LONDON: English singer-turned-designer Victoria Beckham says her microphone used to be “turned off” when she performed with the Spice Girls.

The 42-year-old says she wasn’t the best vocalist in the group, so Emma Bunton, Geri Horner, Mel C and Mel B were left to take the lead while she was inaudible — but she thinks she got the “last laugh”, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

“They used to turn it off and just let the others sing. I got the last laugh — and now my mic is well and truly on, finally,” Beckham said at ‘Vogue 100: A Century of Style’ exhibition here on May 5.

Beckham further shared that she was always the “sensible” member of the band and never felt comfortable with their wild antics. “When all the other girls were being fun and spontaneous and jumping on tables, I was always the one checking the table wasn’t going to collapse. I was always the sensible one,” she said.
