Note
  1. ↑ Certain award groups do not simply award one winner. They acknowledge several different recipients, have runners-up, and have third place. Since this is a specific recognition and is different from losing an award, runner-up mentions are considered wins in this award tally. For simplification and to avoid errors, each award in this list has been presumed to have had a prior nomination.

The Spice Girls are an English girl group formed in 1994. The group comprises Victoria Beckham ("Posh Spice"), Melanie Brown/Mel B ("Scary Spice"), Emma Bunton ("Baby Spice"), Melanie Chisholm/Mel C ("Sporty Spice") and Geri Halliwell ("Ginger Spice"). [1]

The Spice Girls were signed to Virgin Records and released their debut single "Wannabe" in 1996; it hit #1 in 37 countries [2] [3] and charted in the Top 10 of several other territories, and commenced their global success. Their debut album Spice was released in 1996 as well, and sold more than 23 million copies worldwide. The four singles released from the album all peaked at #1 in the UK, and within the Top 5/Top 10 of many other countries. [4] Their second album, Spiceworld , was released in the fall of 1997 and was also a commercial success, selling over 14 million copies worldwide. The album and its lead single, "Spice Up Your Life", peaked at #1 in the UK, as did two other singles from the album, "Too Much" and "Viva Forever". The fourth single from the album, "Stop!", peaked at #2 in the UK. [5] The group released their third and final studio album Forever in November 2000, which was also their first and only album without Halliwell, who left for personal reasons in May of 1998. The lead single from the album, "Goodbye", went to #1 in the UK, and was their third consecutive "Christmas #1". After a hiatus of seven years, the group reunited in 2007 for a concert tour and released a greatest hits album. [1]

Over their careers, the Spice Girls have received a number of notable awards including five Brit Awards, three American Music Awards, four Billboard Music Awards, three MTV Europe Music Awards, one MTV Video Music Award and three World Music Awards. The British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors (BASCA) have also recognised the group for their songwriting achievements with two Ivor Novello Awards, while the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) named them Songwriters of the Year at the 1997 ASCAP London Awards. In 2000, they received the Brit Award for Outstanding Contribution to Music, a Lifetime Achievement award whose previous winners include Elton John, the Beatles and Queen. [6]
