In a flashback photo, a 61-year-old music legend dressed as Victoria Beckham and performed as the Spice Girls with his three-time Grammy Award-winning band.
The singer, who was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2012, was shown with his two bandmates performing to the Spice Girls.
The rocker and his band, which started in the 1980s, scored their first number-one single, Give It Away, in 1999.
In 2022, they earned a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Can you determine who is pictured?
Did you guess correctly? Anthony Kiedis, the founding member and main vocalist of the rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers.
He was accompanied by bandmates Flea (61), actual name Michael Peter Balzary, who morphed into Baby Spice (Emma Bunton), and John Frusciante, 54, as Sporty Spice (Mel C).
Back in 2017, the singer went above and above for his buddies by dressing up as Posh Spice for Flea’s daughter Clara’s tenth birthday party.
Flea is the father of Clara, 35, with ex-wife Loesha Zeviar, as well as Sunny Bebop, 18, with Frankie Rayder.
In December 2022, he had his third kid with his now-wife, Melody Ehsani.
Anthony dressed in a black strapless crop top and miniskirt, and completed Victoria’s classic look with a black short bobbed wig.
Flea dressed up as Emma Bunton in a pink little dress and blonde wig, while John copied Mel C’s look with a sports tracksuit.
Flea shared the vintage photo on Instagram, writing: ‘When we did a Spice Girls performance for my daughter Clara’s tenth birthday.
‘John was athletic, Anthony was aristocratic, I was 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢, and the wonderful Chris Warren was Scary Spice, but he was edited out of this shot; believe me, he looked stunning. We took our maneuvers seriously and gave the youngsters our best performance!
The throwback snap comes as it was revealed earlier this year that an Anthony Kiedis biopic is in the works at Universal Pictures.

The movie production business has optioned the rights to Kiedis’ 2004 book Scar Tissue, and he will produce the feature picture.
According to Deadline, the movie is now in early production and will be produced by Brian Grazer and Guy Oseary.
The movie production business has optioned the rights to the frontman’s 2004 book Scar Tissue. Kiedis will produce the feature film.
Scar Tissue debuted at number one on the New York Times bestseller list in 2004.
In his popular book, Kiedis described his unique connection with his father, who was addicted to narcotics and shared them with his son.
The book also discusses the death of Hillel Slovak, the founding guitarist of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, who died of a heroin overdose at 26.
However, Kiedis has previously claimed that he had misgivings about writing the memoir, which once caused a schism with his bandmate Flea when he disclosed in the book that he had slept with his friend’s sister.
In 2016, Kiedis told The Sun that he regretted the book for a while since it caused considerable anguish. But then I noticed the long-term beneficial reverberation. People were reading it in hospitals, jails, and schools, and it had a beneficial impact.
‘I realized that the whole point of writing that book wasn’t for me, but to show that somebody can go all the way down and come all the way back and have a productive, successful happy interesting life.
‘And so whatever shame, pain or difficulty or discomfort I went through, then it was worth it because I get so many people coming up to me saying their kids had read it and got their act together because of it.’
Kiedis has fronted the multi platinum selling band since they formed in the late 1980s, frequently aappearing shirtless on stage during concerts.

He was born in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and raised in Los Angeles from the age of 12.
He devoted a significant portion of his musical career penning lyrics about his city experiences.
In 1982, Kiedis co-founded Red Hot Chili Peppers alongside guitarist Slovak, bassist Flea (Michael Balzary), and drummer Jack Irons.
The group has sold over 120 million records worldwide, achieved nine Top 10 albums, received six Grammys, and was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2012.
In his memoir, Kiedis shared that he mistakenly used heroin for the first time at 14, mistaking it for cocaine.
He was in a relationship with Heather Christie from 2004 till 2008. They have one son, 16-year-old Everly Bear Kiedis.
