Mel C reveals Mel B exaggerated plans for a Spice Girls reunion as she reveals the truth about 'imminent announcement'
Melanie C has revealed Mel B exaggerated when she teased that there would be a Spice Girls reunion.
The singer, 50, - also known as Sporty Spice - has poured cold water on hopes the band - also featuring Geri Halliwell, Emma Bunton and Victoria Beckham - will get back together.
Scary Spice Mel B, 48, teased last year an announcement involving all five members was 'due imminently'.
But Mel C has now shut rumours down as she told The Sun: 'Mel, I adore her and she has this thing, and it can sometimes get us into hot water. Of course we're always talking, we'd love to do something else.
'I'd love to get back on stage with the girls but everybody wants to do something a little bit different or in a different way, so it's just trying to get everyone on the same page at the same time.

'But Melanie likes to manifest things and she thinks if she says it enough, it will happen. I can't confirm that there is anything happening soon but we're always talking about opportunities.'
Last May, Mel B said former bandmate Victoria would rejoin the Spice Girls for a mystery project.
She claimed there was an exciting announcement in the pipelines for the girl power group but kept tight lipped on the specifics.
She did however promise that 'all five girls' would unite professionally for the first time in 11 years.
The last time the Spice Girls reunited was for an iconic performance at the 2012 London Olympics closing ceremony.
In 2019, the band headed out on a UK stadium tour but fashion designer Victoria, 49, notably chose not to join claiming she was too busy with her clothing brand.
Mel B revealed the five Wannabe hitmakers would be releasing a statement soon about their secret project and were busy currently busy 'perfecting' it.
She gushed that it was something that fans were 'really going to love' but refused to give anymore insight.

The singer said 'My theory is that if I say it enough, it will happen. But actually we are planning on releasing a statement.
'What that is, I can't say right now because we're just finishing off perfecting what we're going to be doing together, all five of us, but it's going to be something that the fans are really going to love.'
When asked how the girls persuaded Posh Spice to re-join, Mel B said it wasn't about convincing her as they have 'kind of always been in contact'.
She added: 'It's not like none of us are speaking together, we've all got a group WhatsApp, but it's just about timing.
'She was really busy doing her fashion line and supporting David with his moves and his career and obviously she's got a bunch of kids so it's just about finding the right time and we've managed to do that so there should be an announcement pretty soon.'
