Fans were left reeling after Spice Girl Geri Horner made a very public blunder in regards to her fellow band member, Mel B, as she celebrated her 50th birthday
Fans have slammed Spice Girl Geri Horner for a strange Instagram blunder after wishing Mel B a happy birthday.
Ginger Spice’s account shared a series of throwback photos with Scary Spice intended for a birthday post. However, by mistake, the wrong caption was uploaded alongside the real one. Eagle-eyed fans were quick to point out the mishap made by the pop star, who had meant to send a message to someone else. Mel B turned 50 on Wednesday, May 28.
The photos shared the pair posing for the camera through the years, including many snaps from their 90s Spice Girls days. “Sent images to Pippa and this wording asked her to tweak where needed,” the post read.
The real caption followed: “Happy birthday @officialmelb! Hope you have an amazing day!”
The first message was clearly intended for Halliwell’s rep, Pippa Beng, who potentially forgot to edit the message before she shared. Fans immediately flooded the comments section to roast the pop star, 51, for the mistake.
What a lovely genuine heartfelt message from yourself,” one person wrote.
“It takes 3 people to post a celebrity’s birthday post to her friend. What world am I living in?!” a confused follower asked.
“Confirmation celebs don’t even post legit birthday messages,” another agreed.
“Surely you could have written this yourself Geri and made it more personal especially after everything you and Melanie have been through?” one fan wondered. “Babe you need to sort your social media manager out,” another suggested.
Pippa didn’t escape criticism, either. “One job Pippa. One job,” one person joked in the comments section. “Pippa, I’d tweak it to add a little more sincerity,” another added.
Meanwhile, rumours have been flying regarding a possible Spice Girls reunion – although sadly without Victoria Beckham.
A source told The Sun: “There have been rumours swirling for months, but Geri has always been too busy and had other things on, preventing her from saying yes. Nothing is yet confirmed but Geri and Simon are back in touch with a myriad of exciting ideas.
“Unfortunately Victoria has pretty much ruled herself out, but there is still a world in which she could do some sort of avatar appearance or a special one-off thing.”
The group toured together in 2019 but as a foursome, with Victoria Beckham opting not to participate. Speaking to Rebecca Judd on Apple Music 1, Mel C said: “There has to be something befitting of 30 years since Wannabe.”
The Daily Star has contacted representatives for Geri Horner for comment.
