The Spice Girls have put on their raunchiest show ever in a bid to convince fans they are as close as ever.

On Friday, the reunited five-piece disapointed fans in Australia, China, South Africa and Argentina when they u-turned on a previous promise to perform in the countries.

In a statement, the group blamed "personal and family commitments" for the reason behind their decision to cut their 'world tour' short.

Following the announcement, the Spice Girls returned to Canada for a two-night stint at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto, where they performed their raunchy display.

In a bid to quell rumours the group had fallen out with each other, they went to extreme lengths to show their closeness on stage in Toronto last night.

Scary Spice Melanie Brown roused the audience when she groped Victoria Beckham's surgically-enhanced breasts.

Despite four of the five girls being mothers, they showed they could still be as sexy as ever when they strutted on stage in tight PVC outfits.

The five-piece smouldered as they sauntered around on stage leading hunky male dancers around on chains.

Keeping to her schoolgirl style, Baby Spice Emma Bunton wore a laced-up PVC mini-dress, while Sporty Spice Melanie Chisholm showed her raunchy side in a full-length leather catsuit.

Since the end of tour announcement, reports have suggested the bandmembers were struggling to agree on tour and the group tension was the real reason behind the shortened tour.

Mel B was said to be missing her new husband Stephen Belafonte and two children Phoenix Chi and Angel Iris and is hoping to capitilise on her rejuvenated fame Stateside following her appearance on Dancing with the Stars last year.

Melanie C, who was always the most relunctant to take part in a Spice Girls reunion, is also reported to have had enough of the tour.

Beckham has blamed herself for the split, claiming "I'm not in the music industry any more. I'm in the fashion industry".

Sources claim Beckham angered her bandmates when she suggested they all get matching tattoos to mark their comeback.

Posh had booked hubby David's regular tattooist Louis Molloy on 24 January at the Middleton Studio for all five to have their "bonding" etchings.

But only Vic turned up, and was livid at the other girls for not showing up.

The ensuing blow-out resulted in the girls having an unholy row about controlling attitudes, which was the beginning of the end for the tour.

A source said: "Victoria was very excited about the girls getting their tattoos, and thought it was an excellent gesture to bond them together.

"She had booked David's tattooist, and initially, all the girls were excited about it."
