Kanye West pulls out of Victoria's Secret show where Spice Girls reunite

Kanye West withdrew from Victoria's Secret's fashion show after his mother's death, with the Spice Girls making their reunion debut performance there instead.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, Kanye West pulled out of a performance at an annual fashion show staged by US lingerie retailer Victoria's Secret last night. The hip hopper pulled out of the show following his mother's sudden death last weekend.

Black Eyed Pea Will.I.Am filled in for West at the event which also featured the debut reunion performance from the Spice Girls, who have a sponsorship deal with the fashion chain in the US. They performed their 1998 hit 'Stop' plus new single 'Headlines'.

Commenting on the Spice Girls' appearance at the Fashion Show, 'American Idol' presenter Ryan Seacrest told reporters: "I'm in love with Victoria Beckham, which is probably an issue for David. They could have stood there and done nothing and I'd have been happy". Yeah, I find I'm always happier when the Spice Girls do nothing. Oh, only joking...
