Ranvir Singh was left speechless on Wednesday’s edition of Good Morning Britain after her face was playfully used in a new deepfake video.
The presenter, 43, appeared to be dismayed after watching the clip, in which her likeness was superimposed over all five Spice Girls’ in a segment from their 1996 Say You’ll Be There video.
Chatting to showbiz correspondent Richard Arnold, who appeared on the show remotely from his London home, she was initially shown similar face swaps featuring Brooklyn Beckham and Arnold himself before watching her own.

‘You look lovely!’ she told him. ‘You carry a boob tube off very well!’
However she was less impressed after watching her own – and admitted she didn’t even realize it was her due to the presenter’s features being merged with Mel B, Geri Halliwell, Emma Bunton and Victoria Beckham’s lighter skin tones.
‘I didn’t see me! Was I on it?’ she asked, before adding: ‘That’s not me! What have you done to my skin colour? I’m not white, I don’t know if anyone’s noticed?’
