Victoria Beckham Admits the Prospect of a Spice Girls Reunion Is “Tempting”

Victoria Beckham is a busy woman, what with her eponymous fashion brand, Victoria Beckham Beauty, and her new three-part Netflix docuseries. But could the world have its collective dream come true and have a Spice Girls reunion? Well, maybe—Posh Spice said so herself.

Beckham was one-fifth of the girl group that took the 1990s by storm, and when asked about a reunion in a new interview with Andy Cohen on Andy Cohen Live, she said the prospect was “tempting.”

Following the Spice Girls’ informal reunion at Beckham’s 50th birthday party last year, Beckham said specifically that she loves the idea of the group performing at the Sphere as opposed to a global tour. “Could I take on a world tour?” Beckham said. “No, I can’t. I have a job.”

“How good would the Spice Girls be at the Sphere?” she continued. “I love the idea of it. I mean, I don’t know if I could even still sing. I mean, I was never that great.”

The last time the Spice Girls officially performed was a full 13 years ago, at the closing ceremony for the London Olympics in 2012. Keeping expectations to a minimum, Beckham told Cohen, “Before I was in the Spice Girls, I was so self-conscious and they made me feel that I was good enough—but being on stage, I realized as fun as it is, you know, it’s not ultimately what I want to do anymore.”

In a separate interview with Vanity Fair’s Mark Guiducci this week, Beckham said that she has been “fighting those preconceptions” of being a Spice Girl for 20 years now. “I’ve been in fashion now for coming up two decades, and I was in the Spice Girls for a four-year period, and I’ve been so defined by that four-year period,” Beckham said of her time in the group. “I’m so proud to say I was a Spice Girl,” she said, adding that “I will always be Posh Spice.”

“I’m so thankful and proud to have been a Spice Girl,” she said. “People say that they love the Spice Girls and the Spice Girls, you know, made them feel good enough. And the Spice Girls did that to me.”

“They made me realize that I was enough,” she added. “If it wasn’t for the Spice Girls, I genuinely would be very shy. I would be a very, very different person.”

Of her docuseries—which debuted on October 9—Beckham said it was the right time to “reflect on my past without it damaging the brand that I’ve spent 20 years building,” comparing the filming experience to “intense therapy.”

“I’m always living in the present and looking forward,” she said. “I’m very ambitious. I like to dream really, really big, but I have to say, having a bird’s eye view for the first time looking back at my journey, I feel really proud.”

“And for the first time, I feel good enough,” Beckham continued. “I’ve been told no so many times, ever since I was very, very young, and that gave me another reason to do it.” She added that her husband David Beckham, whose own Netflix docuseries came out in 2023, gave her the “confidence” to film the series, saying, “I question why anyone would be interested to see what I do every day, and it’s been such a journey. And one that I’ve actually really, really enjoyed.”

After all, David might be the key to unlocking a Spice Girls reunion—hey, he’s done it before. In the docuseries, Beckham said that her husband “guilted” her into the 2008 Spice Girls reunion tour, saying that “our kids weren’t around to see their mum be a Spice Girl.”

“David was like, ‘It’s really good for the kids to see you do this,’” she said. “He mum-guilted me!”

Of the 2008 tour, “It was good to celebrate the Spice Girls, but it was during that tour that I realized I didn’t belong onstage. It had been fun, but it wasn’t what I loved anymore.”

“I have never forgotten where I’ve come from,” she added. “I have never forgotten that Posh Spice is the reason that I’m sitting here now. She might have been grumpy, but she was actually great.”
