Biography
Born on May 29, 1975 in Leeds, England, Melanie Brown became a member of The Spice Girls in 1994. Their three albums sold than 40 million copies worldwide and they had nine singles at number 1 in the UK.
"Hot" was her first solo album, released on October 9, 2000. It entered the UK charts at #28. Despite producing 2 Top 5 singles (3, if you include the hit "I Want You Back"), the album only ever re-entered the chart once after dropping out of the Top 100 - peaking at #95 when "Feels So Good" was being promoted in February 2001. To date, the album has sold about 50,000 copies in the UK. The album sold 8,000 copies in its first week.
After she parted with Virgin Records, she started a new successful career as TV presenter and actress. In 2001, her own show "This Is My Moment" was a great success and, after the second series, she made a documentary about Africans voodoos.
In 2002, she was one of the protagonists of the BBC3's sit-com "Burn It" and made her theater debut with "The Vagina Monologues" in London.
She has a lead role in two upcoming movies: the horror LD 50 Lethal Dose and the comedy The Seat Filler (with Kelly Rowland of Destiny's Child).
From April to September 2004, she played the role of "Mimi" in the famous musical "Rent" on Broadway.
In 2005, Melanie released her second solo album, "L.A. State Of Mind", featuring the single "Today". Both the single and the album flopped.
In 2007 Melanie went through an emotional time in her life when Eddie Murphy, who fathered her little girl Angel Iris, denied that he was the father. Promting a media frenzy and a legal battle to prove that he was indeed the father. Tests later proved that Mel was right.
You can now catch Melanie on Dancing With The Stars where she is partnered with professional dancer Maksim.
Also The Spice Girls are about to embark on a World Tour their first together in years!
