Geri Halliwell's Instagram Posted The Wrong Thing For Mel B's Birthday, In Case You Had Any Doubt How Celebs' Social Media Are Run

" One Book of Job . "

Indeedy, today is Mel B’s 49th birthday! Woohoo! And, if you go to Geri’s Instagram page right now, you’ll see athrowbackpost of the two with the caption, “Happy birthday @officialmelb! Hope you have an amazing day!”

And I’m sure NOTHING else is suspicious there!

Yes, the original version of Geri’s heartfelt birthday post read, “Sent images to Pippa and this wording asked her to tweak where needed Happy birthday @officialmelb ! Hope you have an amazing day!”

Thankfully, only some people noticed:

Pippa is the name of Geri’s publicist, though it’s not clear who was behind the errant copy-and-paste.

Things have historically been…a little tensebetween the twoSpice Girls(see: MelcallingGeri “really fucking annoying” in 2022, the dispute over whether or not they slept together) so I’m sure this won’t add anything at all there.

Hey, I once accidentally pasted a link to theNew YorkTimes' Connections game instead of the story I was working on in a Slack with almost a hundred people. Tooootally the same thing.

Instagram comments for Pippa: "Sending love to Pippa on this day, she might need a wine glass or two." "One job Pippa. One job." "Friendship never ends… unless Pippa gets involved."
