Mel B’s a Perv … Er, So’s Her Hubby!

Posted on June 18th, 2010 at 11:47 am by SBGLA! Staff    

Scary Spice, Mel B has never been once to mince words, which is why she’s one of the funnest people to interview, and last night she did it again on the George Lopez Show.

Lopez was interested in how Mel maintains her frankly, fierce body and asked if (as rumoured) it’s down to five-times-a-day sex seshes with her husband.

Most celebs would back off from such a personal question but our Mel happily replied that it had only been three times that day because she’s been a bit busy before bursting into that trademark cackle.

She then went on to say “Me and my husband, we’re the same age, he is my best friend, and I guess we’re both just perverts with each other.”

Maybe a case of TMI Mel, but in a world of tightly PR-ed celebs who are afraid to say anything in case they cause a scandal, we wouldn’t have you any other way!

Style Network Gets Scary… (Spice)!

Posted on May 21st, 2010 at 4:18 pm by Justin Ball    

Brit reality show fever strikes again!

Mel B (aka Scary Spice) will be the focus of what is being described as a “docu-comedy” reality series developed for the US cable channel Style Network. The skein will follow the so-called “hilarious” lives of Mel, hubby Stephen Belafonte (a movie producer), and her two daughters as the family co-exists in Los Angeles.

The show is scheduled to be shown in the US this September and across the pond at a later date. President of the Style Network Salaam Coleman Smith said: “Mel B is confident, hilarious, and outrageously entertaining.

She added: “We love that Mel has evolved her image and sought new challenges throughout her career while also taking on the ups, downs that come with motherhood and marriage.”

Mel recently attended the premiere of Shrek Forever After with former partner and baby-daddy Eddie Murphy, after their very messy split in 2007. Footage of that premiere is expected to feature in an episode of the as of yet untitled show.

Uhmmm… does Mel’s new affiliation with the Style Network mean that someone thinks she has style? (Rude!) At least no one can deny the girl is entertaining, but I wonder if she has what it takes to carry an entire reality show…

Well, given the stiff competition from other upcoming reality shows like fellow Brit – former wild-child Emma Ridley’s (pictured) outrageous new show Spoiled Rotten, the former Spice Girl will have to prove she’s something worth watching on the telly…

Brit Week Takes Over Tinseltown!

Posted on April 21st, 2010 at 12:17 pm by Sean Borg    

The Union Jack flew proud over Hollywood on Tuesday night, where some of the UK’s biggest names as part of Brit Week 2010 gathered to celebrate.

Three generations of well-known Brit celebrities and socialites (um, me being one of them) attended the invitation-only – champagne launch party at the British Consul General’s Official Residence in Los Angeles.

Guests included, telly host Cat Deeley, Singer – Mel B, Kelly Osbourne and her model fiancé Luke Worrall and veteran actress Helen Mirren, who lauded the British for being “cool and hip” at the event, and complained that her nationality are often cast as the baddies in films.

Mirren said: “I think it’s rather unfortunate that the villain in every movie is always British, we’re such an easy target that they can comfortably make the Brits the villains,”

The event is an annual celebration of British people and business’ contribution to the Californian economy. Despite being called BritWeek, the event lasts for three weeks.

Other stars on the VIP list was Jacqueline Bisset, Dancing with the Stars judge Bruno Tonioli and Lady Victoria Hervey, who, I should say looked remarkably well put together considering her appearance earlier that day when I saw her on the road back to LA, after a weekend of hard partying at Coachella…

Well-done Vicky my dear, it’s amazing what a bit of make-up can do!

Mel B in Full-on PDA!

Posted on April 14th, 2010 at 9:01 am by Helen Whitaker    

Former Spice Girl Mel B lived up to her Scary reputation when she launched full throttle at hubby Stephen Belefonte in the May Fair Hotel bar last night.

The loved-up couple were snogging non-stop as they enjoyed a few drinks (or perhaps even more than a few eh, Mel!).

Stephen even went in for the bum-cupping move at one point and Mel er, ‘seductively’ devoured a strawberry. Get a room guys!

Ah well, at least the old married couple are still hot ‘n’ steamy for each other. Judging by the state of some Hollywood marriages at the moment that can only be a good thing!

Leona’s New Bff: Hairy Spice!

Posted on March 13th, 2010 at 10:20 am by Sean Borg    

Ex-pat Mel B showed up to the event in Vegas last night hand-in-hand with her new bff, X Factor winner, Leona Lewis. And while Mel looked stunning in a curve-hugging electric blue dress, her new hair do was more of a hair don’t!

Looking more like singer Annabella Lwin (pictured below: right) from eighties band Bow Wow Wow, the former Spice Girl had shaved one half of her hair off completely to give her an undercut that left even bosom bud Leona looking quite bemused.

Rihanna rocked a similar look a little while back, but somehow got away with it, maybe because her whole image is slightly more edgy and a little bit punk.

Sorry Mel, I think you need to step away from issues of Dazed and Confused and get a new do, dear!

Matt Goss in Vegas: Life in the ‘Old’ Crooner Yet!

Posted on March 13th, 2010 at 8:44 am by Sean Borg    

Matt Goss kicked off his new show at Caesars Palace on Friday night with support from his A-List VIP friends, Leona Lewis, Natasha Bedingfield & former Spice Girls singer Mel B, who were flown in especially from L.A to join Goss at his debut.

The show is produced by Pussycat Dolls founder Robin Antin and Matt has been rehearsing with his nine-piece band, including a new trumpet player, at Cleopatra’s Barge; he also has his sexy Dirty Virgin dancers and two backup singers.

I was quite surprised to see Matt’s chiseled face staring out at me on Vegas billboards, does this mean he might just make it America?

Crowds turned up hours before to watch the wannabe crooner prepare for his opening night, even some of his die-hard fans from back in the eighties couldn’t resist catching up with the former boyband star. Some had flown in from as far as England and Germany.

Matt said: “I think vocally I can hold my own pretty much. I’m just going to be myself and hopefully connect with the American public organically rather than being too contrived.”

I’m told the locals are hailing Goss the ‘new Sinatra’ (er, steady on people), but Matt did manage to woo the audience proving that the ex-Bros singer still hasn’t lost his touch.

One couldn’t help tapping ones toes to the tunes being belted out. However, I was rather hoping Gossy would burst into song with ‘When Will I Be Famous’, um… Again!

Check out a clip of Matt’s performance below:

Solo Spice Sings Again!

Posted on March 7th, 2010 at 8:23 am by SBGLA! Staff    

CelebXS in the News of the World is reporting that former Spice GirlMelanie Brown is back in the studio recording tracks for her upcoming solo album. The singer also revealed she is writing her own lyrics too, whoopdedoo!

Mel B told my pal Dan Wooton: “I was in the studio last week – I’ve only done a handful of tracks,”

She said: “I’m waiting to find a sound that I’m happy with but I’m writing all my own stuff. I’ve got a lot going on this year but I’m making time to be in the studio. I was in there till five in the morning. I always find at night, when you’ve put the kids to bed, you can get into your zone.”

Mel, who will be at Sir Elton John’s star studded Oscar bash tonight (as will I), added: “To do an album takes time and energy. You can’t have distractions going on.”

Scary also made clear it’s full steam ahead for the Spice Girls musical, currently being written by Mamma Mia mastermind Judy Craymer.

The last time I saw Mel we were hanging out together at Hyde Club in Hollywood, where I was creating a distraction for her so that she could have a sneaky cigarette behind hubby Stephen Belafonte‘s back.

Let’s hope Mel’s finally packed in her ciggy habit as she’ll need to save that voice for song!
