“We’re proud of what we achieved together. We were just five girls who weren’t all that great individually, but together, we were pretty great! That’s real ‘girl power.’ Be who you are, do what you like and be friends with other girls!“ — Happy 20th Anniversary, Spice Girls!
On Tuesday, a 2016 update on The Spice Girls 1996 hit “Wannabe” started making the rounds, featuring artists from Nigeria, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Canada, the U.K., and America putting forth new ideas for what they really, really want: end violence against girls, quality education for all girls, end child marriage, equal pay for equal work.
