The Spice Girls haven’t lost their appeal: Tickets to the group’s London reunion show – their first time together in nine years – sold out in 38 seconds, the BBC reports.

More than 1 million people registered for the concert to be played London’s O2 Arena, according to the show’s promoters, who added three more London dates to accommodate the demand. (Top legitimate ticket price is $150, though scalpers in some venues reportedly are selling tickets for $900 each.)

“It was a dramatic moment,” TicketMaster head Chris Edmonds tells the BBC. “The sales went live and there was a huge surge as fans bombarded the lines.”

After much speculation, in June the British girl band announced their reunion plans to do an 11-show world tour.

This tour will mark the first time the entire group will have performed together since 1998, when Geri Halliwel ” quit, citing “differences.” The band also includes “Posh” Beckham, Melanie Brown, Emma Bunton and Melanie Chisholm.

Tickets for a show in LA go on sale today….

Is anyone in the LA area actually going to go to this? I’m just curious.  $900 for a ticket from scalpers!!! WHAT!!?
