Still a Spice Girl: The Band's Status and 30th Anniversary Plans
At 25:24 · chapter starts 24:30
Louis poses the question directly: are the Spice Girls still together? Melanie C's answer is emphatic — no one has ever formally left, not even Geri ('she left, and she's back now'). Being introduced as a 'former Spice Girl' genuinely offends her, she says. The band is still a functioning business entity, with a shared trademark and active merch operation. Discussions about 30th anniversary events are ongoing, she says, though nothing is confirmed: the challenge is that 'it's so precious to us, it's hard to agree on what everyone feels is the right thing.' A Wembley show remains an enticing but unconfirmed possibility.
