Mel B’s Eldest Daughter Phoenix Names Newborn

*Mel B and husband Stephen Belafonte have named their daughter Madison Brown Belafonte.

Mel C Says Rihanna is a Bit Too Sexual For Youth Audience

She might be a big fan of the Barbadian singer but Melanie Chisholm has spoken out about Rihanna’s ‘inappropriate' overtly sexual behaviour.

The former Spice Girl believes that the singer has a responsibility to younger children to protect them, something which she has realised since becoming a mother.

Mel,37, took to Twitter and posted: ‘For the record. I am a big fan of Rihanna, I am also a mother.’

Too sexual: Mel C has spoken out about the over-sexualisation of children and said that

Rihanna has a responsibility to her younger fans

She said: ‘People have to take some responsibility because we’ve got to a point where over-sexualisation of young children has gone too far,’ the Mirror reported.

‘I think music is a big part of that. Women in music, very successful women, are extremely sexual and they have young fans. It is inappropriate.

‘Rihanna has responsibility and although culture’s always changing, it’s changed too much. It needs to be dealt with. It’s reached saturation point, we owe it to our kids to protect them.

‘Rihanna’s free to do as she pleases, of course, but I think her take on the criticism she’s had is interesting.’

Mel, who found fame as Sporty Spice in the most successful girl group of all time, gave birth to her daughter Scarlet Starr in February 2009.

Back in the day: Mel Spice Girls Emma Bunton, Victoria Beckham and Melanie Brown, has
remembered that she was criticised for being too sexual when they were performing together

And since then her priorities, and views have changed and she accepts that Rihanna might not understand her viewpoint given that she doesn’t have children of her own.

She told the paper: ‘I love Rihanna, I think she’s a f****** brilliant artist, with great songs, a great record and she looks fantastic... but she’s not a mum. Maybe if she becomes one she’ll feel different. I hope so anyway.’

Mel was no stranger to strutting her stuff in skimpy outfits during her Spice days and were often seen backflipping her way across the stage in cropped tops and tracksuits bottoms.

Rihanna, who is currently on her World Loud tour has raised eyebrows with her skimpy outfits

Saucy moves: And hers dance
routines have also caused concern

She said: ‘It’s a long time ago
since the Spice Girls were first
together and we were criticised
for being sexual.

Yes, we wore crop tops,
I mean look how much
has changed.’

And it isn’t just the music industry that has changed since
Melanie, Geri Halliwel, Victoria Beckham, Melanie Brown, 

and Emma Bunton rose to fame.

The mother of one has made a furrow into acting enjoying s successful West End theatre debut in Blood Brothers, which she received a Laurence Olivier nomination for.

But like her fellow Spice Girl Geri, Mel C has also been back in the
recording studio working on her latest album Sea. 

Mel’s new single Think About It is out on September 5.
