Spice Girls legend Geri Horner has hit back at the haters ahead of the girl band’s epic reunion tour, amid rumours of fighting between the group.
The star said critics could “f**k off”, as she and her girls Emma Bunton, Mel B and Mel C got ready for one of the biggest music comebacks of all time.
Their mega stadium tour will kick off in Dublin, Ireland, on Friday, and until then Geri has confirmed the girls will be “celebrating together” as they prepare to take to the stage for the first time in six years, last performing at the London 2012 Olympics.
But amid claims of fighting between the girls, and even fears for Mel B after it was reported she was “rushed to hospital” last week, Geri has one thing to say to the haters.

Asked what she thought of all the rumours and the critics, she told The Sun Online : “You think, ‘Oh f*** off!’.”
On their planned celebrations before they step out on their huge tour, Geri said: “That’s exactly what we’ll be doing — with all of our imperfections, all our faults, but celebrate the good bits too.
“No one is perfect but it’s all fine. We’re having a blast. It’s an absolute laugh.”
She even addressed claims of any falling outs between the band mates.
Geri told the publication: “Our relationship is really good. We’ve all been really positive, so it’s nice.
“It’s natural. I’m really happy, everyone’s happy.”
In response to critics, the singer confessed she “focuses on what’s important” instead of the negative things the haters have to say.
She explained: “It’s human nature. I try and focus on what’s important now. Let’s enjoy what we have now, what’s real and what’s important.
“It’s all fine so I feel lucky. We keep on pinching ourselves because we’re trying to enjoy the journey.”
