Backstreet Boys NOT Touring With The Spice Girls

A joint World tour? Not gonna happen!

These past few days the World of 90s pop was shaken by rumours of a joint Backstreet Boys and Spice Girls World tour.

Months ago we wrote about a possible collaboration between the two pop supergroups, which was mentioned by the boys themselves during an interview for Spanish TV.

The rumours quickly dissolved and weren't mentioned again. Until yesterday.

Rumour has it that the Spice Girls are planning a reunion as a foursome, and since the sources aren't very reliable, The Sun must have thought: "Oh! Let's make those Backstreet Boys/Spice Girls tour rumours spread now!". And that is exactly what happened. They published the story, and the Internet went into overdrive.

Brian Littrell posted a picture of himself on his Instagram account tonight, with the caption:

"So I think the GIRLS are afraid of the BOYS. That's why they won't take to the stage. #SPICEGIRLS #BSB #BOYSvsGIRLS Just sayin"

While no one actually believes that the Spice Girls would be scared of anything, the fans of both groups can now stop speculating and the press can stop hyping up something that isn't going to happen.

You can also watch this interview with AJ where he mentions the rumours and reveals that there is nothing planned:


Unless this is all a game to drum up publicity before the announcement.
