Mel B has revealed that she cried after seeing a workshop for the upcoming Spice Girls musical Viva Forever!.

The 90s pop group are the inspiration for the new musical, which is set to launch at the end of the year in London.

Mel B said that she got emotional watching the musical’s team prepare for the show. She said:

“I have been to see the workshop for the theatre show and it did make me cry. Maybe it’s me getting older.”

Mel B also commented on rumours that the original members of the band don’t quite see eye to eye these days, claiming that they are all still on good terms. She said:

“We are friends. Even though I call them my bitches, I love them. I am always up for a Spice Girls reunion.”

The ‘Wannabe’ stars have been heavily linked with performing at the Olympic Games closing ceremony on August 12 in London but there has been no official confirmation yet.

Iconic British girl group the Spice Girls have revealed their regret and disappointment at not having performed at the Queen’s Jubilee Concert over the bank holiday weekend.

Back in February, Mel C confirmed that the girl power pioneers would not be taking part in the nationwide celebrations and told Lorraine Kelly:

“Unfortunately we don’t plan to perform or reform, so I’m sorry to disappoint anybody. We often have things that we talk about and it was something that we discussed, but unfortunately it’s not going to happen.”

All Saints singer Nicole Appleton tweeted a public message to both Melanie C and Emma Bunton telling them the Spice Girls should have performed at the Diamond Jubilee Concert: “Ok the spice girls should have rocked this show!!..Xxx”

Mel C also added: “Bit miffed I’m not down at Buckingham Palace :-( x”

Mel B refuses to rule out Spice Girls reunion

Mel B has suggested that there’s still a possibility the Spice Girls may reform for the upcoming Queen’s Diamond Jubilee concert.

Speaking to presenter Nadia Sawalha on ITV’s ‘Lorraine,’ the 36-year-old refused to confirm Melanie C’s recent comments that the band weren’t going to appear at the Buckingham Palace event on June 4:

“I never say never. I’m always up for a Spice Girls reunion.

“It’s my perfect excuse to get my boots on, get my hair going, being louder than life.”

The new ‘Dancing With The Stars Australia’ co-host fuelled rumours about their possible appearance in a Twitter message last month, but has since been contradicted by both Melanie C and then Geri Halliwell, who hinted that Victoria Beckham had declined an offer to perform at the show.
