The Secret Life of … Mel B

She may have lost out to race-car driver Helio Castroneves on "Dancing with the Stars," but Melanie Brown (a.k.a. Scary Spice, Mel B) is determined to make a go of a post- Spice Girls career. She'll co-emcee the 2008 Miss Universe pageant with Jerry Springer next month for NBC. And today, Brown and fellow former pop star Joey Fatone will co-host TLC's "The Singing Office," a series in which the pair surprises several unsuspecting offices by rallying the 9-to-5 staffers into competing in a musical throwdown. "There was something about being there with the everyday office crowd that turned out to be a lot of fun. Some of them really wanted to sing, others I had to chase around with a mic," she says. But make no mistake, "We weren't out to find the next big pop star, so don't expect that!"
