Spice to see you together again ... (l-r) Victoria Beckham, Geri Halliwell, Emma Bunton, Mel C and Mel B
THE Spice Girls stole the show at the closing ceremony of the London Olympics 2012 last night.
Reunited for the first time since 2007, the pop quintet arrived to a rapturous reception in black cabs.
As a swarm of taxis circuited the stadium, five cars made their way to the centre before Victoria Beckham, Mel C, Mel B, Emma Bunton and Geri Halliwell popped out.
They launched into their breakthrough hit Wannabe, but the highlight was their No1 1997 smash Spice Up Your Life.
Two unlikely people who were up on their feet dancing in the stands were PM David Cameron and London Mayor Boris Johnson.
The girls themselves jumped atop their respective cabs before being driven around the venue, entertaining the enthralled audience as they sped by.
The singers then regrouped in the middle for the end of the tune.
Emma looked on particularly good form, winning over a whole new generation of male admirers in a stunning pink dress.
Victoria also wowed in a tight black frock that showed off her legs, and even managed a little smile or two throughout the group’s short routine.
Mel B wore a figure-hugging bodysuit, Geri dazzled in a red number adorned with a Union Jack, while Mel C opted for a bright white baggy jumpsuit.
Following their triumphant return, Geri tweeted: “That was amazing!!!! Thank you all , we love you!!xx”
Victoria posted a backstage snap of the girls huddled together, writing: “We did it!! I love u girls so much!!!!! xxx vb”
It’s been reported last night’s gig will be the last time ever the Spice Girls will perform live as a quintet.
