Apparently The Spice Girls are meeting up for a reunion dinner to discuss talks of a possible come back, including Geri Halliwell. Never mind the fact that she buried her alter ego ’Ginger’ - who in truth was a far more scary creation than anything that Mel B ever did…

The girls are now all in their late twenties and since the Spice Girls have been known for various reasons - a famous footballing husband, weight disorders, yoga, being dropped by their record labels and having a few babies / hits - so can they still pull off a possible last ’Baby’ stage outing?
