(CBS) The Spice Girls may be getting ready to spice up our lives once again.

During an interview on the Australian TV show "Sunrise," Melanie Brown dropped a major hint that the '90s girl group is reuniting for Queen Elizabeth II's Diamond Jubilee celebration.

The revelation came while Brown (aka Scary Spice) was asked if the Spice Girls, who toured together in 2007 and 2008, plan to reunite for the London 2012 Olympic Games this summer.

"Well, we do have the Queen's Diamond Jubilee coming up," she responded, quickly adding, "Oh, did I really say that?"

Britain's The Sun reports that she told production crew members off-air, "I am going to be in such strife for saying that. It's all so totally bloody top-secret still."

Festivities for the monarch's Diamond Jubilee, which marks her 60th year on the throne, will culminate in a four-day weekend of celebrations from June 2-5 in London. Scheduled events include a concert televised from Buckingham Palace on June 4 (perhaps where the Spice Girls will perform?) and a flotilla of 1,000 boats on the River Thames the day before.

You can watch Brown's interview below (the part about the Spice Girls reunion begins at about the four-minute mark):
