London — 2019 was the year girl group Spice Girls last performed. One of the group’s members, Melanie Chisholm, better known as Mel C has hinted that the group may be returning to the stage.
On Jun 18, the 47-year-old singer who appeared on ITV’s Good Morning Britain, said of their successful reunion tour two years ago: “It was so much better than we ever could have dreamed of. And we’d be absolute fools to not want to do that again.”
Host Kate Garraway asked if fans will get the chance to see the Spice Girls perform again, Chisholm responded: “Well, you know, that’s the dream.”
The Spice Girls formed in 1994 with five members – Chisholm, Emma Bunton, Geri Halliwell, Melanie Brown, and Victoria Beckham – and catapulted to fame with their hit Wannabe that same year.
The group was known to be advocates of Girl Power, the group had massive global success with other hits such as 2 Become 1 and Spice Up Your Life. They are also one of the biggest girl groups of all time, as reported by Straits Times.
In 2019, four of the Spice Girls reunited for a 13-date sell-out tour of Britain and Ireland. Beckham did not want to take part. 2012 was the last time Beckham shared a stage with the rest of the group at the Olympics Closing Ceremony in London.
Chisholm said that she was “always pushing” for another reunion tour and that they would like to perform in Southeast Asia and Australia.
All the members went on to pursue solo careers after their split in 1998 when Halliwell announced she was leaving in the middle of their world tour.
