KEY POINTS:
The Spice Girls performed for the first time in seven years at the Victoria's Secret fashion show in Hollywood's Kodak Theatre last week.
The girls won over critics with their highly polished, energetic and flamboyant performance, but there was just one chink in the armour - they mimed.
And there was a repeat performance of the lip-synching cop-out when the girls appeared on the BBC Children in Need programme in the UK over the weekend.
A spokesman for the band, who were performing via video link said: "The girls were never asked to perform live as their performance was recorded for the TV show. But rest assured, the girls will be fully live for their opening tour date on December 2."

Britney accuses mum of bedding ex
Britney's paranoid delusions are legendary. But the popwreck has excelled herself this time by accusing he mother of sleeping with her ex-hubby, K-Fed.
Yes, you read that right.
Brit has been mouthing off and accusing mummy dearest of getting her freak on with her ex, just so she can get close to her two grandchildren.
reports that Brits made the allegation after yet another bust-up with mum Lynne, and ranted: "I suppose you're sleeping with Kevin now as well?"
So green with envy is Britney, she's barred her mother from gaining access to see her grandkids Sean Preston and Jayden James.
Trailer-trashers Brit and her mum have been at loggerheads for months after the singer accused Lynne of being too controlling and ruining her childhood.
A source close to Britney said: "Britney is fuming that K-Fed has become so close to her mum."
Lynne, there are easier and far less degrading ways of getting access to your grandkids than supposedly jumping into your former son-in-law's Calvin Klein's.
And Britney, remember mum's not really a bitch; she just plays one in your life.
Meanwhile...
TMZ
reports that Britney is no longer allowed to drive around aimlessly with her kids in the back of the car. The website says that the move was sanctioned after a judge was informed by K-Fed's lawyer that footage exists of Brit Brit running a red light last week, with her kids in tow.
HollywoodTV ran into aesthetically challenged pop star Michael Jackson over the weekend, while he indulged in a spot of shopping.
Amazingly, the white gloved popfreak was sans bodyguard and appeared to be unperturbed when he was besieged by a group of adoring fans.
Jacko's only means of protection was a black head scarf which he used to protect his surgically enhanced assets - namely his whiter than white pixie-like nose which could clearly be seen poking through the blackened shroud.
Intriguingly, Jacko had been shopping in a store called 'Moist for Men'. *Insert obvious gag here*
singer was traveling on a British Airways flight from London to Glasgow on Friday for the Scottish leg of her UK tour, when she was collared for smoking in the toilet.
Winehouse, 24, infuriated passengers by locking herself in the john no less than three times, before a ruffled member of the cabin crew finally intervened and announced over the Tannoy:
"Our famous little friend is smoking in the toilet. It's just that the smoke alarm hasn't gone off yet."
Wino was whisked off by burly minders as soon as the plane landed.
Classic film footage of Wino has emerged, which shows the singer fiddling with her beehive for an inordinate amount of time - then proceeding to pull out an item which she appears to sniff.
Cleverly concealed tissue to wipe her fevered brow or something far less wholesome?
reports a source close to Cruise as saying, "Tom knows of Hugh's colourful past and thinks he would be the perfect person to bring it to the big screen.
"He also thinks the role would be a challenge for him, and would remind people of his versatility as an actor. At the moment people are concentrating on his personal life, and his marriage to Katie - but he wants to remind them that he can act too."
A spokesperson for the star has refused to confirm whether he has accepted the part.
They said: "A lot of people consider Tom for a lot of roles."
Sir Paul McCartney is said to be furious with estranged wife Heather Mills' TV rants, so he's decided to punish her - by slashing his divorce offer.
The initial offer was believed to be a whopping 50 million pounds (NZ $135.5 million), but Macca's latest figure is a princely 7 million pounds (NZ $21 million).
The Sun
reports Macca as being determined that Mills be punished for her recent outbursts, and believes her TV appearances have done serious damage to her reputation.
The former Beatle's new offer comes just three weeks after he gave the former alleged porn star a reduced 23 million pounds (NZ $62 million) take it or leave it ultimatum.
But Mills has been busy gathering her own ammunition. She's apparently planning to counter-attack with the planned sale of her controversial tapes which allegedly portray Macca in a seriously bad light.
A source said: "The war between them has just gone to a new level. Paul knows she will go all out to damage his reputation."
Macca: Divorce may be expensive, but freedom is priceless.
