Mel B and the Spice Girls are set to reunite for a special performance at the opening ceremony of the 2012 Olympics according to London based sources.

According to Britain’s Sunday Mirror, the Spice Girls will not only perform hits but, could very well issue new music.

“They stand for so much in British music history and I can’t think of a better time for them to get back together for another performance,” Simon Fuller tells the Mirror. “The demand for them as a band is as strong as ever. They will not want to be performing hits like Wannabe in their 40s, but it’s amazing how often people talk about another reunion. And I think if they do it, it’s going to be in 2012.”
