Congratulations, Toronto!!

Fans vote Toronto onto Spice Girls world tour
The Spice Girls have added a Toronto date to their world tour next year after thousands of fans voted to add Toronto to their schedule.
The newly reunited girl-power group had already scheduled a Dec. 2 concert in Vancouver as part of their tour.
Toronto Spice Girls fans outvoted fans in Rio, Chicago, Paris, Baghdad and Alice Springs in an online contest to get the group to perform in the city.
“We are delighted to be going to Toronto. We have such incredible fans there and we are amazed at such a positive reaction. It’s a great place and we can’t wait to get back there. Well done Toronto,” the Spice Girls said on their website.
Toronto was named as the chosen Spice City on Friday after more than three million fans from around the world voted to get one of the group’s remaining tour dates.
The exact date for the Toronto concert has yet to be confirmed, but it will be in January.
The British group, which had hits such as Wannabe, Say You’ll Be There and 2 Become 1 in the 1990s, announced a reunion tour in June.
All five original members ó Melanie Brown (Scary), Melanie Chisholm (Sporty), Geri Halliwell (Ginger), Emma Bunton (Baby) and Victoria Beckham (Posh) ó will be back on the tour.
