Spice Girls’ Mel C Joins Coldplay’s Chris Martin for ‘2 Become 1′ Duet

“2 Become 1” is a ballad from the group’s chart-topping debut album, Spice, released in 1996. The single peaked at No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart in 1997, while the album went on to hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart.

For those wondering how the seemingly impromptu collab came about, Mel C was thrilled to share the story.

“What a fantastic, unexpected night!” she tweeted on Sunday. “I gave Chris a text to tell him we would be coming to his @imlistening @audacy #wecansurvive gig, at the @HollywoodBowl and the next thing I know, he’s on FaceTime while I’m in the nail salon, asking me to come up on stage with him!”

“Well, what could I say to an offer like that! Thank you @coldplay for such an amazing night and experience. Hopefully I can get back to @HollywoodBowl soon with three certain ladies for company!” Mel C wrote.

A portion of the proceeds from the show will go to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.
