An unlikely friendship revealed in a surprising location.

Geri Halliwell Horner shared a touching clip with acting legend Meryl Streep to mark her birthday. Even more special, posing cheek-to-cheek, the Oscar-winner sang her own rendition of Happy Birthday to the Spice Girl in the video.

The singer was celebrating her 54th birthday alongside the The Devil Wears Prada icon, 77 as she joined the star on the set of TV series Only Murders In The Building.

Geri, who has done some acting in the past, was a surprise addition to the cast for the new season of the popular series. It has not been confirmed how extensive her role is.

She joins stars Martin Short, Steve Martin and Selena Gomez in Season 6 of the show. This time round the cast also includes iconic British film and TV actors, including David Tennant, Jodie Whittaker, Jim Broadbent, Martin Freeman and Olivia Colman.

Geri gushed in the clip, shared on social media, spending time with Meryl was the “best birthday present ever.”

“Spending my birthday with the extraordinary Meryl Streep was a moment I’ll always treasure,” she wrote.

Geri recently joined with the rest of her Spice pals – minus Victoria Beckham – at the wedding of Melanie Chisholm, also known as Sporty Spice.

This year, Only Murders in the Building received two Emmy nominations, including Outstanding Comedy Series. Martin Short was also nominated for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series.
