Geri Halliwell's dog has been banned from the Top of the Pops studio, according to a report in The Mirror.
Halliwell, who takes her dog everywhere with her, tried to bring shih-tzu Harry into the studio, as she performed her new single Ride It for the show.
However, the dog was refused entry due to health and safety reasons.
A spokesman for the show explained, "It is a live show and there are lots of cameras around so you can't have a dog running everywhere."
The show's bosses were also forced to ensure in advance that Geri's outfit for the show wasn't too raunchy.
