The story unfolded with comedic flair, offering a glimpse into Mel B's family life and the resurgence of the '90s fashion.

Mel B's hilarious account of her daughter raiding her wardrobe

"So, my daughter's 24, right, And, so, she used to live with me, but now she's 24. I kind of kicked her out. Go make your own living," Mel B hilariously confessed, setting the stage for the tale.

She humorously described how her daughter raided her wardrobe and subsequently bombarded her with photos on Instagram, seeking fashion advice.

"I'm looking on Instagram, and she sends me through this flurry of pictures like, 'Mum, do you like this? Do you like that?' And I'm like, 'Well, first of all, I have to get my glasses on'."

Mel B recounted, exhibiting her humorous side, "That looks a bit like me. And she's got all my bloody outfits on. The [girl] stole my look and went into my wardrobe," she exclaimed, emphasizing her playful frustration at her daughter's fashion antics.

Mel B and her daughter's strikingly similar style choices

The discussion continued as Fallon displayed photos of Mel B and her daughter side by side, donning similar outfits. "Look at this. This is spitting image," Fallon remarked, acknowledging the uncanny resemblance.

Mel B humorously chimed in, "I did think it was a bit of a trick, like, 'Who wore it better?' I was like, 'Me'."

Reflecting on the Spice Girls era and their iconic fashion choices, Mel B nostalgically reminisced about the band's early days. "Spice Girls, you know, we're very much a homegrown band. So, we used to style ourselves," she revealed.



 

Mel B's tale of grit, gigs, and gratefulness

Recalling the journey of the band's rise to fame, Mel B shared anecdotes of their humble beginnings, highlighting their struggles and resourcefulness.

"We'd beg producers and co-writers to work with us on the promise that when we're rich and famous, we'll pay you back. We never did," Mel B humorously confessed, shedding light on their determination and hustle during their rise to stardom.

She reminisced about the simplicity of their choreography and their self-styling endeavors, with outfits often being thrifted or handmade.

Amid laughter and nostalgia, Mel B concluded with a humorous remark from her daughter about the resurgence of '90s fashion.
