A dream came true as self-confessed Spice Girls super-fan Emma Stone finally met the group ahead of their sold out show at London’s Wembley Stadium.
Ahead of their sold-out show at Wembley Stadium in London, Stone and HAIM met Sporty, Baby, Scary and Ginger as part of a contest they held with the Omaze campaign where one lucky person and their guest got a meet-and-greet with the Spice Girls.
The Hollywood actress looked uncharacteristically star-struck as she posed for a photo with ‘Baby Spice’ Emma Bunton, shortly before she took to the stage – she later performed a La La Land tribute to the star.
The Spice Girl later documented her meeting with her A-list fan by sharing two images of the encounter on Instagram with the accompanying caption: ‘When Emma met Emma.‘
Earlier that day Emma told Heart Breakfast she was excited to meet actress namesake Emma at the band’s London show.
She said: ‘Do you know who we’ve got coming? Oh, I hope I’m allowed to say this but Emma Stone is coming tonight and I’ve never met her and we’re going to be meeting her so I’m really excited.‘
Host Jamie Theakston shared her excitement, and explained that despite the La La Land star being a ‘massive’ Hollywood star, ‘all she talks about is dressing up as Baby Spice when she was young.’
The Spice Up Your Life songstress replied: ‘Her name was Emily but she wanted it to be Emma because she was such a Spice Girl Fan.
‘It’s amazing. It’s quite nice. I’m excited!‘
