Asked what parts of her bandmates she would like to have for herself, Geri said she would like Victoria's legs and Mel C's 'physicality', referring to her love of fitness.
The Spice Girls tour is still set to go ahead despite Geri, 46, reportedly being furious with Mel, 43, after claiming they slept together.
An insider told The Sun that Geri is upset over what her band mate said during her Piers Morgan: Life Stories interview and it has 'done damage' to their friendship.
While recording an episode of Piers Morgan’s Life Stories, Mel told the host that the passionate encounter ‘just happened’.

She said of Geri, who married Formula 1 racing team boss Christian Horner in 2015: ‘She is going to hate me for this because she is all posh with her country house and her husband, but it’s a fact.
'But it wasn’t a thing, it just happened and we just giggled at it and that was it.’
When pressed for more details about their relationship, Mel, said: ‘Oh stop it, you pervert’, before eventually asserting they did sleep together.
In the audience, their bandmate Mel C – whose full name is Melanie Chisholm – said: ‘This is all new to me.’

Mel B added: ‘I have said it now. All done. She is going to kill me.’
An insider told the publication that Mel and Geri are 'divided' after her comments, which is made worse by both of them viewing themselves as the 'boss' of the group.
They said: 'The gigs will go ahead whatever happens, but those two couldn’t be more divided and both see themselves as the boss. Everyone involved is braced for some epic arguments once they’re back together.'
MailOnline has contacted a representative for the Spice Girls for comment.

The pair were thought to have had a rocky relationship after Geri unexpectedly quit the band in 1998, with Mel previously saying in a TV interview: 'We fought like cats and dogs. '
The Spice Girls tour is reportedly set to earn the bandmates £2.2million each.
Victoria Beckham is the only one not joining the reunion, which will end at Wembley Stadium in June – 21 years after they performed at the venue as part of their Spice World tour.
