Too hot to handle? Mel B is the big draw on this year's X Factor, but some say the former Spice Girl is proving a challenge to manage.
It's understood the pregnant star has pulled out of at least one high-profile magazine shoot at the last minute. Journalists seeking any interviews in the lead-up to the show, which is expected to go to air around August, have been kept away from the singer.
Mel B did, however, do a radio interview with Austereo mid-week, as she's signed to the station for the duration of the show.
"The publicity team has no idea how to handle her," claimed a well-placed insider. "For one magazine shoot, Seven cancelled at the last minute with publicity intimating it was a really serious health problem," the source said. "Then Mel B was photographed by paparazzi out and about all over Sydney."
With all due respect, though, we love the straight-talking Mel B and we hear she's been a delight to production staff and her fellow judges - Ronan Keating, Guy Sebastian and Natalie Bassingthwaighte.
So if she's a bit demanding, we can forgive her. After all, we need a few more divas in this town.
