Inside Mel B's lavish Hollywood Hills mansion – costume room and regal entrance

Mel B shot to fame in the 90s as one-fifth of the biggest UK girl band, Spice Girls, alongside Emma Bunton, Geri Halliwell, Mel C and Victoria Beckham.

After the girl group disbanded in 2001, the brunette beauty – whose real name is Melanie Brown – has gone on to release her solo album as well as establish herself as a television personality and talent show judge.

But the northern singer, 46, isn’t just known for her impressive vocals, after she received an MBE from the Duke of Cambridge for her immense charity work with domestic abuse victims.

She has quickly become a prominent domestic violence campaigner after she allegedly left a toxic 10-year relationship with her ex-husband Stephen Belafonte, who continues to deny her abuse allegations.

As the songstress prepares to take part in the third series of the US version of The Circle with her fellow bandmember Emma, Daily Star have taken a look inside her lavish Hollywood Hills home which has recently been put up for sale.

The property is reportedly priced at an estimated $3million (approx. £2.5million) and neighbours Hollywood stars such as Christina Aguilera, Justin Timberlake and Chris Pratt to name but a few.

And it’s clear to see the mum-of-three is extremely proud of her stunning mansion as she regularly showcases her home fit for a princess on Instagram.

Scary Spice shares her sprawling home with her three children Phoenix Chi Gulzar, 23, Angel Iris Murphy Brown, 15, and Madison Brown Belafonte,10.

The brunette beauty teased the outside of her home which boasts a lush green private hedge complete with stone steps leading up to her dark wooden arched front door which features two lamps either side.

And it’s fair to say a high level of opulence is a strong theme which runs throughout the entire property as the inside of her Hollywood mansion could easily be mistaken for a palace.

The singer’s grand entrance is decked out in lavish white marble floors with a sweeping open staircase which leads visitors to the master bedroom with a black and gold banister.

In keeping with the theme, the artwork in her home also oozes style with unique pieces such as a Louis Vuitton banana painting by none other than praised artist Campbell La Pun which is priced at $1290.

At the foot of the stairs is another regal looking black and gold bench which leads to her sitting room, which features an enormous flat-screen TV mounted to the wall.

There is also a large Buddha statue with a pristine white family-sized sofa with matching white mesh curtains that drapes onto the floor.

Also dotted around the room is several pieces she took from her time in the beloved Broadway production Chicago where she played Roxie Hart for one year in 2016.

Fans of Mel will tell you that the singer is a keen socialiser and regularly invites her star-studded friends over to her luxury property for dinner parties with delicious BBQ meals and Friday steak nights.

To make room for all of her guests, the mum hosts multiple dining areas for her guests including an indoor dining room which looks like something pulled straight out of Downton Abbey.

It features regal and embroidered wooden chairs with an oversized wooden table which had a large gold table runner placed in the centre as a with a large gold framed mirror hung over the fireplace behind them.

But this isn’t the only spot the loving mum likes to entertain, as she also has an outdoor eating area and kitchen in order to make the most of the Californian sun.

In the back garden is a large archway that leads to her outdoor terrace and garden with several patio heaters to make sure her guests are way in the evenings and oversized outdoor sofas enough to comfortably fit an army.

Her garden includes a huge swimming pool and even includes its own balcony and terrace above it complete with regal pillars to add that extra touch of pizzazz to the gorgeous space.

But when the star wants to kick back and relax, Mel easily waltzes her way to one of her many fabulous bedrooms, many of which include a grand walk-in wardrobe.

One of her favourite rooms in the house is her glorious Spice Girls costume room fitted with custom-made chandeliers and filled with memorabilia from her time in the band.

It includes gold silk furnishings such as grand draping curtains and matching sating soda, with a slew of records and posters from their successful runs in 1994-2000, 2007-2008 and their stella Olympics reunion in 2012.

Many of her iconic costumes proudly displayed on shop mannequins including her leopard print suits and catsuits from her famed global tours as she posed up a storm in an oversized pink fur dressing gown.
