Spice Girls reveal secret reunion at Oasis gig years after 'feud' with Liam Gallagher
Oasis' Liam Gallagher and Noel Gallagher performed at Wembley Stadium last week and it's now been revealed that the Spice Girls' Mel C and Geri Horner reunited at one of the gigs Two of the Spice Girls reunited at an Oasis recently almost three decades on from rumoured tension between them. Mel C and Geri Horner were among the fans at Wembley Stadium for one of the rock band's shows last week. The Oasis Live '25 tour arrived at the stadium in London last month for five concerts ahead of additional shows at the venue later in the year. Mel, 51, and Geri, 53, were among those in the crowd at one of the gigs held last week. Geri had previously shared that she had met three of the Lionesses whilst in the audience. Now, in a post celebrating her birthday today, it has been revealed that 'Ginger Spice' reunited with her former bandmate Mel in the stands too. Mel, nicknamed Sporty Spice, paid tribute to Geri in a post on Instagram this morning for the occasion. She wrote: "Happy Birthday darling @gerihalliwellhorner, our Ginger Spice. Have an amazing day, love you to pieces." The post included a series of photos showing them over the years. It included a photo of Mel and Geri stood together in the stands at Wembley Stadium recently, with the former sporting a lanyard that featured Oasis' band logo. Mel is seen wearing a blue top and trousers, whilst Geri attended the gig in a white jumpsuit. It appears to be the same outfit Geri was wearing in a photo with England footballers Alex Greenwood, 31, Hannah Hampton, 24, and Alessia Russo, 26, at an Oasis gig last Wednesday. It comes following speculation of a 'feud' between the Spice Girls and Oasis, which includes Liam Gallagher, 52, and Noel Gallagher, 58, in its line-up, years ago. Mel's previously said that there is "no beef" between them though. The rumour dates back to the BRIT Awards in 1997, when both bands were up for awards. Hinting an issue with the Spice Girls, Liam reportedly said that he wouldn't attend as he would "smack them" if he bumped into them. During the Spice Girls' acceptance speech for British Single of the Year, which was given to their debut single Wannabe, rather than Oasis' song Don't Look Back in Anger, Mel had a message for Liam. She said on stage: "I just wanna say, Liam, come and have a go if you think you're hard enough!" Years later though, she dismissed any suggestion of a feud by posing for a photo with Liam and some of her bandmates at the Olympics in 2012, following the Spice Girls' performance. The group were said to have partied together. More recently, as reported by On The Radio, Mel spoke about Liam when she guest hosted BBC Radio 2 's Sounds of the 90s in 2020. She was joined by pal Geri, who teased that she put "those boys" in their place at the BRITs in 1997. Mel is quoted as having said: "Yeah so Liam Gallagher had been bad mouthing us and I told him to come and have a go if he thinks he's hard enough. I'd actually never met him and I got to meet him a few months later and he was like 'c'mon then, scouse' kind of offering me out ... he's gone on to make some great records as well, so yeah, no beef."

Geri reportedly said she would often see Liam in a park, further dismissing the idea of any tension between the bands by saying that they say 'good morning' to each other. Mel joked: "Yeah not so rock and roll anymore, are you now, Liam?" Mel and Geri aren't the only Spice Girls members to have been at an Oasis reunion gig. Last month, their bandmate Mel B, 50, watched the rock band at Heaton Park with her husband Rory McPhee, 37, her eldest child Phoenix Brown, 26, and cousin Christian Cooke, 37, who is a close pal of Rory.
