In the biggest cultural crossover since Vegemite met avocado toast, Dave Hughes—yes, that Hughesy—just scored an invite to Mel B’s wedding. Australia’s collective reaction? “Wait, what?” Because when we think Spice Girls, we don’t think “radio host with chronic dad energy.” The eternally nasal comedian and TV fixture is apparently on the VIP list for Scary Spice’s London nuptials.

No word yet on whether he’s MCing or just there for the cake, but either way, it’s proof that saying “yes” to every gig since 2002 eventually lands you a table near royalty. Or at least, one Spice Girl and her latest husband. Mel B, who’s managed to go from pop royalty to reality TV stardom and back again, clearly has eclectic taste.

This is a woman who picked Eddie Murphy and The Masked Singer on the same CV. So maybe Hughesy fits? Still, it’s hard not to picture him cracking dad jokes at a $10,000-a-plate dinner while Victoria Beckham quietly clutches her clutch tighter. Why this matters: it doesn’t. But it’s funny as hell.

In a country where most weddings are now postponed due to cost-of-living vibes, seeing Hughesy party with international celebrities is pure chaos energy—and we’re here for it. Latest update: Hughesy’s confirmed he’s going. No word on the outfit, but if he turns up in a Bonds tee, we riot.
