Victoria Beckham on Reuniting With The Spice Girls: ‘It’s Tempting’

If the Gallagher brothers can get the old band back together, freezing hell in the process, maybe the Spice Girls can too.

That’s the train of thought from Victoria Beckham, who caught up with Andy Cohen and John Hill for a forthcoming special on SiriusXM’s Andy Cohen Live.

Beckham — or Posh, to members everywhere of the Girl Power brigade — spoke with Cohen and Hill to promote her new self-titled Netflix documentary series, when conversation inevitably turned to the Spice Girls.

“Before I was in the Spice Girls,” she remarks in a snippet of the interview, “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.”

But would she consider a residency? Somewhere flash, like the Sphere in Las Vegas?

“It’s tempting,” she remarks. “It would be tempting, but could I take on a world tour? I can’t. I have a job.”

Beckham, whose husband David, the retired English soccer great with the brilliant right foot who is known to a generation of sports fans as “Golden Balls,” a nickname she coined, was inspired by another reunited British act from the 1990s, Oasis, whose comeback trek is heading to Australian stadiums later this month.

“I love the idea of it,” Beckham says of another round of Spice Girls shows. “I mean, I don’t know if I could even still sing. I mean I was never that great.”

Beckham last performed with the Spice Girls in April 2024 at her 50th birthday party at the swanky London private club Oswald’s, where Posh, Scary, Sporty, Baby and Ginger sang an impromptu mini-set of “Stop” and “Mama”. Prior to that, the last time all five members performed together was at the London 2012 Summer Olympics closing ceremony.

The Spice Girls formed in 1994, and had a global phenomenon two years later with their debut single, 1996’s “Wannabe.” The catchy track logged four weeks at the summit of the Billboard Hot 100 in early 1997, and is one of the group’s nine U.K. No. 1 singles. The Brits’ debut LP Spice cruised to five weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, and 15 weeks at the summit of the Official U.K. Albums Chart (followup Spiceworld bagged three weeks at No. 1 in the U.K. in 1997).

The group went on hiatus in 2000, returning in 2007 for a global tour and again in 2018-2019, though without Beckham, who has not participated in the group’s activities for more than a decade.

In the clip below, Beckham also talks about the disappearance of her “boobs,” the tabloid fodder that was English soccer’s WAGs (wives and girlfriends) era, and her MO to “empower women and I want to share my tips and tricks with women.”

Cohen’s interview with Beckham will air on SiriusXM’s Andy Cohen Live on Tuesday, Oct. 28.

Victoria Beckham is now streaming on Netflix.
