Ahead of the Spice Girls’ upcoming reunion tour, the group’s own Scary Spice, Melanie Brown (a.k.a. Mel B) revealed in an interview that she had slept with bandmate Geri Halliwell (aka Ginger Spice) during the group’s heyday back in the 1990s.
If you’ve been following the Pornhub Insights blog, you already know that Lesbian (NSFW) is the most viewed category of video, so we weren’t surprised when searches for Mel B, Geri Halliwell and even ‘Spice Girls’ all saw massive increases over the last 48 hours.
