Spice Girls to star in Tesco commercial

The Spice Girls have agreed to star in a new TV ad for Tesco, and will each pocket £1 million from the deal.

Emma Bunton, Geri Halliwell, Mel B, Mel C and Victoria Beckham are expected to poke fun at themselves in the commercial, which will start airing shortly after their greatest hits album is released on November 12.

A source told The Mirror: "Tesco is one of the tour sponsors and has been desperate to get them in an advert. They will be sending themselves up, in the tradition of the old Jane Horrocks ads, and viewers should find it funny."

The girls' reunion tour kicks off on 2 December in Vancouver, Canada.
