Victoria posing and ignoring everything is a mood
Sheâs just too POSH đđ»ââïžđđ»ââïž
She was like In a runaway of her own
So long as her microphone was switched off, that's grand.
LOL
Pointing and wiggling is all she can manage.
Me watching this in 2021, how life has changed....
Yh totally
Ikr? Iâm feeling so blue right now. Take care x
Life peaked for me in 2012 đ€Ł

Victoria will always be the original "go girl give us nothing." And we love her for it!
absolutely no vocals or danceđ€Łđđđđ
She have no solo line in Wannabe because she is not present during the Recording
đ€Ł true. Just stand there, we love it!
She's my fabe though,like I always just watch her
Y'all crazy! She's fierce
I can't it's been 10 years since this glorious moment and it STILL fills me with joy and makes me tear up at how epic it was!

Ash Jerseyyy fashionably late
She had a panic attack before the performance.

Epic
The Olympics were just a ploy to get the spice girls back together.
SadisticCupid well it worked.
Thats fine with me.
SadisticCupid They haven't lost their touch thats for sure.
Good.
Heh heh
I love Melanie C so much! She's always performing great and gives her all. Same energy every time
she even gave us "i turn to you" hands
Nails down a chalk board, terrible voice đ€Żâ

@@Rachael121 đđđ
to veryone complaining about Victoria's vocals: she wasn't there to sing, she was there to serve face and she excelled at it. Leave her alone.
Not sure what 'serving face' is, but she was there to sing. She was always the least talented singer, but it's still a music group, so she's expected to sing.
They are a pop group so every member is expected to sing. Stop making excuses
And be posh and she delivered
@@musicislife.2602 Please educate yourself on the history of the Spice Girls and their character personas. This is literally their group dynamic and it was amazing to see.
@@jyeb001 Same to you regarding my above comment.
Posh Spice is never late, nor is she early. She arrives precisely when she means to.
Brilliant đ€Łđ
Like Gandalf from The Lord of the Rings...
A queen is never late. Everyone else is, simply, too early.
who is posh spice?

Whoooop, now I'm crying.
So true
Amen!
Others knew that already.
They represented their country so well. Everytime I watch this performance, I canât help but beam from ear to ear.
Yep. As a diehard lovelive fan, its been 10 years that this legendary Spice Girls song rocked the world.

