Mel B finds dancing show 'scary'

Mel B has admitted that she finds appearing on Dancing With The Stars scarier than singing with the Spice Girls.

The 32-year-old made her debut on the hit show earlier this week, scoring 24 out of 30 to finish in second place.

But she said dancing for the judges is more stressful than performing in front of her bandmates because her mistakes have serious repercussions.

She said: "If I messed up with the Spice Girls, I'd just turn round to Victoria or Geri and we'd laugh. Here you get points deducted and are kicked off."

According to reports, Mel's husband Stephen Belafonte is furious about the amount of time she spends rehearsing with dance partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy, who she has described as "sexy as hell".
