Dance Your Ass Off will be back for a second season on Oxygen, but with a new host. Dancing with the Stars 6 contestant Marissa Jaret Winokur is being replaced by DWTS 5 semi-finalist Mel B. So why the change? Well even though Marissa did a good job on the show, she didn’t test well enough with their audience so they made the tough decision to replace her. According to EP Dan Cutforth Oxygen’s audience are Spice Girls’ fans, so Mel B was the perfect fit for the show. I have to admit I wanted to watch the first season of the show, but I opted not watch it because I personally find Marissa annoying. Now that Mel B is taking over for her, I will totally check it out.
Mel B told us that she lost her baby weight (60 pounds) by dancing and wishes they had this show on when she was trying to lost that weight because she totally would’ve done it. She told us that she will do more than just host, but she did not really explain how.
Now back to the show here are some updates. Season 1 winner Ruben Permel lost 90 pounds because of the show. If that is not good enough, four of the competitors are teaching dance now. Dance had become a big part of their lives now.
Now back to Scary Spice, she told us that there will be a Spice Girls announcement coming soon, but she didn’t tell us what but it sounds like it is going to be good. Melanie Brown also told us the secret to her abs and we can have them too if we get her workout DVD Totally Fit which actually sounded like a lot of fun when she was telling us about it.
If you Wannabe the next Spice Girl, then you might just have your chance because according to The Sun the 5 girls will be looking for the next them on a reality show. The show will have, “The real Spice ladies – MEL C, Mel B, GERI HALLIWELL, VICTORIA BECKHAM and EMMA BUNTON sit on the panel, pass judgment and give advice to their new counterparts.” Considering the band got their start that way minus the reality show, they should know what they are doing. That and they have the personalities to do it. As of now the show is only planned for The UK, but I hope it hope it crosses over the pond too. Are/would you watch? I would!

On Thursday night Victoria Beckham made a statement at New York Fashion Week in a Giles Dean mini-dress and then yesterday Sara Paxton wore the same thing to The Beautiful Life premiere. So who do you think wore the dress, that I think looks like it is made out of wrapping paper, better? I think Sara wins this fashion battle hands down just because I think the dress looks better without the thigh high boots. On a boots note, you know that Posh Spice is using them right now to stick them up where the sun don’t shine to the person that allowed her to wear dress that would be worn by someone else so soon after she did.
BTW on a Sara Paxton note, The Beautiful Life premieres on The CW this Wednesday.

While Mel B’s body is amazing, to me I think it looks more like a man’s than a woman’s and that is Scary to me. Do you guys like her 6 pack abs?
Melanie C aka Sporty Spice, the last Spice Girl to breed the next generation of Spice Girls had a baby girl yesterday!
Do you think she wants Scarlett to be a Starr like her? And how the heck did she have such a big baby?