Their Brunette should have been a native brunette from the Americas called Chile spice and or Hong Kong girl called Ramen Spice. It's fair with England's relationship with India there should also be a coriander spice and an Australian spice called Reef Spice. Go as far as Polynesia with Crab Spice. Total global sisterhood, Arabic Spice for a North African Middle Eastern Girl. There's also lack of African Varieties In British areas.
Re-watching this after almost a decade, brings a big smile on my face. I'm a huge Spice Girls fan from the 90s, and I'll forever treasure this memory of seeing this performace. It was an amazing wrap-up party for the 2012 Olympics.
Have you seen : Viva forever. Luciano Pavarotti and Spice girls. Stunning đââïžđšđ”
me too
@@jackmiller7324 Miller san, here again 2022 after Liella finished their season 2 anime adaptions.
@@lucileb1754 i seen once before.
Me too !! It is always super exciting to watch the Spice Girls !!
People were saying Victoria didn't enjoy this as much as the other four. I beg to differ. They were all just playing their coined personas. Posh was just being posh when she stood there on Wannabe. She looked like she was having the time of her life during Spice Up Your Life.
Victoria always gets labeled as cold and it's so unfair.
+Freya Stuart she is amazing
sander steenwijk agreed!
+jcr89 i love her
Exactly.
It's incredible that the stadium ROARED when they heard the first beats of "Wannabe"... A stadium full of thousands of people from ALL THE WORLD! So far my favorite Olympic Games!
The stadium if full of 30 year women who for an hour started to act like 12 girls.
Jaime Fish that generation of 30 year women proud of their identities. Unlike this generation proud to be trolls
There are maybe a handful of iconic music pieces that get your heart racing at just the first couple of beats..."Wannabe" is one of them.
I wish I'm one of those people!! đđđ
I was there. It was glorious. They got by far the biggest cheer of the night :-)
Victoria posing is EVERYTHING
I watched Tokyo Olympic 2020 but I can't get over the 2012 đ
Same
Me too. Me too.
Kudos to beautiful, cultured Japan for making an effort in a pandemic.
@@samank8628 Aye is a great country is Japan
Same
MEL BâS ENTHUSIASM IS AMAZING TO WATCH
She is a born performer and my favourite spice girl
Lah 1 FR đđœ Like the woman was born to be on stage đ„”
I love my Scary Spice đ
Mel B and Mel C are the best!
I would kill to be Mel C's cab driver!đ
I'm laughing so hard at Victoria posing while the other girls were dancing at 1:35 lmao what a queen
That's her role as Posh Spice duhhh
+mdcb91 It reminded me in the movie when they all came out in army gear and she wore the dress with heels lol
Don't forget @ 4:28 - That Iconic Posh Spice Point
Look at how she stare at ginger spice 1:32 really a queen plus did you notice mel b almost fell
+mdcb91 everyone is dancing having a good time still, so it think they're either USED to it or OVER IT LOL
The absolutely uproarious excitement when the beat to âWannabeâ started just shows how big of a cultural impact this group has made and continues to make â€â€
3:27 Victoria's dress is really perfect in the wind.
Say what you will but damn those girls know how to capture an audience!!!!!
They really do!!
Yessss
â€â€â€â€
anyone notice that something was off about the left shark?
Christin Kolbeck well they would being the only act on that massive stage
1:36 is still my favorite part of the performance. Victoria's pose is Iconic.
My favorite part of the performance is Victoria's dress.
I'm not defending her, but have you hear the lyrics on that precise moment?
was the line when Geri sings "easy V, doesn't come for free", she was doing her posh pose or at least that's what I think.
Oliver Atom i love that dress too
+MaFernanda RodrĂguez-Lee "she's a real lady, and that's for me ahah you'll see. " i love that line
mgawsmestevan yeeeeeeeH it was amazing!! I love her! Is just her!!
This moment is so iconic not only for the olympics but pop culture in general ⊠đ
I hope that whoever didn't send my to the olympics as a kid goes to prison.
And whoâs still watching Beijing or Rioâs closing ceremonies?? đđđ
The performance is literally perfect. All five of these women look phenomenal and perfectly embody their personas. Mel Bâs bodysuit, Victoriaâs and Geriâs dresses - flawless. They served it this night and Iâll always come back to this performance when I need a pick me up. I truly miss them together on stage as a five piece, but they gave us so much in such a short period of time. Hopefully theyâll do another one-off performance like this some time and Victoria will find the desire to participate. She genuinely seems to be enjoying this performance. Itâs rare for a group to have such an impact, but these five knew how to make everyone smile :)
Victoria looks too skinny, almost like she has an eating disorder.
the performace is literally perfect đđ„°đđđ€Łđ€©đâïžđ«âšđđđ»âŁïžđ”
I donât think VB will ever perform again. In an interview she said she was âpetrifiedâ to perform. Victoria also had a panic attack prior to the Olympics performance. She is and will always be my favourite Spice Girl but I think she just found her passion in fashion.
I'm getting used to see Victoria in fashion industry for years she always had that serious look and she hardly smile but seeing her performing cheerfully makes me happy, she looks very cuuuuuute!!!!
If you watch the documentary and her interviews she seemed the most genuinely invested in the group. You can tell she likes to laugh.
Without a doubt she had the best legs
at :43 THAT BEAT....that beat is ALL i had to hear and i literally jumped outta my seat with my popcorn falling to the floor and i sung every word. It was almost like being my 6 year old self in '97 again. Viva Forever the Spice Girls
+19EHF I was in Thailand in that moment watching live broadcasting . I did scream like I'm gonna die and it was 3 am in my country. Ha ha ha. Precious moment ever!!
19EHF the screams were the sound of the people of the world going crazy for the Spice Girls #coolbritannia
This performance does really, really put me in the mood. Whenever I feel down, this totally and completely lifts me up. It was a moment full of energy. A decade later, it just never ages!
Lift Me Up.
@@EvanEvans9 Hold me down.
rewatching this after Spice girls 25th years anniversary. Really timeless songs from these girls. i will never get bored of them
Same here
London had one of the best closing ceremonies.
I can't help but get the chills watching this. No matter what anyone says, the Spice Girls are iconic and always will be.
He Harley Mitchell
Harley Mitchell ,AMENâĄ
âïžâđ»âđŒâđœâđŸâđż Girl Power
Harley Mitchell horrible.....
Harley Mitchell immortal
They were perfect together! No other band can beat this!
Not even Liella can beat Spice Girls, Andressa Vee.
đđđđ
Still watching it in 2023. It still giving me goosebumps!! â€
I wonder what it feels like to be in that environment. Riding on top of a car and millions of people. Wind in your hair. âšâš #Goals
Eludido
I was thinking the same before see your comment!
rethink your idea of goals
CeleBait you're sad
For some people I think that rush of adrenaline could mess them up.
love Victoria... clearly she chose that gorgeous dress cuz she knew it was gonna be flying in the wind.... SLAAAY
looking insecure and demanding to cut out her solo parts? yep, she was only there for the looks.
Janet AHHH NOPE. she sings....see & hear AGAIN baby
M2
I can't believe this was 12 years ago. I remember watching this on tv, and already THEN this was iconic.
We need this again! Petition to have the Spice Girls as the opening act of every worldwide event
To everyone saying Victoria is always serious and out of place: go see the movie.
She was the funniest one because she was serious. That is obviously an act .
Mariana Moreira
Which movie? I have hears it but can't remember the name.
too late what im seeing
Sophie Callissle neĂš Martin Sutherland itâs called spice world
exactly
Thatâs why sheâs posh... people I guess donât have a good sense of humour. They take offence just because she doesnât smile lol. Thatâs why she was my favorite one.
People hate Posh for being Posh? I don't care if they can sing or not. They literally are the best female group ever exist.
Mikee Remastered example please..
sorry but tina turner and the ikettes beg to disagree.....
Tina Turner and the Ikettes may have been better singers, but the fact that Tina was front and center negated the purpose of a girl group. People knew who Tina was but most couldn't name the others. The Spice Girls were all on an equal footing and nobody was replaceable in the band, making them better in the sense of a Girl Group in which they all contribute equally.
no en vogue is
Eunbi Kim mm,
I recognized the Spice Girls just by looking at the pattern on that taxi.
Me 2â€
Best part is when the crowd sang along to "Wannabe"... Spice Girls hadn't performed in years, yet EVERYONE knew the words... that's the impact their music made on the WORLD
Shoutout to whoever thought of using taxis! Y'all made this iconic
@SmithyTV They did
The reason why so many of the performers if not all of them is using cars is they use the radio in the car to enhance the signal of their wireless mic. Very clever solution
@@rockzs74r Oh my, I have never know you could do that. Ingenious
@@themasksamonji8606 I mean it's kinda impossible to broadcast their real voice to the whole stadium with just their microphone. Most of the game ceremomy show solution is to record as the singer perform and and broadcast that to the stadium or even simply just pre record and have the performer lip syncing.
Although London Olympics solutions is complicated they are truly performing lives here
Yoi
and they were singing for real. that Victoria is simply gorgeous...after 4 kids she is still a queen!
They weren't singing...
+hello11197 what do you mean they wernt singing?
When Scary Spice was singing, it was so obvious that she added some personality that wasn't on the track, you could tell that they were singing live. All singers have backup vocals for the parts that they don't do.
+thenikkibella02 _ She never sang, so she was doing her job well.
Watching this for their 30th anniversary today !!! Nostalgia overload !!! thanks girls
Victoria is ICONIC
Victoria's dress looked so awesome flowing in the wind like that. She looked like a fashion super hero that came to save the day!
The girls had to put themselves under a strict regime months before this show: 4 of them on a diet and Victoria eating.
Lol.
Freddie P lmaooo!!
Freddie P đđđ
You are messy for this đ. I love it.
Why is Mel fat though
Coming back after years and I still have tears in my eyes. They meant so much to me when I was growing up as a 90's kid!
the director said âjust singâ but the Spice Girls heard âchange livesâ and went with it
The Spice Girls were a movement, a wonderful feminist catalyst and the perfect icons for me growing up. I can't express how grateful I am to have grown up in the wonderful 90s. This is what life was about for me. The most inspirational women! Deffo teared up watching this imagining how they must have felt in that moment!
Eboni Dixon Too bad feminism is absolutely trash over the years.
Their career was completely orchestrated by men behind the scenes.
@@skipbayless557 loser
At least 90s feminists looked like women.
Skip Bayless Aw fragile masculinity
the stadium almost went down when their song started playing, it gave me chills.
i remember seeing this live and getting goosebumps it was the highlight of the ceremony
Still one of the best performances at an olympic ceremony.
You have low standardsâŠ.đ€Ąđ
Mel C's body and vocals just don't quit. Seeing them live would bee the ultimate Bucket List goal!
B's*
+Natalie B oh whoops sorry!
â€ïž
"Live"
great profile pic Soraya xD
...and that very moment 0:43 the planets aligned, the earth stopped spinning and all humans went out of their minds... EPIC AND UNFORGETTABLE MOMENT!
yesssss
Exactly
I remember I cried when I saw that "spice" sign of Geri's cab đ
Did Posh's car really arrive... fashionably late? đ
I wish I was there đđđ
I love when the cars start driving with them on top its ICONIC. Especially when they do the close up it looks like they're moving way faster because of the background. Spice girls âïžđđ§Ąđ©·đđ
Feeling all the feels even in 2023! Ugh Spice Girls is forever!!!
2020 - Quarantine year: and it's still the best comeback performance ever
Lol it was not their first comeback, they already had a comeback (and a world tour) before the Olympics haha
@@Demigod2NE3 he didn't say it was the first.. only that it was the best comeback performance
I'm sooooo done with this year.
Demigod2NE3 stupid! U need reading comprehension dumb!
The best
why would they have any olympics in a spice girls concert, SMH the disrespect đ
đđđ

