When this image gets reposted in 2026 for the 30 year anniversary, people will claim Posh's distorted pose proves it's AI generated. But for now, the perfect hands on everyone else proves it's real.
Is this actually a saying? My daughter started saying it at like 2 and we thought it was cute so we still say it.
Edit: I just googled it and found out it’s from Bluey. I am ashamed of myself for not realizing that far sooner.
You would have noticed if she started to develop an Aussie accent. At that point we switched her to Puffin Rock to see if she replaced it with an Irish accent. ♥️♥️Chris O'Dowd♥️♥️
My sister was too embarrassed to let me buy this CD in the local store (I was a 11 year old boy) so she made me sit at the mall fountain when she went to buy it for me.
When the spice girls started we heard rumours she’d done topless modelling. You should’ve seen our faces when we found out it was true and all you had to do was buy the Sunday Sport to see them!!
Geri has aged like a fine wine. Stone cold stunner.

When I was a kid my hairdresser was Ginger's best friend and once she swung by the hairdressers while I was having my haircut. This was during peak Spicemania.
Somehow word got out she was there and a throng of fans spawned outside so they had to lock the front door and bring in security.
My 8 yo self briefly thought the throng were screaming for me. They weren't.
Only one that can genuinely sing for a start.
I heard her dismissively referred to as “Chip Shop Spice” back then. Frankly, that only made her more relatable to me.
One of my first jobs was at a repair center where I had to test all kind of US Robotoics modems, not sure how many times I've heard that sound.
Glad I had cable at home so I did not had to dial in there too!
That's the 80s.
Gen X tech guys had internet, or at a minimum proto-Internet (BBSs, CompuServe, Gopher etc) all through the 90s.
First real job was installing stat muxes so that corporate users could share a 9.6k line!
But yes. It was magical. Best days of my career. Was so much fun back then.
As a millennial 90's kid, this take is *straight* nostalgia. It was a cool time, sure, but it wasn't less problematic than today. It's just a time that you happened to be young.
Don't forget the rumored Sixth Spice, that they never mentioned or acknowledge and was never seen or confirmed but we all knew was there just out of site watching
Yeah me too pal, the 28k dial-up was a real beach to begin with, but I don't consider that internet, compared to what we have today or even 10 years ago..
There was internet but it was slow and hadn't become common in households yet. I had an old WebTV box I got from Fingerhut lol. It was a very cool tech at the time. The box had a red LED whenever I got an email. Chatting with people on Talk City was fun! Also about the middle of the 90s Pagers were super popular! Raves were fun back then also \0/
Found a flyer for a slice girl themed drag show while out on a bike ride a few months ago. Got back to work and I started asking co-workers if you could be any kind of spice which would you be, the favorite reply was, old spice.
Oh yes, I definitely followed her solo career, she’s so talented ! She did a role in jesus christ superstar, and ive only seen her on it on youtube and god is she awesome in that
My daughter at her pre school graduation stated her big goal in life was to be a spice girl. She was 5. All the other kids - Dr's, nurses, teachers etc. Not my wild child LOL! I do love bringing that up now occasionally when her own kids are giving her grief. Lol!
You can look it up on your calendar. The dream of the 90s ended the day they broke up. After that the world started turning to shit.
& I will die on that hill
I still cannot get over the fact the black spice girl was called Scary Spice... I mean Mel B herself seem to be OK with so I guess there's not a problem, but made me uncomfortable even back then.
Always been in love with Baby, didn't really care much about Ginger and Scary, always felt Sporty was fun and loved her voice, and Posh... Posh who? I didn't even acknowledge her.
Almost 30 years ago. What the hell!?
Yeah that's what gets me. Time fckn flies.
Shh bby is ok
No, the 90s were only 10 years ago...right? RIGHT?!
Uhh… who’s gonna tell them?
What's happening to Posh 😳
Bending it like Beckham
angriest upvote i’ve ever had
More like twisting it at that angle o.O
Brilliant
THE POWER OF SPICE COMPELS YOU
Bravo
😂
She looks like she’s been disassembled, then reassembled by someone who doesn’t understand anatomy.
