It’s hard to believe, but the iconic Spice Girls are closing in on their 30th anniversary since their breakthrough hit, Wannabe.
Naturally, fans everywhere are buzzing about the possibility of a reunion — and this time, there’s a pretty wild idea on the table that might just change the game.
Simon Fuller’s Vision for a Digital Spice Girls Reunion
Simon Fuller, the former Spice Girls manager and creator of Pop Idol, is reportedly cooking up some big plans for the band’s comeback.
The 65-year-old mogul is said to be inspired by the success of ABBA’s hologram show — the same idea he helped bring to life.
Instead of a traditional reunion tour, Fuller might have found a clever way to get the Spice Girls back on stage as digital avatars.
Could Victoria Beckham Finally Be Part of It?
We all know Posh Spice, Victoria Beckham, has been hesitant about rejoining the group, with reports saying she’s “90 percent out.”
But Fuller’s avatar idea might be the perfect compromise — letting her participate without the full pressure of live performances.
A source mentioned that Victoria wouldn’t block the project if the whole group agreed to it, signaling some openness from her side.
A Money-Making Machine for a New Generation
Fuller sees this approach as a win-win.
Not only would it bring in money “while they sleep,” but it would also introduce the Spice Girls’ music to younger generations who might not have experienced the original 90s magic.
If successful, this digital reunion could become a pioneering model for other legendary acts.
The History Between Simon Fuller and the Beckhams
It’s worth noting that Victoria and her husband David Beckham parted ways with Fuller’s agency about seven years ago after a fallout, buying out his 33 percent stake in their business ventures.
The couple paid around £38 million to gain full control of Beckham Brand Holdings, which includes their stake in the Inter Miami football club.
Spice Girls Tour Updates and Member Opinions
Recently, Mel C (Sporty Spice) opened up about the upcoming reunion tour on the No Filter with Kate Langbroek podcast.
She shared that while she and Emma Bunton are on board, at least one member — apparently Geri Halliwell-Horner (Ginger Spice) — still needs some convincing to hit the stage again.
Mel C emphasized how important next year will be, hinting that the group wants to do something special to mark their 30-year milestone.
Geri’s Possible Hesitation and the F1 Connection
Geri has stayed coy about rejoining the tour, possibly influenced by the recent controversies involving her husband Christian Horner, the Red Bull F1 team principal.
With racing events and Simon Fuller’s ties to Red Bull, it seems like an ideal setting for discussions to happen and maybe get her back on board.
Why the Reunion Would Mean So Much
Mel C explained that a full reunion would be amazing and feels like a responsibility to fans around the world.
The Spice Girls’ 2019 shows brought a lot of joy during tough times, and she believes that in today’s chaotic world, a little “spice” is exactly what people need.
Mel B’s Humorous Take on Tour Secrets
Meanwhile, Mel B joked that the group is keeping important tour details from her because “she can’t keep her mouth shut.”
She laughed off the secrecy but also expressed enthusiasm for another tour, keeping fans excited for what’s to come.
Looking Back and Looking Forward
Since their official breakup, rumors of reunions have floated around, with members like Mel B showing eagerness to return to the stage.
The Spice Girls last toured together in 2020, but Victoria Beckham wasn’t part of that run.
The last time all five performed together was during the London 2012 Olympics opening ceremony.
