Fangirl moment for Emma Stone!

Baby Spice Emma Bunton got to meet one of her famous fans at Wembley this week.

Posting to Instagram ahead of the group’s first show at the stadium, Emma shared a picture of herself with actress Emma Stone – and it appears that the snap provided a huge fangirl moment for the La La Land star.

The Spice Girls singer had earlier revealed, during an interview with Heart, that she was looking forward to meeting the actress at the gig.

She also revealed she’d heard that, as a child, Emma Stone had insisted on dropping her birth name of Emily to be called Emma as she was “such a big Spice Girls fan”.

The actress herself has confirmed that Baby Spice was indeed the inspiration behind her name change.