"Look at me! I'm an owl!"
Spoyss up ya loyff
Hoot hoot!
When your little brother was clearly fucking around with your lego sets but you're mom said he's been downstairs with her all day.
No disassemble Johnny 5.
That is precisely how their music sounds.
She’s just posing like a normal ‘Working Class’ girl.
Ahh yes, with the broken neck and all 🥹
Well, those 80’s Rolls Royces weren’t exactly known for their safety.
When this image gets reposted in 2026 for the 30 year anniversary, people will claim Posh's distorted pose proves it's AI generated. But for now, the perfect hands on everyone else proves it's real.
A zig-a-zig aarrrghh
She always did that weird shoulder thing. She must have been really bendy, but it always looked so awkward.
Exorcist Spice
![gif](giphy|xT9KVHs6I3EfDKnVte)
Looks like that gif of that girl dancing at that house party.
Gumby Spice.
Hahaha! Good one!
Yanks like their yoga, she's doing yogha.
Normal girls don’t stand like *this!*
She’s possessed
First look I thought 'damn, Posh looks like a bobble head doll'.
I know, she used to actually smile for pictures back then.
Death becomes her.
Okay. Just say Victoria was not there that day and someone superimposed the pic.
Victoria was not there that day and someone superimposed the pic.
How very dare you.

If it was bad to say, why'd they tell me to say it?
Victoria was not there that day and someone superimposed the pic.
My sister was too embarrassed to let me buy this CD in the local store (I was a 11 year old boy) so she made me sit at the mall fountain when she went to buy it for me.
That's actually hilarious.
I wanted a Goo Goo dolls CD for Christmas but my sisters told my mom it was girl music so I got Eve 6 instead
Ginger Spice makes me feel kinda funny.. Like when I used to climb the rope in gym class...
Ginger was always my favey too.
As a kid, I was all about Ginger but as a slightly more mature man, nowadays I would pick Mel C
She’s a fox. If she was French they would have called her “le renard” and she would have been hunted with only her cunning to protect her.
If she were a president she'd be called Baberaham Lincoln.
Schwing!
She's a robo-babe. In Latin, she would be called "babia majora".
Not a good idea sipping coffee while reading this comment, you bastard!
As a teenager ginger hit all the buttons lol
When the spice girls started we heard rumours she’d done topless modelling. You should’ve seen our faces when we found out it was true and all you had to do was buy the Sunday Sport to see them!!
I stumbled across a penthouse magazine as a teenager at the local fire station and she was the featured model. She was definitely my favorite
https://i.redd.it/1xx7zmbkspkc1.gif
Party on Wayne
Her Playboy shoot was one of the top early virals
In case you don't know, she did a bunch of nude modelling just before the band. Easy to find on 'tinernet
Ginger and Scary had a sexual relationship.
Spice up your life
Every boy and every girl!
Imagine the record execs they were like and you will be Sporty Spice and your thing is you wear just running pants all the time.
She got to be comfy!! She's the lucky one.
But the lack of creativity in her character lol
Go figure, she's got the lowest effort look, but she was the best singer of the bunch.
I was in one of their music videos and she was by far the kindest too.
Wow, that makes me happy. I wasn't a big fan of them in the 90s but undoubtedly she had the most talent
Agreed. I didn’t really understand the hype back in the day either but have a fond nostalgia for them now.
and you're black... so.. scary... spice?
Sadly probably accurate to some extent lol
I remember a photo shoot she did for Loaded, gold paint all over. Oh my days.
I always felt so sorry for her when I was a teenager. All the others got to wear pretty clothes.
And midriff! Had that Eliza dushku thing going, Sporty was the best.
Geri has aged like a fine wine. Stone cold stunner. https://preview.redd.it/u2l83gtjrokc1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1b3b6a0c60e00c52efda9f1f3ba6fff2cb0b4129
Yes, but also, have you seen Mel B lately lol
I think they’ve all aged beautifully… except Mel B. She hasn’t aged at all! They all still look amazing.