đ€Łđ€ŁđšđŠ
Far too much. đđ
đđđđ
the London Olympics really were a fantastic show overall. RIp to Her Majesty.
2015 and the Spice Girls still my jam
their energy and magic will never fade :D
Charles Angs ME TOO!
same here Charles
+Charles Angs and youre such a fox
2017 lol
These ladies have actually gotten better looking with age, I honestly think they look better now than in the mid 90's.
Plastic surgery does wonders for some people. Especially when you aren't looking at a close up
Victoria looks absolutely stunning!
killer rgm only posh and mel b have had work done
3:26 -- I love Sporty's energy here
Spice girls made it cool to be different and kind. Their message was "be the best version of yourself, love yourself and as long as you will be kind and value friendship, you'll never be alone". That's how they grew a generation of women supporting other women, and not by being obssesed with socialmedia fame and money.
Spice Girls for Superbowl halftime show 2019!!!!!
tinskie 17 this would make my year lol
The Spice girls will reunite for a World Cup before they do a Super Bowl
I think only american artists are able to perform at the superbowl. But the girls would be amazing
Ah, Who, U2, etc?
Please!!!!!
To me this wasn't just the highlight of the closing ceremony, it was the highlight of London 2012.
spider23000 Highlight of 2012 period
Mel c my favorie artis
Omg I canât believe it! 10 years ago of this iconic performance and the last time Victoria sang not only as a Spice Girl, as well as a singer! Iconic and living legends!! Time goes by so quickly! The only group to get another iconic performance 15 years after the first! (the Brits of â97)⊠That moment when the first chords of Wannabe play and the crowd gets mad still gives me goosebumps! SPICE GIRLS FOREVER!â€ïžđŹđ§
2016 WILL B 20 YEARS FOR THEM, & I SURE HOPE THEY DO A REUNION TOUR!!!
DiSparrowFilms OH OK!!!
I would love to see a reunion however I feel Mel B would have a bit of work to do and Mel C was the Mel C sporty towards end.
^What do you mean about scary spice?
***** shes so cute, as last times! she had a body-power (i think).......why do you ask that cuestion???
You don't even know their names? I'm out
I freaking LOVE Victoria Beckham. From head to toe and during the whole performance, she was so POSH. How can one woman look so perfect...ALL THE TIME? I'm so happy she has had such great success in the fashion industry. Well deserved.
Lee;O Gone Wild she looks like she having NO fun
She looked miserable up there.
Michael Hart thatâs the whole point of the Posh Spice character.. to serve as a foil to the over the top enthusiasm of the other group members. It was hilarious when she stopped dead in her tracks to pose during the choreography.
I thought the same thing! She looks so powerful!
They weren't my generation, but they still have such grest music. The classics were always better. At least that's how I perceived it to be.
Every so often I have to come back and see this! đ„čđ„č đ©đ©đđ
What a crazy performance singing on top of moving cars! I will always love these girls. They brought so much joy to my otherwise miserable childhood.
yes, its truth!
I think the point of them singing on top of the moving cars is that its meant to mirror their performance in the video for 'Spice Up Your Life' remember their singing on flying hoover boards? I kind of like that idea.
Gabo DuBois Yeah, it just struck me looking back on it now. Makes sense once you think about it.

