The music icon is 'thrilled' to make a nostalgic return to the resort where her career first started
The Spice Girls singer will make a nostalgic return to the resort where her career first started as a 16-year-old dancer in the Mystique show at Pleasure Beach Resort. Mel, now 49, rose to global fame in the 90s as a member of the Spice Girls in which she was nicknamed Scary Spice.
Last month, she received an honorary doctorate from Leeds Beckett University, which recognised the star for her work with domestic abuse victims and her global influence as “a music icon”. Mel – who is patron of Women’s Aid - was also made an MBE in the 2022 New Year Honours list for her charitable work.
"To me it was the most glamorous place in the world - the Vegas of Britain. I had so much to learn, so fast and it stood me in good stead for everything that came later. I love the people, the place and of course the fish and chips - with plenty of scraps. "It will be a pleasure to welcome her back to the resort where she started out on what was to become a stellar career."
They will be followed by the main event: A two-hour show hosted by Leanne and Joel, presenters of Hits Radio breakfast show. It will open with the Massaoke show performed by Rockstar Weekend, a unique mass participation touring production featuring lyrics from some of the greatest crowd-pleasing hits of all time projected on the giant LED screens.
