Oops. Mel B introduced as Mel C at X Factor UK
Just one letter out, but it's embarrassment all round at the UK auditions for The X Factor.

It can’t have been the first time, surely?
Dancing with the Stars co-host Mel B (that letter again, “B”) is in the UK this week with a guest judging appearance on The X Factor.
But when a production assistant introduced her to crowds at the Manchester auditions, he announced, “Please welcome Mel C!”
Doh.
It’s Scary Spice not Sporty Spice, mate….
One punter said, “It was a bit awkward, everyone looked around for Mel C. The poor guy realised he’d made a mistake but Mel didn’t look too pleased.”
Mel has told The Sun: “I’m so, so, so excited to be a guest judge in Manchester. Being a northern girl, I believe there’s lots of amazing talent in the north of England. I am coming to find the winner.
“I love my job as a judge on The X Factor Australia, but it will be great to sit on the panel in the UK. Britain is, and always will be, my home and first love.”

I hope they dump her for next year. She really wasn’t very good, not a patch on Sonja.
I like that she tells it like it is.
How embarrassing and awkward. If she’s in the UK, does this mean she won’t be on Dancing this week?
I believe she will be back for DWTS.
Big oops indeed. I love Mel B and i can’t believe the flak she is getting from the crowds in Britain for “telling it like it is”. She told some old guy called Lou that she felt like falling asleep or something and they all booed her and chanted Bring Back Geri. I think its ridiculous. This is because Geri has come out with some pretty nasty things from what i have heard. If they are true that remains to be seen but the British seem to think so. Must say Mel B is going to be fun to watch this Sunday on DWTS being jetlagged and all. lol
