• Mel C (Melanie Chisholm), 52, appeared on Cosmopolitan’s Blind Date and was asked which Spice Girl was “the most boy crazy” during the group’s peak fame in the 1990s — she named Mel B (Melanie Brown), calling her the one with the “best success rate” with men
• “She was very popular,” Mel C said, noting she was “trying to find a better way of putting it” — and she also credited Mel B with giving the best dating advice because “she’s a cool girl”
• Separately, Mel C has been praised online for how she handled a podcaster’s question about her sexuality on The Mitch Churi Chat Show, with LGBTQ+ fans highlighting her response as both graceful and clear

Mel C is telling Spice Girls stories again, and the one she told on Cosmopolitan’s Blind Date is going to follow Mel B around for a while. Asked which member of the group was “the most boy crazy” when the Spice Girls were at the height of their fame, Mel C — born Melanie Chisholm, now 52 — chose her words carefully.

“I would say the best success rate,” she began, adding: “I’m trying to find a better way of putting it.” She landed on “she was very popular,” pointing to Mel B (Melanie Brown) as the Spice Girl with the most active romantic life during their shared years of worldwide fame, per Page Six.

Mel C also noted that Mel B gave the best dating advice of the group — because “she’s a cool girl.” Coming from someone who has known her for three decades, that framing reads as affectionate rather than pointed. The two Melanies have remained close since the group’s original run.

The Sexuality Question

A separate clip of Mel C has also been circulating this week — footage from The Mitch Churi Chat Show, in which the host asked an awkward question about her sexuality. LGBTQ+ fans praised Mel C’s handling of it as measured and self-possessed: she acknowledged she’d encountered the assumption before, said she didn’t have a problem with it, but made clear where she stood, per People. The clip spread largely because of how calmly she navigated what the host did not.
