Jess Glynne has promised that things will “kick off” when she goes on tour with the newly-reunited Spice Girls next year.

The Hold My Hand singer will be supporting Mel B, Mel C, Emma Bunton and Geri Horner on their six-date tour in June 2019.

Sharing the foursome’s epic announcement video, Glynne added: “ARE YOU MAD! I’m Joining @spicegirls ON TOUR!

“Y’all best come through cause this stadium tour is gonna kick OFF!”

The singer also shared the tour dates on her Instagram story, adding that it was a “dream come true”.

Geri Horner, Mel C, Mel B and Emma Bunton broke the news on their newly created social media accounts on Monday, hours after speculation reached fever pitch.

The foursome turned broadcasters as they transformed into their Spice Girl alter egos Baby, Ginger, Sporty and Scary before breaking into an a capella rendition of Spice Up Your Life.

Victoria released a statement in the wake of the news to confirm she would not be “joining my girls” before sending them her “love”.

The Spice Girls last hit the road in 2008 for The Return of the Spice Girls world tour which saw them perform their biggest hits across the US, UK and Europe.

They last performed together at the closing ceremony of the London 2012 Olympic Games, months after launching Spice Girls musical, Viva Forever.

The performance saw them belting out their biggest hits including If You Wanna Be My Lover and Spice Up Your Life atop black taxis.