I was five when Spice World came out and all my older sisters were obsessed with the Spice Girls. Going into school, I had Spice Girls pencils, folders, a lunch box and even Spice wellies! Needless to say, this was the best part of the Olympics for me.
I was a teenage boy when i first heard their songs. I can still remember all the lyrics, Hehe.
Good music never leaves you!
Freya Stuart I was in high school and I ride a bicycle to the town for a few kilometres just to get their cassette when I had enough money.
I HAD A SPICE CAMERA, SPICE WORLD MOVIE, PEPSI COMMERCIAL AND PSONE SPICE GIRL GAME.! BEST TIME EVER. BEST FEVER THE WORLD HAVE SEEN.
Wait, THEY HAD SPICE GIRLS WELLIES???!!! THAT DIDN'T MAKE IT TO AMERICA!!!
Almost 10 years later and I'm still asking what is Vicky thinking posing at 1:38 while the others are singing and dancing? LOL LOL LOL It makes me laugh so hard! Iconic presentation and iconic women!
Because she is posh spice
It's her character as Posh Spice
Mel C & Mel B will always be my â€
Can anyone not love Mel B in this? I think it's impossible!!
I know right!!
Mel B's like "I still got this". She's not lying. #ownedit
I canât believe that this was 10 yrs ago!!! đČđČ Still love them! Miss them a lot!!! â€ïž
Victoria gloriously doin' nothing as always but doin'it so wonderfully! Legend!
Victoria slaying.she looks so good
god I always love the spice girls
true!
Love this performance. Especially with all 5 members. They're not really the Spice Girls without Victoria and Geri. It's magic when they all perform together. Love them
Agree
i love the whole concept of the london cab and the girls standing on it, when it's running, it looks like they're actually riding a space hoverboard haha it looks so cool just like in the music video of spice up your life
I love watching this video, it gives me goosebumps every time and it's so incredible just to see everyone together even if it is 9 years ago :(
Baby spice still looks and behaves so cutely đ

