Melanie, 49, opted for a radiant makeup palette and grinned as she held the light handle and a miniature sculpture of the historic skyscraper.

The Liverpudlian added a touch of glamor to her look with a bright red manicure and pedicure.

Earlier in the day, the singer was spotted arriving at the 381-foot building wearing a baby blue blazer over the ensemble.

The outing comes after Mel treated fans to a mini-show earlier this month when she and Emma Bunton took the stage at the Grand Prix Ball.

The pair came together at London’s Hurlingham Club in aid of children’s charity UNICEF.

Mel was supposed to headline the event but surprised fans when Emma, ​​47, appeared as the surprise guest.

The duo looked elated as they represented girl power and sang with beaming smiles and their arms around each other.

It’s been 23 years since the girl group first broke up, but the friends looked closer than ever as they embraced during the performance.

But it’s not just one-off performances where fans are treated.

The iconic ’90s band will perform in a one-off film, with Victoria Beckham returning after the rest of the group signs on.

And while sources claim that while only one minute of the documentary has yet to be filmed, the team behind it is already targeting the top global streaming platforms to reach the group’s international fanbase.

A source told The sun: ‘It is unlikely that you will see this show on the BBC or ITV as the competition is fierce and it would cost too much.

“The global reach is very important because they have millions of fans around the world who are eager to see the fantastic five reunite.

“They also know that their British fans will do everything they can to make sure they see their idols.”

MailOnline has reached out to a representative for The Spice Girls for comment.
