The Spice Girls musical playing in London's West End is called Viva Forever!, but its run will last only six months. It was confirmed today that Viva Forever! will close early in June, despite the best promotional efforts of Melanie Brown, Melanie Chisholm, Emma Bunton, Geri Halliwell, and Victoria Beckham. Due to poor ticket sales and worse reviews, backers of the production say they could not make the financials work. In a statement the Girls expressed their own thoughts, saying, "Although Viva Forever won't continue in the West End, we are thrilled that the thousands of people who came to the show had as much fun as we did."

The Spice Girls were back together at this evening's Closing Ceremony in London! The five girls — Victoria Beckham, Melanie Brown, Melanie Chisholm, Geri Halliwell, and Emma Bunton — reunited to sing the hit that made them famous, "Wannabe," as well as "Spice Up Your Life." We caught a glimpse of the Spice Girls rehearsing earlier this week, and they even polished off their moves with one last run-through this morning. For the big show, Victoria wore a dress from British designer Giles Deacon, and Geri even had a bit of Union Jack on her red mini.

It seems Victoria was excited to be back with her old bandmates, as she tweeted a couple picture of their preparations this afternoon. She also shared the quote, "Behind every success is effort, behind every effort is passion, behind every passion is someone with the courage to try." Mel B was also feeling the magnitude of the occasion. She tweeted, "What an amazing day today!" Emma, meanwhile, was in a girl power state of mind. She wrote, "It's all pink tonight, baby!"

Spice Up Your Wardrobe — Spice Girls to Auction Iconic Outfits

As if it wasn't exciting enough seeing all five Spice Girls back together for the first time in years last week, the group have now decided to give fans the chance to buy a piece of classic fashion from the good old days.

As if it wasn't exciting enough seeing all five Spice Girls back together for the first time in years last week, the group have now decided to give fans the chance to buy a piece of classic fashion from the good old days. Victoria Beckham, Geri Halliwell, Emma Bunton, Mel B and Mel C made Union Jack dresses, platform trainers and catsuits the uniform of the '90s and now they're auctioning some of their most famous costumes from the last 16 years to raise funds for Save The Children and Children In Need. A star-studded benefit gala will be held to coincide with the launch of musical Viva Forever in London's West End this December.

Unfortunately Geri's 1997 Brit Awards Union Jack dress won't be up for grabs as it's on display at Las Vegas' Hard Rock Cafe, but Ginger Spice's basque minidresses, Scary Spice's leopard-print all-in-ones, Sporty Spice’s Adidas tracksuits and crop tops, Baby Spice's babydoll shift dresses and Posh Spice’s black leather and PVC dresses are expected to go under the hammer. Victoria first came up with the idea at the end of their 2008 reunion tour, and told the Daily Mirror: "I’ve got all my costumes still. I can’t wait for Harper to grow a little so she can have some. But the rest I’d like to put up for charity, I think it would be a fantastic thing to do." Which piece of Spice Girls fashion history would you most like to own?

Victoria Beckham joined the rest of the Spice Girls in London today to confirm the upcoming musical Viva Forever!, which will feature their music and debut on the West End later this year. The Spice Girls haven't all been pictured together since the end of their reunion tour in 2008 and the location of this afternoon's press conference, the St. Pancras Renaissance London Hotel, has special historical meaning for them since it's where they shot their "Wannabe" music video in 1996. Victoria tweeted her excitement about reuniting with Melanie Brown, Melanie Chisholm, Geri Halliwell, and Emma Bunton.

The website for Viva Forever! also launched today and contains a new description of what fans can expect come Dec. 11, saying, "As one girl follows her dreams, Viva Forever! charts her journey into the world of overnight celebrity and its impact on her mother and the friends she thought she'd have forever. From London to Spain and back again, as the world judges you, it's all about who you really are and who you want to be, whatever the cost."

She teamed up with Novak Djokovic to play a Glam. Set. Match game against Ana Ivanovic and Jay Sean.
