The Spice Girls ‘will make over £2.2m each’ from six-day reunion tour
However, it could have been much more if Victoria joined the line-up
THE Spice Girls are set to make a staggering £2.2million each from their six-day reunion tour.
The ’90s girl group confirmed their reunion and UK stadium tour earlier this week – much to the delight of their fans.
Now have reported that Mel B, Melanie C, Geri Horner, and Emma Bunton are expected to rake in at least £418k each per show.
This comes to around £2.2million for less than a week’s work.
In addition to that lump sum, the girls could make even more money if the tour sells out and a second, international leg is announced.
In this instance, the stars are expected to make around £5million each, according to the publication.
Although the four returning Spice Girls are certainly going to make a huge profit from the tour, early reports have said that the band would have made even more if Victoria Beckham agreed to rejoin the line-up.
TMZ have revealed that each singer would have taken home around £10million if they returned as a five-piece.
After the Spice Girls confirmed their exciting reunion tour on Monday, Victoria sent her former bandmates a sweet message of support.
Sharing the new four-piece photo of the group to her Instagram account, the mother of four wrote: “Being in the Spice Girls was a hugely important part of my life and I wish my girls so much love and fun as they go back on tour.
“I know they will put on an amazing show and the fantastic fans past and present are going to have a wonderful time!”
The star, formerly known as Posh Spice, rejected the opportunity to reunite with her ex-bandmates, having made a name for herself in the fashion industry since finding fame as a pop star.
Victoria intends on focusing on her designer fashion brand, as well as being mum to her four children – Brooklyn, 19, Romeo, 16, Cruz, 13, and and seven-year-old Harper.
Despite not joining the tour, it was previously reported that Victoria will still make millions off the back of it.
Victoria, 44, owns a significant cut of the Spice Girls’ image and music rights – meaning that she doesn’t need to step foot on the stage in order to reap the benefits of the reunion.
It is thought that the brunette beauty owns an equal stake in the band’s brand, entitling her to a fair percentage of the profits.
The Spice Girls first shot to fame as a fivesome in 1994, continuing as a four piece between 1998 and 2000 after Geri quit to go solo.
The group then reunited in 2008 before performing together at the closing ceremony of the 2012 London Olympics.
Earlier this year, rumours of another reunion heated up when all five women posed for a photo together during a meeting with their old manager, Simon Fuller, at Geri’s North London home.
