So Mel, how much truth is there in the rumours of your marriage break-up?

Jimmy and I are working in America together. Everything's going to be fine. I'm happy with my life and that's the main thing isn't it?

Are you planning to live in America?

No! I love being in America, especially Virginia because it gets really hot and I can get a tan. But England is my home and I wouldn't want to leave. I wouldn't mind getting a flat in New Yourk though cos it's a fantastic place. Mel's buying a place in LA so if I get one in New Your we can mix and match!

What do you think of Mel C's new image?

I love it. I love her hair. She didn't know whether or not to do it and I think it looks brilliant. I couldn't believe it when I saw her wearing a skirt at the Austin Powers premiere - I haven't seen her legs in years!

Victoria and David just got married, do you have any advice for them?

No, she doesn't need it. They're both really big stars aren't they? They wanted a big day and that was right for them.

How do you think Geri's career is going?

Well, her first single wasn't my cup of tea. But that doesn't mean I don't want it to do well. Itwent to number two in the charts and that's really good, so good luck to her.

Since the Spice Girls Documentary do you have anither TV or video plans up your sleeve?

No, if I was to star in anything it would be a big move and I'd play the lead. I want to do a moive in two years when I've had a few acting lessons and feel that I'm good enough. I wouldn't do a TV show.

There are rumours that you're gonna strip for the men's mag FHM - is that true?

No, not at the moment. I'm feeling a bit fat right now. I haven't lost all the weight I put on when I was pregnant.

How is baby Phoenix?

Fine, really well. She's asleep that the moment.

Have you played her any of your new songs?

No, she's a baby! What could she say to me? She just sleeps in the studip when I'm singing - probably isn't a good sign is it? One day I'll ask her opinion, but right now, she's more interested in sleeping!
