Mel C insists Spice Girls ‘have to celebrate’ their 30th anniversary

January 13, 2026 – Radio 854 Music News:

Mel C has reignited hopes of a Spice Girls reunion, insisting the iconic girl group has to celebrate its upcoming 30th anniversary.

Speaking about the milestone, the Sporty Spice star said it would be “unthinkable” for the group to let the moment pass without marking three decades since they burst onto the pop scene. Formed in 1994, the Spice Girls went on to become one of the most successful pop acts of all time, selling millions of records worldwide and defining an era with hits like Wannabe, Say You’ll Be There and Spice Up Your Life.

Mel C acknowledged that organising anything involving all five members — Victoria Beckham, Melanie Brown, Emma Bunton and Geri Halliwell — is never straightforward, but stressed the importance of celebrating the band’s legacy.

“There has to be something,” she said, adding that the anniversary is a chance to honour not only the music, but also the message of friendship, empowerment and individuality that made the Spice Girls global icons.

While no official plans have been confirmed, Mel C’s comments will undoubtedly excite fans who have long hoped for another reunion. The group last performed together as a five-piece during their 2012 London Olympics appearance, with Victoria Beckham sitting out later reunion tours.

Whether it’s a live performance, a special release or another surprise, Mel C’s words suggest that Spice World may not be done celebrating just yet.
