Spice girls convince fans of their friendship

London, Feb 6 (UNI) The Spice Girls tried to convince fans they are as close as ever in a new video--their raunchiest show ever.

The group also apologised for cancelling their world tour midway.

''We have children. Kids need to go back to school and we've always said our families are our priorities so we want to thank all of our fans,'' Daily Mail quoted Victoria Beckham as saying.

Following the announcement to end the tour, the 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 last night.

Since the end of tour announcement, reports have suggested that group tension was the real reason behind the shortened tour and the ensuing blow-out resulted in the girls having a row about controlling attitudes, which was the beginning of the end for the tour.

The reunited five disapointed fans in Australia, China, South Africa and Argentina when they u-turned on a previous promise to perform in the countries, by cutting short their tour.