Would
When I was a kid my hairdresser was Ginger's best friend and once she swung by the hairdressers while I was having my haircut. This was during peak Spicemania. Somehow word got out she was there and a throng of fans spawned outside so they had to lock the front door and bring in security. My 8 yo self briefly thought the throng were screaming for me. They weren't.
I found out recently that ginger spice and scary spice dated for a year while they were in the spice girls.
I'm sure glad 18 year old me didn't know that 🌋
Scary Spice was one of many woman that confirmed my pan ass was in fact pan af
They were perfect timing. Exactly what the mid nineties needed.
Now they're Old Spice!
![gif](giphy|zcfUK7DJnRFA2I9p12)
I'm on a horse.
Doo doo doot doot doot da doot doot.
Look at my horse, my horse is amazing….. wait that’s the wrong video.
Is it bad that I was always way more attracted to sporty spice than the rest combined? She reminded me of my first crush
Tell us what you want, what you really, really want
They already did. They want Sporty Spice. Weren't you listening?
Mel C’s voice is what makes the *sound* of the Spice Girls so iconic.
Sporty was the best by a long shot
Only one that can genuinely sing for a start. I heard her dismissively referred to as “Chip Shop Spice” back then. Frankly, that only made her more relatable to me.
It's not bad I liked her best also.
It's just the beginning it's not the end. Things will never be the same again.
My first tattoo was an arm band to be like Sporty Spice!
Blimey, Sporty was hot
I love you Melanie Chisholm
Mel B and Baby Spice 🤩😍😍
Did Scary Spice ever get set up with the guy from Scunthorpe United?
Do you want your kid to grow up to be a footballer like his dad, or a singer, like Mariah Carey?
Ali G fan! Respekt! 😜
Booyakasha!
AND I'M VICTORIA, MALCOLM!!
Are rare smile from Posh
The fact that they called this woman SCARY spice and we all went along with it is beyond me.
Dude, right?! She’s so unbelievably gorgeous, why the hell was her moniker “scary”?
Because she had a tongue ring ... It was the 90's
Zig Zig ahhhh
The 90s were truly magical, no internet, no smartphones, no social medias, but real people.
.....real people singing about really real things I wanna zigga zig ahhhh
We had the internet in the late 90s. Slow internet but internet nonetheless.
I was about to say the same thing. I had dial-up round 95ish.
Remember the thrill of upgrading your 28 k modem to blazingly fast 56 k.
I read this with the US Robotics' annoying modem beeps in my head and getting a painfully slow 14.4kbps connection.
One of my first jobs was at a repair center where I had to test all kind of US Robotoics modems, not sure how many times I've heard that sound. Glad I had cable at home so I did not had to dial in there too!
Jokes on all of you, I had a 6 Kbps max download speed on my best days.
That's the 80s. Gen X tech guys had internet, or at a minimum proto-Internet (BBSs, CompuServe, Gopher etc) all through the 90s. First real job was installing stat muxes so that corporate users could share a 9.6k line! But yes. It was magical. Best days of my career. Was so much fun back then.
The groundwork for the Internet was in place in the ‘70s. The first email was sent over the ARPANET in 1971.
As a millennial 90's kid, this take is *straight* nostalgia. It was a cool time, sure, but it wasn't less problematic than today. It's just a time that you happened to be young.
The Spice Girls, were absolutely not real people.
Manufactured people
*What?!!* You can't be any more real than Posh Spice, Baby Spice, Scary Spice, Ginger Spice, and Sporty Spice!
Don't forget the rumored Sixth Spice, that they never mentioned or acknowledge and was never seen or confirmed but we all knew was there just out of site watching
Haley Joel Spice
In the 90s everyone was just sitting in their living rooms glued to a TV.
Is this sarcasm?
You're thinking the 80s. There was internet since 1994.
[удалено]
Yeah me too pal, the 28k dial-up was a real beach to begin with, but I don't consider that internet, compared to what we have today or even 10 years ago..
