Posted February 19, 20223 yr Apparently they've been approached (Victoria included) by the BBC to perform at the Queens Platinum Jubilee concert on June 4th. If true I'd be very surprised if we didn't see all five again for this.
February 19, 20223 yr I don’t know just can’t see Victoria doing it tbh. I suppose it’s the biggest thing bar Glastonbury to pull them together now?
February 19, 20223 yr I'm sure they've been approached they get offered everything, Hyde park, Glasto, Live Aid, the queens last jubilee in 2012, the Olympics and lots of other things. It is just a case of if all 5 say yes or if whatever is offering them would be happy with 4. I think personally they would be mad to turn this down, it will be huge and they can easily get away with a 3 or 4 song set that last 15-20 minutes. Short but sweet.

February 19, 20223 yr I could see the other four doing it if Victoria won't, it's whether the event organisers would be ok with that. Same as with Glasto it may be a 5 or nothing type thing.
February 19, 20223 yr To be honest I think the 5 or nothing has sailed now that the 4 remaining ones have established themselves as a viable offer with touring and merchandise sales. As much as the media likes to trash them and create conflict, I dont think there is an issue anymore of Victoria not being present.
February 19, 20223 yr Apprently Mel C said tonight at her gig that they havent discussed the invitation yet
February 20, 20223 yr Interesting so an invite has definitely been issued then. I wonder if the four would do it without Victoria or if that is not an option?
February 20, 20223 yr Unlike the closing ceremony of the Olympics, which is a global event watched by hundreds of millions of people, the Platinum Jubilee is mainly a British event that will not attract much attention around the world (will it even be televised overseas?), so I actually won't be too upset if they choose to refuse the invitation.
February 20, 20223 yr The queens jubilee will be broadcast worldwide, like all major UK royal engagements. It will be massive like Kate/William's wedding ect. The Queen is the most recognisable and photographed woman in the world. She is so far above any celeb in terms of pulling power. This will be huge and it has been in the planning for a long time spice girls or not. Edited February 20, 20223 yr by sammy01
February 20, 20223 yr Really hope they do it, not bothered if it’s a 4 or 5 piece but just hope they get the chance to do it without Victoria if she is not up for it
February 20, 20223 yr Author Yeah this will definitely be a big deal worldwide. Just look at the popularity of The Crown on Netflix. The British royals generate a lot of interest whether liked or not.
February 21, 20223 yr Seems Geri may not want to do it! Cant blame her she could be a beat behind the others and face the ridicule globally.
February 21, 20223 yr Seems Geri may not want to do it! Source? And what about Victoria, is she up for it?
February 21, 20223 yr Seems Geri may not want to do it! I heard the only person allowed to dress white is the Queen. So, probably Geri will refuse...
February 21, 20223 yr If they did agree to perform, what songs do you think they should include in their set? Looking at the Diamond Jubilee Concert, most artists got to do two songs, but there were a handful who did more - Paul McCartney 5 songs & Elton John 3 songs. Kylie did a medley of 4 songs and Cliff Richard did a medley of 7 songs. I assume Spice Girls would be considered one of the top acts who'd get to do more than two. Well if they got to do 5, I'd go with... Wannabe, Say You'll Be There, Spice Up Your Life, Stop, Viva Forever. :thinking: Or maybe Who Do You Think You Are instead of Spice Up Your Life, given that that song had its moment at the Olympics (as did Wannabe, but there's no way they wouldn't perform Wannabe). Harder to narrow it down to three, but maybe Wannabe, Say You'll Be There and Stop? Although I'd really love for Viva Forever to have a time to shine. I'd rather they did full length songs than a medley.
February 21, 20223 yr They should do a medley of Gerita's most popular tracks, like So I Give Up On Love, Half of Me and Heaven and Hell (Being Geri Halliwell) :wub:
February 21, 20223 yr They should do a medley of Gerita's most popular tracks, like So I Give Up On Love, Half of Me and Heaven and Hell (Being Geri Halliwell) :wub: The perfect set list :wub: I think Victoria could easily take on one of Half of Me verses and smash it x :cool:
