The Spice Girls are set to reunite – all five of them – for a new documentary.
Victoria Beckham, who has previously turned down opportunities to get back together with her bandmates, is tipped to be involved in the new project.
Posh Spice missed the group’s massive stadium tour in 2019, but is believed to be rejoining Geri Halliwell, Mel B, Mel C and Emma Bunton for a documentary charting their rise to stardom, The Hoot reports.
It’s understood that the 90s popstars will work with director Jason Hehir, who was behind the acclaimed Michael Jordon documentary The Last Dance.

Leeds’ own Melanie Brown, aka Scary Spice, said that her Masked Singer Australia co-star Dave Hughes spilled the beans about the new project.

She said: “I told Dave, when the cameras were off, that we’ve signed our documentary to the guys that did The Last Dance, and he went and told the whole audience!
“I think I did say, ‘We’ve only just signed it, it hasn’t been announced yet,’ and then he told everyone!”
On Hehir, Mel added: “The director and the whole concept of how that was shot and filmed was really, really, really, really good. So, we’ll be doing our own version with them.”

Pet Shop Boys named amongst latest wave of unreal acts set to play MTV EMAs at Co-op Live
Danny Jones
Synth-pop legends Pet Shop Boys are among the latest names to have been added to the artists set to play the MTV EMAs in Manchester next month.
The 2024 MTV EMAs ceremony is coming to the state-of-the-art Co-op Live arena, the biggest indoor entertainment venue of its kind in Europe, for its Manchester debut on 10 November and the lineup of performers and presenters has already pricked up our ears.
Raye, Shawn Mendes and Teddy Swims are just a few of those previously announced, so we were pretty happy to begin with, but now the English duo and 1980s are in the mix we’re starting to get very excited.
Make way, Mancs, because the Pet Shop Boys and their ‘West End Girls’ are coming our way – they’re not the only ones either…
Confirming the news on Wednesday afternoon, MTV revealed that not only will Pet Shop Boys be performing on the highly-anticipated night, but they will also be joined by the likes of K-pop girl group, Le Sserafim and Mexican musician, Peso Pluma.
Perhaps most excitingly, these new additions will also be joined by South African pop and R’n’B star: the new ‘Queen of Popiana’ herself, Tyla.
The 22-year-old amapiano singer – best known for her breakthrough single ‘Water’, which was an instant hit on the radio, and online and even spawned a viral TikTok dance craze – hasn’t performed in Manchester before given her career is still in its early days
Make no mistake either way, she’s one of the fastest-rising acts on the planet right now and it’s a really big get for the 30th year of the annual award ceremony.
Once again, the 2024 MTV EMAs in Manchester take place on Sunday, 10 November, where huge stars like Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Beyoncé and more are all nominated, not to mention names like Pet Shops, Boys, Tyla and Raye will all be performing.
Audio North is even hosting an exclusive competition for win tickets, a hotel stay and more ahead of the event, but entry runs out this Thursday, 30 October, you best enter quickly!
If you’ve still not made it to Manchester’s game-changing new live music venue, believe us, you’re about to be blown away…
MTV EMAs reveal full list of performers and presenters ahead of Manchester debut at Co-op Live

The performers for the 2024 MTV EMAs have been announced today, with some very famous faces making an appearance.
This year sees Manchester crowned the home of the prestigious award ceremony for the first time ever, and what better way to celebrate than hosting in the UK’s newest live entertainment venue Co-op Live
Tooting-born Rachel Keen, more famously known as Raye, is flying the flag for the UK on the MTV EMAs stage as she will be the only British act performing this year so far.
The musical talent is no stranger to award shows as this year has been very successful for her following a sweep at this year’s BRITs such as ‘Song of the Year’ and ‘British Artist of the Year’.
Earlier this month, the entertainment brand announced the full awards list and nominations including household names like Taylor Swift, Beyoncé and Ariana Grande.

Raye will be sharing the stage with a handful of acts like Shawn Mendes and Teddy Swims with more names to be announced very soon.
Mendes has amassed a large cult following for his guitar-heavy singles like ‘Stitches’, ‘There’s Nothin’ Holding Me Back’ and the steamy 2019 single ‘Señorita’ with Camila Cabello.
Pop singer and vocal belting God, Teddy Swims has come into the spotlight recently since releasing his songs onto social media with his standout single ‘Lose Control’ – which he also performed with the one and only Kelly Clarkson – gaining lots of traction, especially on TikTok.
There’s also buzz around rising star Benson Boone after his hit ‘Beautiful Things’ followed the same trajectory of Swims becoming an overnight star due to its virality.
Mexican rock band The Warning are also taking to the stage and like many other acts who are set to play, this will be their first time performing at this incredible new music venue.

The performers and nominees won’t be the only recognisable faces attending the event as the presenters helping give out the awards are stars too.
Manchester is set to become a mini Hollywood for one night only as acting royalty Jodie Turner-Smith, known for her role as Anne Boleyn, is just one of the presenters for the award show.
Aaron Taylor Johnson, who has starred in Avengers: Age of Ultron, Bullet Train, as well as UK cult classic film, Angus, Thongs And Perfect Snogging, will also be there on the evening.
Lucien Laviscount and Gavin Rosendale are joining the presenting team too, with more big names set to be announced very soon.
