In what is perhaps the Brits Awards’ most iconic feud, pop clashed with Brit pop as the Spice Girls and Oasis went head to head.
Ahead of the 1997 ceremony, Liam Gallagher had made his feelings about the beloved girl group very clear.
He told the press he could not attend the Brits as if he bumped into the Spice Girls he would “smack them.”
When the girl band won British Single of the Year, Sporty Spice snapped back.
Mel C took the mic and said: “I just want to say, Liam, come and have a go if you think you’re hard enough!”
