Since announcing their UK tour for 2019, The Spice Girls have sold over 600,000 tickets. It’s not surprising that they’ve had to add extra dates due to phenomenal demand to see them back
together. And now the singers have replaced their “girl power” catchphrase with a call to “people power” in light of the divisiveness of Brexit. Speaking on Lorraine, Emma Bunton said:
“It's people power. We're about equality and bringing everyone together." Asked about Brexit and Theresa May, Geri Horner said the Prime Minister does not have an “easy
position”. Ginger Spice added: “Britain, come together whatever it is, come together and sort our solutions out together, that's the most important thing. “We don't have to agree
on politics, it's bigger than that. “You can just support a woman doing the best she can and that's it.” Meanwhile, Ticketmaster have confirmed The Spice Girls 2019 tour demand for
tickets has broken records. At one point, a rep confirmed, over 700,000 people were in the online queue. The girls had announced six dates, which quickly became ten when demand proved to be
exceptional. Andrew Parsons, managing director at Ticketmaster, said according to Metro: “Demand for Spice Girls was off the chart. They have smashed through Ticketmaster UK’s records
becoming the busiest ever sale. “There were millions of people on our site searching for tickets, with a queue at one point of well over 700,000.” He added: “Hundreds of thousands of tickets
were sold to happy fans across the country within minutes. Congratulations to the girls. “From what we saw, they could have played nearly every night for a year.” International tour dates
are yet to be announced, but will no doubt be revealed in the near future.
