Mel C's "absolute dream" is to headline Glastonbury with the Spice Girls

Speaking to Chris Moyles on Radio X, she said: "Well, it would be quite nice to do it on my own, wouldn't it? I might have some new music out. Well, I will have some new music out next year."

Asked if she wants to "do it with them other girls you used to be in a band with?", Mel replied: "Do you know what? I think there's room for both.

"The absolute ultimate would be to do it with the Spice Girls. There's nothing I would like more.

"But you know, while they're still making their minds up... I'll keep practising."

The 50-year-old singer laughly suggested people should "manifest" the group appearing in the hope it becomes such a strong rumour, organisers will feel compelled to book the 'Stop' singers.

She said: "Shall we start the rumour already? It doesn't get rumoured every year! It's something you never hear! Let's all manifest!"

This isn't the first time Mel has expressed a desire to play Glastonbury with Mel B, Geri Horner, Emma Bunton and Victoria Beckham.

She said: "Glastonbury is so magical, and it's the ultimate British festival without a doubt.

"One day a Spice Girls performance there would be a great thing. We would love to grace that stage."

Asked if another reunion would include Victoria, she added: "That would be the ultimate dream. The door is always open for Victoria, we would love to see her back. We keep our fingers crossed."
