Victoria Beckham adds a little spice to family karaoke night.
The fashion designer, once known as Posh Spice, took to the stage in front of friends and family to belt out a familiar tune: the 1997 Spice Girls hit “Stop.” With a group of friends behind her, the former singer, who wore a fitted black dress and matching cardigan, didn’t miss a beat as she performed the lyrics and dance moves from the song’s original music video.
“Karaoke night with the only Posh Spice,” her husband David Beckham, 47, captioned the funny video.
Beckham, 48, chimed in on her Instagram Stories of her rare appearance, sharing the video and writing on the page, “Just for you, David Beckham.” She added a Spice World emoji below.

Beckham’s willingness to perform one of the hits from her Spice Girls days is a rare opportunity. While the rest of the group, which split in 2000, reunited for a tour of the UK and Ireland in 2019, Beckham did not attend the celebrations. The last time she performed with the group was in 2012 when she took the stage at the Closing Ceremony of the London Olympics. The mother-of-four, who is now focused on fashion, has vowed not to relive her pop star.
“I’ll never do it again. Being at the Olympics was an incredible honor. I was so proud of it — proud to be British,” she told Vanity Fair. “It was the perfect time to say, ‘This is great. Thank you everyone, but no more.’ Sometimes you have to know when it’s time to leave the party.”
Her former bandmates aren’t slowing down anytime soon, though. Just last week, Mel B, formerly known as “Scary Spice,” said the group plans to tour Down Under.
“I said it at the end of our 2019 tour, ‘See you next year Australia’ and then COVID hit and all the plans went out the window,” Mel B told the Daily Telegraph, the Chron reported. “We’re definitely planning more shows and Australia is a place we really love so I’m sure we’ll be coming back here.”
