Mel B took to the X factor stage in Australia this week, to show contestants just why Simon Cowell had hired her as a judge for the series.
She and her fellow judges all performed snippets of songs they have previously released but hers was, by far, the worst performance.
Guy Sebastian was impressive while singing ‘Who’s That Girl’, Natalie Bassingthwaighte gave a smooth vocal performance of ‘Someday Soon’ and Ronan Keating showcased his unique and husky voice when he sang ‘Lovin Each Day’ – he even broke out his trusty guitar for the occasion!

Before returning to Oz however, Mel B will be joined by her former bandmate Mel C in her LA home, where the pair will choose three final acts who will go on to compete on the live shows.

Former Spice Girl Mel B – who is joined on the judging panel of the Australian version of The X Factor by Boyzone star Ronan Keating, Australian singer Natalie Bassingthwaite and Guy Sebastian – claims she “doesn’t care” about her fellow judges’ opinions, and she labelled Ronan a “know it all”.
Mel, who’s pregnant with her third child, said, “I don’t care much for the other judges. Ronan thinks he knows it all and Natalie is just too nice – and really dishonest.
“Guy could just be boring, like, ‘Get on with it. Keep moving brother.’”
Mel, who was of course dubbed Scary Spice during her time with the Spice Girls, has also told her fellow judges that she’s the only “b***h” allowed on the show.
She said, “There’s only room for one b***h and that’s me.” Read more & comment »

Simon Cowell hired Mel B so that she could stir up some trouble on the Australian X Factor series, and it seems that she has taken to the role like a duck to water.
The former Spice Girl has only just started auditioning hopefuls for the series which will soon launch in Oz and already she’s revealed that she has little time for her fellow panellists – Natalie Bassingthwaighte, Ronan Keating and Guy Sebastian.
Mel is currently residing in Los Angeles and is heavily pregnant with her third child, and speaking in an interview with The Sydney’s Daily Telegraph, she explained why she doesn’t get along with the other judges.

Mel B was seen waddling around LA this week, with a huge bump, in even huger heels!
The former Spice Girl was meeting Simon Cowell about her upcoming stint as a judge on his Australian version of The X Factor and modelled a brightly coloured scarf around her belly and silver strappy platform stilettos.
She may only be a month off giving birth to her third child, but Mel is not yet prepared to compromise on her fashion and took to Twitter to tell followers:
‘Even though I’m waddling when I walk, I can’t give up wearing my Laboutin (sic) heels just yet!!!!! off to my meeting!!’
