Spice Girls Tour 2016 Now Includes Victoria Beckham? Singer To Join Select Shows Only?
The Spice Girls tour this 2016 will supposedly still include "Posh Spice" Victoria Beckham in selected shows.
In an interview with BBC Newsbeat, group member Geri Halliwell revealed that their highly anticipated reunion will only feature four original members: "Baby Spice" Emma Bunton, "Sporty Spice" Melanie Chisholm, "Scary Spice" Melanie Brown and herself.
"We will regroup, but for most of it we'll just have the four of us," "Ginger Spice" announced, as quoted by the source above. "It's not all concrete yet, but soon we'll announce that it's definite."
However, an insider close to Victoria Beckham revealed that the mother-of-four will try to join certain legs of the Spice Girls tour 2016.
"There are still lots of details to sort out, but Victoria's said she'll perform with the girls for some of the shows," an insider said, according to the source.
A report from Las Vegas Sun listed the venues that Posh Spice will supposedly be part of, namely London, Los Angeles, New York, Miami and Las Vegas.
Victoria Beckham previously explained in a Vanity Fair feature why she decided to leave the phenomenal pop quintet. The wife of football star David Beckham said she considers their show at the 2012 London Olympics as her last performance.
"Sometimes you've got to know when it's time to leave the party," said the singer turned fashion entrepreneur. "Doing the Olympics was an incredible honour. I was so proud to do it. That was a perfect time to say, 'That's great. Thank you to everybody, but no more.'"
According to a report from Express UK, Mel B tried to convince Victoria Beckham to join the concert series, pointing out that it is their group's 20th anniversary.
"To be serious, it is our twentieth anniversary this year and it would be rude not to celebrate," the "X-Factor UK" judge said. "Hopefully something will be happening pretty soon."
Band mate Mel C also previously explained to The Sun that she might not participate in the concert series if Victoria Beckham will not join.
"Mel believes the band has to be the original five-piece and Victoria needs to be involved," an insider said.
Whether Victoria will join all shows in the Spice Girls tour for 2016 or not, fans are sure that the tickets will be sold out.