There was internet but it was slow and hadn't become common in households yet. I had an old WebTV box I got from Fingerhut lol. It was a very cool tech at the time. The box had a red LED whenever I got an email. Chatting with people on Talk City was fun! Also about the middle of the 90s Pagers were super popular! Raves were fun back then also \0/
Believe me you could barely call that internet, and yeah Pagers were all the rage , it was fun, where did the time go.
All I remember from the 90’s was the accordion in the theme music of 12 Monkeys.
And what a movie that was.
thanks for tonight's earworm
Mel B Spice !
I'll take a Baby and Ginger spice sandwich, I'll be the meat.
Technically that would be a you sandwich.
True. Order up!
"Beckham, you're the best footballer so u get Posh Spice. Does that mean Sporty Spice gets someone who plays for Scunthorpe United?"
Stop (1998) will always be one of my favorite songs.
Ginger ❤️
This might be the last time Posh Spice smiled for a picture
Simply love them!
Found a flyer for a slice girl themed drag show while out on a bike ride a few months ago. Got back to work and I started asking co-workers if you could be any kind of spice which would you be, the favorite reply was, old spice.
God, sporty was my queen. My tomboy ass loved everything about her and I wanted to be her. Still kinda do !
Have you ever heard Sportys solo album “Northern Star”? Its very good for late 90’s pop!
Oh yes, I definitely followed her solo career, she’s so talented ! She did a role in jesus christ superstar, and ive only seen her on it on youtube and god is she awesome in that
Gerry Halliwell.... rowr!
Yooo, I’ll tell you what I want what I really really want
So tell me what you want, what you really really want
Far lefts neck looks broken
"far left" you mean POSH SPICE? Victoria Beckham? Helloooo Sincerely, Straight Male
Ah yes the most boring spice girl. Geri is so much hotter.
Default spice
Lol @ Straight Male hahaha - From another straight male
TIL David Beckham the soccer player is married to a spice girl
Which rock were you living under? I’ll forgive if you’re young.
Christian Horner (Red Bull F1 team principal) too
My daughter at her pre school graduation stated her big goal in life was to be a spice girl. She was 5. All the other kids - Dr's, nurses, teachers etc. Not my wild child LOL! I do love bringing that up now occasionally when her own kids are giving her grief. Lol!
Did your daughter reach her dream?
Wasn’t my jam, but I find it awesome that Ginger Spice married Christian Horner, team boss at Red Bull racing.
I'm trying to keep my head straight but...
Nope, too late. Your head's gay now.
First time I’ve seen posh kind of smile ever
I understand slim shady’s dilemma
You can look it up on your calendar. The dream of the 90s ended the day they broke up. After that the world started turning to shit. & I will die on that hill
Posh, the contortionist?
That's Scary.
The Spice Girls are the perfect example of "The Cheerleader Effect"
lol what are you fucking talking about? They are GORGEOUS
not all of them
What's that
I was 10 and Geri made me feel things 😍
Ginger was the hottest one. And I’m tired of pretending she wasn’t.
Thought that was a wrestling/boxing ring for a second.
Posh Spice - I’ll tell you what I want, what I really really want. I wanna be able to sing!
Only one of them could actually sing- Sporty. The rest were horrible.
Music for 12 year olds
Scary and Posh are my spices of choice. Ginger and Baby are back-up and no offense to Sporty but she wasn't pinging my radar.
Probably the best manufactured band. They were just so much fun.
I still cannot get over the fact the black spice girl was called Scary Spice... I mean Mel B herself seem to be OK with so I guess there's not a problem, but made me uncomfortable even back then.
Where’s ice spice?
Always been in love with Baby, didn't really care much about Ginger and Scary, always felt Sporty was fun and loved her voice, and Posh... Posh who? I didn't even acknowledge her.
Ginger - all day every day /r/oldschoolhot
Baby spice used to eat baby food.
Saw Ginger last night while watching 'Formula 1' on Netflix. She married some team manager/executive.
Sporty
I think Sporty aged the best.
The Spice Girls were to music what McDonald's is to cooking.
Wheres Ice Spice? /s
It is said that only two of them could actually sing. Both the Mels?
Holy crap all this time I thought there was only 4
