Mel B

Mel B will reportedly be sued for £500,000 plus interest over "fraud" and "breach of contract".

The company BMEDIA has filed a lawsuit against the singer, her husband Stephen Belafonte and their business partners.

It claims that they invested £500,000 in 2008 when the singer insisted that she would be releasing an album but then took on a role in Las Vegas production Peep Show instead.

BMEDIA is also suing for a 12.5% share in profits that were made by Mel B for her work in Peep Show and sales of her Totally Fit: Mel B exercise DVD.

Mel B and Belafonte are yet to comment on the lawsuit. (taheena)
