Former reality show Girls Next Door star Holly Madison admits she can’t understand Mel B’s British accent.
Madison, 30, got to know the ex-Spice Girls singer when they both appeared in Peepshow and she said Mel’s heavy Leeds accent is hard to interpret.
She told Britain’s Closer magazine: “I’ve got to know Mel B more recently because we’ve both appeared in a burlesque production called Peepshow in Vegas.
Mel’s hilarious and very over the top. I love listening to her English accent – it’s hard to understand what she’s saying sometimes! She’s a great dancer and she’s got lots of moves up her sleeve.
She’s left the show now and I’m still performing, but we’re still in touch”.
