Mel B has a belated Christmas present for Spice Girls fans — a reunion in 2016 is in the works.

Scary Spice herself confirmed months of rumors about the Spice Girls returning to the stage when she spoke about the group's twentieth anniversary in 2016 during a pre-taped interview for "Alan Carr's New Year's Specstacular."

"To be serious, it is our twentieth anniversary this year, and it would be rude not to celebrate, so hopefully something will be happening pretty soon,'' she said.

The singer and "America's Got Talent" judge did not reveal any more details on the reunion. The group last performed on their 2007-08 reunion tour and also made an appearance in the 2012 Summer Olympics closing ceremony in London, singing a medley of their songs.

There's no word yet on whether all five ladies will reunite in 2016, although several of them hinted at it on Twitter in August. However, Victoria Beckham, a.k.a. Posh Spice, will most likely not be a part of it, according to a report by The Sun. In 2014, when asked about a potential reunion, Beckham said "I won't ever do it again.''
