One of Britain's finest cultural exports, the long-disbanded Spice Girls, reunited for a rare performance at Victoria Beckham's 50th birthday party in London at the weekend.
Beckham's husband David, who was recently the subject of a Netflix documentary, filmed the famous five's impromptu performance of their 1998 hit single 'Stop' before sharing it to his Instagram account with the caption, 'I mean come on.'
The Victoria Beckham Beauty founder then shared the video to her Instagram account with the caption, 'Best night ever! Happy Birthday to me! I love you all so much! #SpiceUpYourLife.' She also shared an image of the five Spice Girls with the caption, 'The best gift to be reunited!! Thank you to all my friends and family for celebrating with me. Kisses! xxx'

The beloved former British band's performance comes after they celebrated the 30th anniversary of their first auditions to become part of the band last month, while Mel B recently hinted at a real reunion during a performance on the Today programme in America. When asked about a potential reunion, she said, 'Oh, I'm going to get in trouble. I'm not saying anything. Ok, bye!'
The last time the band reunited was in 2019 and it was without Victoria, who has been focussing her attention on her fashion and beauty empire.
Prior to her birthday celebrations, Victoria posted to Instagram to say that she felt 'so incredibly blessed to have reached this milestone' and added that she was grateful for the 'unconditional love and support' of David.
Among the pool of A-list guests at the party were Tom Cruise, Eva Longoria and Salma Hayek among many others, who partied at London's private members club Oswald's, before Victoria was seen piggybacking her husband as they exited the party in true Posh style.
