The Return Of The Spice Girls
The Spice Girls re-unite for unique World Tour, definitive Documentary and long overdue Greatest Hits CD
After many years of speculation and rumour, one of Britain's biggest ever global success stories announced their reunion tour to the world's media at the O2 Arena, London today.
Eleven years after they began to re-write the record books as one of the biggest selling girl groups of all time, Victoria Beckham, Melanie Brown, Emma Bunton, Melanie Chisholm and Geri Halliwell announced the 11 date tour, spanning six continents to over four hundred of the world's media.
From Europe to North and South America, Africa, Asia and Australia, the famous five will globe trot to the four corners of the planet, treating fans old and new to a brand new, state of the art live extravaganza under the banner, 'The Return of the Spice Girls'.
Fifty five million records sold, an astonishing nine UK No.1 singles, three-back-to-back UK Christmas No.1 singles and, in 'Wannabe', the biggest selling single ever by an all female group, the Spice Girls have very little to prove, except that proper pop is back.
The Girls showed what the world has been missing since they set out to forge their own careers in 2001, answering questions from the media in their usual irrepressible style, once again displaying that irresistible group dynamic.
Back together again, they invited the world to join in the fun, calling for fans to register for tickets at the new website www.thespicegirls.com.
To celebrate the reunion The Spice Girls will be making their first ever official documentary for TV broadcast around the world with highly respected director Bob Smeaton ('Beatles Anthology', 'Who's Next'). The documentary will tell the definitive story of The Spice Girls.
A long overdue Greatest Hits album is set for release at Christmas.
The Spice Girls are represented globally by Simon Fuller's 19 Entertainment.
