Spice Girls Lip-Synced on Their First Comeback Performance

The Spice Girls made their live comeback at the Victoria's Secret fashion show last night (15.11.07). The reunited girl group - Victoria Adams, Melanie Brown, Geri Halliwell, Emma Bunton and Melanie C - stepped on stage as a five-piece for the first time in nine years to perform two songs at the annual event in Los Angeles.

The girls, dressed in tight military-style outfits, debuted new song 'Headlines (Friendship Never Ends)' and classic hit 'Stop' in front of a star-studded audience at Hollywood's Kodak Theatre. However, the group - who sang live at every concert of their 1998 world tour - lip-synced the two songs.

Geri - who quit the band in 1998 - said the appearance had been a "good warm-up" for their forthcoming world tour, which stars in Vancouver, Canada, on December 2. She also promised fans the new concerts would be "full of drama", while Emma revealed the set list will include "all our old classics". She added: "I'm having the best time."

Earlier in the evening, Black Eyed Peas star will.i.am performed in place of hip-hop star Kanye West, who withdrew from the event following the death of his mother. Seal and wife Heidi Klum, a Victoria's Secret model, also performed a duet together.
