There's nothing pop culture fans love more than a good old '90s band reunion, and thankfully for everyone, the Spice Girls regularly deliver.
For their latest get-together, four out of five of the girl band members had a dance party to celebrate Geri Halliwell's 50th birthday. Sadly, Melanie Brown—AKA Mel B, AKA Scary Spice—couldn't make it, but David Beckham, who shared a video from the evening, made sure to include a shoutout to her in his caption.
He wrote, "Special celebrating Ginger ... this weekend and even more special to capture this moment of the girls ... A friendship for Life ... @spicegirls @therealgerihalliwell @victoriabeckham @emmaleebunton @melaniecmusic @officialmelb you were missed"
In the video, Halliwell, Victoria Beckham, Emma Bunton and Melanie Chisholm are seen having the time of their lives while dancing to their 1996 hit "Say You'll Be There."
The former soccer star added a "GIRL POWER" gif sticker over it for good measure.
