Spice Girls singer Mel B shared a 'horrifying' memory from her first pregnancy, when a live TV host asked her to weigh herself on air. The 50-year-old star said such a moment 'would never be allowed in this day and age.' She reflected on the incident while speaking to Page Six at a Revive Collagen event.
Mel B, real name Melanie Brown, was just 23 and early in her Spice Girls rise when the intrusive question hit during a live interview. Pregnant with her eldest daughter Phoenix, now 27, she faced a host who bluntly asked, 'Can I weigh you, how much you weigh?' 👀 Talk about boundaries, or lack thereof back then. Mel shot back: 'I don’t care… how much I weigh. I’ve got a baby growing inside me.' She insists that kind of on-air nonsense wouldn't happen now. 💅
