"If it wasn’t for her, I would not have been out there": Victoria reveals Emma helped her through a serious panic attack before Olympics show
Terrified about singing live four years after last performing with the group, she had to be comforted by Emma Bunton
The Olympic closing ceremony saw the Spice Girls triumphantly steal the show in front of a global TV audience of over one billion viewers.
No pressure, then.
But despite being an international superstar herself, Victoria Beckham suffered a serious panic attack minutes before taking to the stage, I can reveal.
Terrified about singing live four years after last performing with the group, the 38-year-old designer had to be comforted by Emma Bunton, aka Baby Spice.
After a rallying chat and a big hug, Posh was set to go – and nailed her performance alongside Emma, Geri Halliwell and Melanies Chisholm and Brown.
The fashionista and mum-of-four later gave an exclusive interview with the rest of the girls to Emma, for her Heart FM radio show.
In it, she praised Baby’s calming influence.
Chatting backstage, minutes before the gang left to party at George Michael’s house, Geri said: “I have to say to everyone listening, your DJ Emma looked like a goddess.”
To which Victoria replied: “And you know the other thing? I was in the taxi with Emma before we started and I nearly just got out of the car.
"I was so nervous. I felt sick and Emma was so amazing. Honestly, that’s how you know a real friend. If it wasn’t for her, I would not have been out there.”
Last night, a backstage source added: “Victoria played down the incident but she basically had a full-on panic attack and was in a complete state.
“Emma was brilliant and gave her a big hug, saying, ‘It’s all gonna be OK, you look amazing’.”
After the set, the highlight of the extravaganza, Mel B confirmed that she would be keen to once again tour with the band.
She gushed: “Can I just say, I love my girls.
“I loved them before but I love them even more now. I had so much fun.
“None of us fell over! Why don’t we set up a petition and get us back on tour?”
Not ruling it out, Victoria added: “We’ve got some amazing fans out there who have been with us from the start. This is for all of you guys.”
Watch this space.
* Tune in to Emma’s show this afternoon at 4pm on Heart FM.

Yes, Emma not wanting to let the RADA face cow ruin her big night, true friend that is. But yes, that's lovely to hear Victoria say that.
Reflected onto the wet pavement, can you see what I see?
