It seems Melanie Brown really felt the stress of a lengthy Spice Girls tour, as she needed a vacation right away as soon as the world tour was over. Here is Mel B enjoying some fun in the sun with hubby Stephen Belafonte in Miami shortly after the tour ended. Her stress relief may be stemming also from her long winded child support battle that she’s going through with Eddie Murphy as well. The pair have an 11 month old daughter together which Eddie seems to not want to be bothered with, in any way. Guess he thinks he’s trying to scoop her for millions, and doesn’t want to step up. It’s good she’s got the courts to make that decision for her. And here she is taking a breath of air to unwind from it all. Lookin’ great too, love when those who aren’t stick figures are confident enough to go to bikini land.

We have another Spice girl in the news now with Mel B., who is affectionately known as Scary Spice, ripping up the carpet on Dancing with the Stars in L.A. She’s seen here on the set of Dancing with the Stars in a pretty flowery number and with curlers in her hair, and she seemed to have a great time chatting it up with dance pro Mark Ballas for some time. At the same time, she was trying to perform a juggling act with all of her assorted sundries. She’s toting a laptop, laptop lead, cell phone, bottle of water, and a Ziploc or something similar containing some makeup. What’s interesting is that in the plastic bag she was toting you can see a pack of cigarettes. Did I miss something? Didn’t this girl just have a baby? Interesting… at any rate, regardless of the fact that she needs about 4 more arms, she seemed to be enjoying herself.

Mel B and her new hubby Stephen Belafonte are still in the lusty smoochy cuddly phase of their union. Here they are goo-goo-ing and ga-ga-ing while they purchase clothes for Mel B’s 4 month old daughter Angel, who she had with Eddie Murphy. The wedding between her and Stephen was strictly hush hush, and followed shortly after the very public breakup between her and Eddie Murphy. Even her mom didn’t attend the wedding, despite their very ‘close’ relationship of talks and texts. But the ring gave it away. Those close to Mel are a little concerned about the whirlwind aspect as well as the rebound nature of this wedding. But you know, love is a boomerang sometimes, isn’t it. While she is enjoying the honeymoon phase with Stephen, she is pushing the custody suit with Eddie Murphy as high into the spotlight as he did with their breakup. She’s appeared on Larry King with her high profile lawyer, and the good, the bad, and the ugly is expected to make the forefront. Well, despite this little sidetrack, if she and Stephen are truly happy, then let’s let them enjoy it.

You know things are going to get heated in Hollywood when you have 1 baby mama, 1 baby daddy, 1 baby, and 1 baby mama boyfriend. Actually I think things are more confusing than heated here. In this case, Eddie Murphy is baby daddy, Melanie Brown is mommy to Angel and boyfriend is Stephen Belafonte. And Murphy’s lawyer has just released a statement that he is doing the right thing and paying support for the little Angel and he also handled some of Melanie’s pregnancy expenses. I am not sure how much involvement he has in the child’s life. Nor am I sure how thrilled he’d be to see where some of his support *might* be going. Here is Melanie breaking open some bubbly with her BF.

“The results of the DNA test, which Murphy took on June 11, were received by Brown on Thursday afternoon, says rep Liza Anderson. “He’s the baby’s father, it’s official,” says a source close to Brown. “The baby is undoubtedly, 110 percent his.” Of Brown, the source said, “There was no doubt in people’s minds anyways, least of all hers. It wasn’t a surprise to her. She knew all along.” ~ People

Murphy’s rep declined to comment. I guess this is the type of press that Kelly Robinson doesn’t want! That makes him what 50 in 0… how many kids does he have!? I SPY one more (groan).

Today Eddie Murphy has been ordered to submit a DNA test to see if he’s the baby daddy of Angel Iris, daughter of spice girl Melanie B. Here they are at the facility to get tested.

According to The Sun a source claims, “At least this way they will know officially whether Eddie is the daddy or not and move on from there. This isn’t about the money, it’s about Angel knowing for sure who her dad is.”

Ouch! What a diss… your baby daddy must take a paternity test by law! Somebody wants nothing to do with you or your baby.

Melanie B., Scary Spice, poses with her newborn baby girl, Angel Iris Murphy Brown, and her first daughter. Angel’s second middle name is due to her “father” Eddie Murphy and it is out of respect for actress Candice Bergen, whom Mel’s reportedly a big fan of. I’m a pretty big fan of Eddie Murphy’s… he’s hilarious in I Spy with Owen Wilson, but… I’m not too impressed with dead-beat dads. Eddie, take the paternity test!!

Former Spice Girl Melanie B. also known as Scary Spice gave birth to a baby girl earlier this morning !!

She hasn’t picked a name yet nor does she know who the actual father is…nice. She claims that actor Eddy Murphy is the baby daddy and here is what Eddy had to say about that on a Dutch TV show last December :

“I don’t know whose child that is until it comes out and has a blood test. You shouldn’t jump to conclusions, sir.”

Can’t blame Eddy for denying being the father…Scary Spice is pretty darn fugly ergh!! Poor baby.
