London, Oct 2 : Spice Girls are still a rage, for the tickets to their London reunion concert sold out in an amazing 38 seconds.
The 20,000 seats for the O2 arena show, to be held on 15 December were released on Oct 1, and were snapped up in less than a minute.
The overwhelming demand for the sole London show forced the organizers to add three more London dates to the tour - December 16 and 18 and January 2.
The five original Spice Girls, Scary, Sporty, Ginger, Posh and Baby, will begin their worldwide reunion tour on December 2 in Vancouver, their first since Geri Halliwell quit in May 1998.
"It's been fantastic to see how strong girl power still is in 2007, and we want to thank you for your support,” the Daily Mail quoted the Spice Girls, as stating on their website.
The December 15 concert is the fastest-selling show at The O2 . A computer selected 20,000 of the million applications at random and emailed the fans.
In the US, Spice Girls tickets are selling for as much as 2,000 dollars on eBay. (With inputs from ANI)
