Animated Mel B in new Virgin advert

7:43am Wednesday 3rd September 2008

Former Spice Girl Mel B seeks plastic surgery to enhance her chest in a new cinema advert.

The animated commercial puts Scary Spice back into her trademark leopard print catsuit.

Gesturing at her chest, the Leeds-born singer, 33, tells a German plastic surgeon she wants to make a "big impression in Hollywood".

The surgeon - Sir Richard Branson in disguise - prescribes a movie service from Virgin Media to help her "stand out from zee udders".

Mel B said: "I'm over the moon with my animated alter ego and the advert really made me giggle. It's definitely fresh and original".

Mel B married film producer Stephen Belafonte in Las Vegas last summer following a whirlwind romance as he helped her over her split with actor Eddie Murphy.

The couple live in the Hollywood Hills with Mel B's daughters Phoenix Chi, nine, and Angel, 16 months.

Mel B found fresh fame in the US when she came second last year on the TV hit Dancing with the Stars.

The advert for Virgin Media's Movies on Demand service will be shown on cinema screens from next week.