I always want 2ne1 to have reunion stage like that too. If it's happened I wish I could attend to that event.
I was hoping the same gor Wonder Girls last PyeongChang2018 hehe
Hiiiiii 2022 coachella đđđđđđđđąđąđąđąđąâ„ïžâ„ïžâ„ïžâ„ïž
did you see Bomâs current state? she can barely sing
Omg I was just thinking abt 2ne1 too rmb their MAMA performance?? I cried out of excitement
2NE1, who? As it stands, only The Spice Girls matters. âđŒ
I've never been to a concert and I'm 23, I've loved the spice girls since 1996 or 1997 and I am now determined that the Spice Girls will be the first concert I go to or I will never go to a concert in my life.
She has no idea does she haha
am I the only one whose favorite spice girl is Scary Spice â€ïž. she's so sassy and perfect ugh
Best ever Olympic ceremonies for opening and closing. đ€đ€đ€
Now this is how you put on a show! Crowd worrrrkkkk â€â€ Spice Girls !!!!!
MEL B AGES SO WELL
Black usually don't crack
+amy hahahahađđđ
MJ is there a version of this track where we don't hear the announcers talking what is it called ?
Alaska Urie ikr thatâs why she is my favorite
they all do honestly lovely talented ladies.
I LOVE this so much. I like how even now as full grown women in their own careers they still stay true to their characters. I think people who hate on Victoria have to understand her as "Posh Spice". These women defined a generation and Victoria's posing is true to posh spice. There's a reason why people said it was rare for her to smile on stage, but when asked the other spices (members) would say she was a nice loving person.
Yes, I wasn't a Spice Girls fan but I like them, I used to think that Geri was whom broke the group when she left, am I wrong? While Victoria still being loyal till today, even when she doesn't need to perfrorm anymore. Do I miss something?
Biggest selling girlband ever (105 million records)
9 UK #1 singles
Only one of two British girlbands to reach #1 on US Hot 100.
Still hold the record for biggest selling song/album by any girlband 'Wannabe'/'Spice'
Even if you're a fan of the Spice Girls or not no other girl group will have the success / legacy that these girls had/have.
MEL B đđâšđđđ
Love em or hate em, they rocked the stadium that night.
EMMA is such a PRO, every time the camera finds her she's smiling and fully present. Love them
She is my favorite spice girl
It always be Victorias car being âfashionably lateâ that will always seal this performance as one of the best to me. Itâs the small details that matter
Victoria will always be my fave!!
I always loved how Posh's taxi was late... lol
