, stating: 'No, there is no reunion. We are communicating all the time. We want to do something – who knows when. But I still feel very optimistic and I keep my fingers crossed that you will see the Spice Girls together at some point in the future.'
According to The Sun, negotiations broke down and plans for a comeback tour in 2026 have been scrapped. The setback comes despite recent signs of unity, with Geri Halliwell-Horner, Emma Bunton, and Melanie C attending the premiere of Victoria Beckham's Netflix series.
Melanie B was notably absent from the premiere, with Victoria Beckham referencing a past confrontation during the Spice Girls' 2007 reunion tour. In her documentary, Beckham recalled being told by Mel B: 'Don't forget where you come from.'
Victoria Beckham previously expressed openness to a Las Vegas residency at the Sphere, but ruled out a world tour due to her current commitments. The 2019 Spice World Tour, which featured four of the five original members, was a major success with 13 stadium dates across the UK and Ireland.
Fans will now have to wait longer for any potential reunion, as Mel C emphasised the group's desire to ensure any future project is 'the right thing' before proceeding.
