Any hopes that there would be a Spice Girls reunion tour have been dashed as it is revealed that certain band members have decided against it.
There had been rumours circulating for a while about a possible reunion tour on the cards to coincide with the anniversary of their first single - Wannabe - reaching number one. However, after Mel C apparently went all the way to Madrid to discuss plans with Victoria Beckham the two ladies decided against it.
A source told The Sun: "Melanie has never really been into the idea of performing with the girls again. She is proud of everything they did together but she has moved on.
"She wants to concentrate on solo work. She met with Victoria, who was thinking the same thing. Posh is now heavily into fashion and realised the Spice tour had the potential to be a PR disaster.”
It was not only Mel C and Victoria that stamped on the reunion, however, Geri is quite happily pregnant and so also unavailable the source explained: "Geri Halliwell is expecting a baby in the summer so she's not going to be in any position to start rehearsing for a while.
"Emma Bunton and Mel B both wanted to do it but now Victoria and Melanie C have vetoed it."
