Victoria Beckham on Spice Girls Reunion: ‘It’s Tempting’ But Complicated
October 17, 2025
The fashion mogul and former Posh Spice reveals mixed feelings about returning to the stage as speculation grows about a potential 30th anniversary celebration.
In a moment that sent a jolt of excitement through 90s pop culture enthusiasts everywhere, Victoria Beckham recently admitted the idea of a Spice Girls reunion is “tempting,” specifically imagining the group performing at Las Vegas’ groundbreaking Sphere venue. The comments, made during an October 2025 interview on SiriusXM’s Andy Cohen Live, have ignited fresh speculation about whether the iconic girl group might reunite for their 30th anniversary .
Yet, in a revealing twist that captures her complex relationship with her past, Victoria Beckham quickly tempered expectations by questioning her own vocal abilities and emphasizing her commitments to the fashion empire she’s built over nearly two decades. This push-and-pull between nostalgia and present-day ambitions defines the current chapter for the artist-turned-mogul .
“I Have a Job”: The Reality Behind the Reunion Fantasy
During her candid conversation with Andy Cohen, Victoria Beckham displayed the self-deprecating humor fans have come to appreciate in recent years. When presented with the reunion idea, she responded enthusiastically about the concept before undercutting it with practical concerns .
“It would be tempting,” she acknowledged. “But could I take on a world tour? No I can’t. I have a job… How good would the Spice Girls be at the Sphere! I love the idea of it” .
She then added with characteristic dryness, “I mean, I don’t know if I could even still sing, I mean I was never that great!” .
This isn’t the first time Victoria Beckham has teased reunion possibilities. After attending an Oasis reunion show in September, she took to her Instagram Story with footage of the performance, simply captioning it “Tempting” and tagging her former bandmates—a move that immediately fueled fan speculation .
From Pop Star to Powerhouse: The Victoria Beckham Evolution
To understand the complexity of Victoria Beckham’s reunion deliberations, one must appreciate her two-decade journey from pop sensation to respected fashion designer. She recently revealed at a New York City event that she has spent years “fighting those preconceptions” of being defined by her four years as Posh Spice while building her brand .
“I’ve been in fashion now for coming up two decades, and I was in the Spice Girls for a four-year period, and I’ve been so defined by that four-year period,” she told Vanity Fair’s Mark Guiducci at an event co-hosted by Anna Wintour. “I’m so proud to say I was a Spice Girl. But I have to say I’ve been fighting those preconceptions for coming up to two decades now” .
Her Netflix documentary series, Victoria Beckham, released in October 2025, represents a culmination of this rebranding effort. She describes the filming process as “a year of intense therapy” that allowed her to finally reflect on her past without worrying about damaging the brand she’s carefully constructed .
The documentary reveals that during the Spice Girls’ 2007-2008 reunion tour, Victoria Beckham realized she no longer belonged on stage. “It was good to celebrate the Spice Girls, but it was during that tour that I realized I didn’t belong on stage. It had been fun, but it wasn’t what I loved anymore,” she shares in the series .
Between Past and Present: The Balancing Act
Victoria Beckham now occupies a unique space between embracing her legacy and moving beyond it. She acknowledges the profound impact the Spice Girls had on her personal development, telling audiences, “Before I was in the Spice Girls, I was so self-conscious and they made me feel that I was good enough” .
Yet she contrasts this with her current perspective: “Being on stage, I realized as fun as it is, you know, it’s not ultimately what I want to do anymore” .
This tension between past and present was visibly displayed recently when three of her former bandmates—Emma Bunton, Melanie Chisholm, and Geri Halliwell—appeared in support of her Netflix documentary premiere in London. The coordinated reunion on the lilac carpet, with all women sporting monochromatic looks, demonstrated the enduring bond between the group, even as Mel B was notably absent .
The table below summarizes Victoria Beckham’s contrasting perspectives on her Spice Girls legacy versus her current identity:
The Human Side of Girl Power
The story of Victoria Beckham and the potential Spice Girls reunion transcends typical celebrity speculation, touching on universal themes of identity evolution and the complex relationship people have with their past selves. Now 51, Beckham has moved from the young woman who famously refused to smile in photos to someone who can joke about herself with confidence .
This transformation was evident in her documentary, where she revealed aspects of her life she hadn’t originally planned to share, including struggles with body image and an eating disorder during her youth. “I didn’t go into this documentary process even thinking I was going to talk about that. It just naturally came up in conversation,” she explained .
Meanwhile, the other Spice Girls have expressed varying degrees of enthusiasm about reuniting. Mel C has confirmed the group is discussing how to acknowledge their 30th anniversary, telling listeners, “Next year is a big year for us and we have to acknowledge it in some way”. She added that while she and Emma Bunton would “be back on stage,” “sometimes other people need a little bit more convincing” .
What’s Next for the Spice Girls?
The most recent time all five Spice Girls performed together was at Victoria Beckham’s 50th birthday party in April 2024, where they delivered an impromptu mini-set of “Stop” and “Mama” at London’s private club Oswald’s. David Beckham captured the moment and shared it on social media with the caption, “I mean come on” .
Prior to that, their last full performance together was at the London 2012 Summer Olympics closing ceremony, with Victoria Beckham having sat out the group’s 2019 reunion tour .
While the future of the group remains uncertain, Victoria Beckham has come to terms with her place in its legacy. “I will always be Posh Spice,” she declared at her New York appearance. “I’m so thankful and I’m proud to have been a Spice Girl. People say that they love the Spice Girls and the Spice Girls, you know, made them feel good enough. And the Spice Girls did that to me” .
For millions of fans who grew up with the mantra of “Girl Power,” the dream of a full Spice Girls reunion continues to flicker—tempted by the possibility of a spectacular Sphere residency, but tempered by the reality of five women who have grown into distinctly different lives.
