Mel B Apologises for Spice Girls Tour Cancellation
Whilst swanning around the Riviera at this year's 48th Monte Carlo Festival, Take 40 Australia - there to interview cast members from hit TV series Desperate Housewives, Lost, and Ugly Betty - ran into a not-so-scary sight - SCARY SPICE, aka. Melanie Brown!
Interestingly enough, despite being a huge star of the US version of 'Dancing With The Stars' earlier this year, and starring in an upcoming TV talent show with Joey Fatone (from N'Sync), Mel B wasn't there to promote her TV appearances, she was in fact there in her new role as an entertainment correspondent for US TV show 'Access Hollywood'!
Mel B was interviewing celebrities like Kim Kardashian, and partying with Prince Albert of Monaco in her new role as reporter, but Take 40 pulled her aside exclusively and flipped the script turning the interviewer, into the interviewee.
Whilst she had a lot to say about her upcoming acting projects, TV projects, fashion range, new album, new husband, new daughter, there was only one thing we wanted to know.... WHY DIDN'T THE SPICE GIRLS TOUR DOWN UNDER IN AUSTRALIA EARLIER THIS YEAR, AS PREVIOUSLY REPORTED?!?!?!?
"Can I just say that our tour started off with one date booked, and then things just escalated and snowballed," she explained. "We never actually set dates - it kinda just rollercoastered. Tickets should never have even gone on sale in some places - I don't know whether they did in Australia or not, but we didn't even know that."
"We should've come to Australia - that's a shame that we didn't," she concedes, before adding, "I will - I'll come and visit you guys when I release my next album."
Not quite the same Mel, but we'll think about forgiving you! Brown is currently recording her second solo album in the States, and hopes the project will be released sometime later this year.
