LONDON (AFP) - Tickets for the Spice Girls' comeback concert in London sold out in just 38 seconds, the show's organisers announced on Monday.

Demand was so overwhelming -- more than one million people in Britain registered for the sole London show -- that organisers added three more London dates to the tour.

The five original Spice Girls -- Scary, Sporty, Ginger, Posh and Baby -- will kick off their worldwide reunion tour on December 2 in Vancouver, their first since Geri Halliwell quit in May 1998, with a December 15 concert scheduled at London's O2 arena.

Organisers added London concerts on December 16 and 18 and January 2 to the tour.

The group, made up of Halliwell, Victoria Beckham, Emma Bunton, Melanie Brown and Melanie Chisholm, will also perform in San Jose, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, New York, Cologne, Madrid, Shanghai, Beijing, Hong Kong, Sydney and Cape Town before ending at Buenos Aires on January 24, 2008

The Spice Girls sold over 50 million records worldwide and scored nine British number one singles, including "Wannabe" and "Spice Up Your Life".

They announced they were reforming for a comeback tour in June but have denied the move is financially motivated.

The first one didn't really sell out in 38 seconds cuz you could still buy them half an hour or so after. I think all the tickets were allocated after 38 seconds, but not everyone chose to buy what TM came up with for them. If that makes sense. The tickets were all allocated but not sold.

Spice Girls lease Boeing 757

QUOTE
When the Spice Girls kick off their world tour at the end of the year, they intend to travel in style.


The band – not content with flying first-class – are leasing a Boeing 757 they have nicknamed Spice Force One to jet them around the globe.

The fuselage of the 757 will be adorned with official Spice Girls reunion artwork – and inside it will have facilities including a creche and make-up parlour.

The jet will transport the five girls – Victoria Beckham, Melanie Brown, Emma Bunton, Melanie Chisholm and Geri Halliwell – plus their families, management, wardrobe and make-up assistants and bodyguards.

"Spice Force One will be a flying palace," said my source.

As well as the creche and make-up facilities, it will include a dining room, business centre, state-of-the-art bathrooms, a media centre and sleeping quarters.

Along with the immediate entourage, the girls will have a team of chefs and nannies who will be on hand 24/7 to feed and look after all the VIPs on board."

The eagerly awaited tour kicks off on December 2 and will see the girls visit Vancouver, San Jose, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, New York, Shanghai, Madrid, Beijing, London and Cape Town.

It is the first time all the girls will have appeared on stage together since Geri left in May 1998 – leading to the group eventually splitting in 2001.

In addition to Spice Force One, the band is also set to hire two further jets – dubbed Spice Force Two and Three – for their dancers, remaining staff, stage hands and equipment.

Sources say a budget of between £7million and £10million has been set aside to pay for the three aircraft.

Spice Girls star Mel B has explained that the group were shocked at the rapid ticket sales for their forthcoming reunion tour.

Tickets for the 'Spice Up Your Life' girlband's concert at London's 02 Arena sold out in just 38 seconds last week.

Talking about their popularity, Scary Spice told US chat show host Ellen DeGeneres: "I was amazed. I did actually think 'How is that possible? Is there a lot of people on the phone in one big room?'

"I don't get it. I was really shocked and thought 'Wow! We really have to do it now'. But I'm very excited."

Geri Halliwell revealed last week that the Spice Girls would be following up their Greatest Hits album on November 12 by releasing the single 'Headlines' on November 19.
