Mel B used to be known as Scary Spice for her tight tops and constant shouting but now Mel B has given birth to a baby girl, we get the feeling she'll be known as Scary Spice for the way she'll chase Eddie Murphy about demanding his child support.
Just after midnight today, Mel B gave birth to her second baby – an as yet unnamed daughter – in LA. Normally the birth of a baby to a woman who hasn't really been famous for a decade wouldn't be all that newsworthy, but we'll make an exception in this case since Mel B's baby is about to be subjected to all sorts of freaky DNA tests to see if she belongs to Mel B and former fiance Eddie Murphy or Mel B and some dude that knocked her up on a beach just before she pretended that Eddie Murphy got her pregnant.
Oh thank God for that. What with the Anna Nicole Smith paternity saga almost over, we were starting to worry that we wouldn't be able to tell you about any more DNA paternity tests, but now that Mel B has had her baby we can really get the slightly pitiful DNA test show on the road again. First the details of the birth, courtesy of Reuters:
Former Spice Girl Melanie Brown, has given birth to a girl in a California hospital, her publicist said on Tuesday. The girl, Brown's second child, was born at 12:11 a.m. local time on Monday at St John's Hospital in Santa Monica. "The baby is completely healthy with a good head of hair. No name has been decided on yet, and she is purely known as Baby Brown," the publicist added in a statement.
Knowing the competitive rivalry that went on between Mel B and Geri Halliwell during the Spice Girls years, we expect that Mel B is now hard at work trying to dream up a baby name that's even more ridiculous than Bluebell Madonna. Or at least that's what Mel B would be doing, were it not for the full-scale legal battle she's probably planning with Eddie Murphy over her baby's paternity.
We'll admit that a few eyebrows were raised round these parts when Mel B first got together with Eddie Murphy, especially when Eddie Murphy apparently got Mel B pregnant after about three seconds of them dating. But then things inevitably went awry – Eddie Murphy split up with Mel B via the traditional means of going on a Dutch entertainment show and demanding that Mel B gets a DNA test on her unborn baby. Since then there have been various denials by Mel B and a ridiculously expensive legal team assembled ready for this forthcoming DNA battle between Mel B and Eddie Murphy over this new baby.
To be honest, we're not too sure what the point of all this posturing is – Eddie Murphy wants a DNA test to prove that the baby isn't his while Mel B presumably wants a DNA test to prove that the baby is his, so since they both agree that a DNA test is required, it probably doesn't call for all this legal back-up. But let's just say that a DNA test is too complicated – there's always an easier way to discover if the baby belongs to Eddie Murphy or not. Mel B needs to sit her newborn baby girl down and tell it that it didn't win an Oscar. If the baby spazzes out and walks off in a strop, we're guessing it's a Murphy baby.
