Emma Bunton was subjected to snails crawling all over her face as part of an anti-ageing treatment.

The former Spice Girl came face-to-face with the slimy critters on her Heart FM radio show.

The Wannabe singer had been unaware what the mystery treatment would be until it was revealed to be a snail facial live on air.

Theakston teased: “The snail facial is the new anti-ageing process that everyone is talking about.

"Snail mucus contains proteins and antioxidants and some sort of acid that apparently can make your skin feel rejuvenated."

Bunton screamed in fear, telling him: "Just back off! Are you kidding me? Oh my goodness! I don't like it! Please don't go near my mouth.”

The pop star was forced to allow the sails to crawl all over her face for the duration of the next song.

Concluding the experience she declared: "That was honestly one of the most horrible, slimy things.

"Listen, I'll try anything once if it will make me look a bit younger. There's no difference but I just feel a bit disgusting, a bit icky."

The news comes after rumours of a Spice Girls reunion being set to take place later this year.

However, manager Simon Fuller reportedly hinted at trouble, revealing that “four not five” of the women were on board.
