Like pretty much all of us, Blake Lively was a massive Spice Girls wannabe back in the day. In fact, her fandom was so intense that she actually dressed up as Baby Spice while attending a concert back in 1997—a moment the Internet blessed us with a glimpse of this week, when a Twitter user uploaded a picture of herself posing with a very young Lively at the show. As if that adorableness wasn't amazing enough, the real Baby Spice actually commented on the photo, causing Lively to have a very appropriate Spice Girls–related freakout.
On Saturday Twitter user @briamadrid posted a photo of herself with a young girl rocking the full Baby Spice look—the necklace, the pigtails, the gigantic platform shoes—and said she'd just realized the costumed fan was actually Lively. "Found a picture when I was 5 at my first concert. #SpiceGirls and took a picture with a girl dressed up as Baby Spice who I just realized now was @blakelively," she wrote.
