Mel C thinks Little Mix are the new Spice Girls.
The 40-year-old singer recently teamed up with the 'Move' hitmakers for a Sport Relief video for their single 'Word Up' and praised the band who are following in the footsteps of her and band mates Victoria Beckham, Mel B, Geri Halliwell and Emma Bunton.
She told BANG Showbiz: "It was great filming with them, they are such fun girls ... I think they're the closest thing to the Spice Girls."
The 'I Turn To You' singer has also teamed up with up-and-coming artist Peter Aristone to record the track 'Cool As You' and jumped on stage with the singer at the trendy Queen of Hoxton pub in east London last night (12.03.14) to perform the song live for the first time at a free gig.
Peter introduced Mel C as "the sexiest woman in the world" and gushed about playing her lover in their new video.
He said: "It's quite a simple scenario, I'm driving to her house and she's sat on her bed singing 'Cool As You'.
"At the end of the video we meet up, we don't kiss, " he jokingly added: "But she kisses me all the time anyway. She's very supportive and we would like to do more together and play live shows."
Meanwhile, Mel C laughed off the idea of the Spice Girls having a Las Vegas residency, after band mate Emma said it would take more than Britney Spears' rumoured £195,000-per-show to make the girl band reunite again.
'Cool As You' will feature on Peter's forthcoming album '19 Days in Tetbury' and will be released on March 31 with the album coming out in the Autumn.

The 'Call My Name' hitmaker, who has revealed her new album is "almost done", has recorded a hip-hop track co-written by Jon, who helped to pen Eminem and Rihanna's number one hit 'The Monster', and producer Jesse Shatkin confirmed she has also been working on a new ballad.

Jesse has worked with huge stars including Pink, Kelly Clarkson and Kylie Minogue and has worked on a number of other songs on Cheryl's fourth studio album, the follow-up to 'A Million Lights' in 2012.

"Then I started recording the new album and that's almost done. There's no delay on the album. I've got things in the pipeline."
Meanwhile, the 30-year-old singer revealed that Simon Cowell was "begging" for her to return to 'The X Factor'

Lily Allen claims MTV want to ban her music video during the daytime because it promotes anti-social behaviour.
The 'Hard Out Here' singer is seen in the video for her song 'Our Time' drinking from a flask in the back of a taxi before fighting with another version of herself dressed as a hot dog.
Lily revealed the ban on Twitter by posting an email sent to her by her management, along with the caption, "Age of Beige (sic)".
The email read: "MTV want to ban the 'Our Time' video during the daytime, unless they get a clean edit that show you a) NOT DRINKING FROM A FLASK and b) NOT DISPLAYING ANTI-SOCIAL BEHAVIOUR FROM DRINKING BY FIGHTING WITH THE HOT DOG. I told the label we are NOT making a clean version of the video. Bring on the controversy! (sic)"
Lily then hit back at the channel by writing on Twitter: "I thought MTV just played Catfish and My Super Sweet 16."
Fans were quick to support the 28-year-old star, who is preparing to release her new album 'Sheezus' and one follower wrote: "They're right, hotdog attacks are a real problem nowadays. Don't promote it."
Meanwhile, when she's not fighting to get her music videos on TV, Lily admits she's become addicted to dating app Tinder, despite being married to Sam Cooper, with whom she has Ethel, now two, and Marnie, 14 months.
Lily tweeted: "Just discovered tinder. *Waves goodbye to life* (sic)"

Scarlett Johansson's pregnancy hasn't affected 'The Avengers: Age of Ultron' script.
The 29-year-old actress is due to welcome her first child into the world with her fiancé Romain Dauriac, 31, in August, and although film bosses were "excited" for her they needed to "move" things "shedule-wise".
Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige admitted they want to hide the blonde beauty's bump so viewers would "never know" Black Widow, also known as Natasha Romanoff, was pregnant when they shoot scenes for the upcoming movie.
Feige told Collider.com: "Well my first reaction was I was very happy for her and very excited for her. My second reaction was we've got to move some pieces on the chess board around schedule-wise. But we didn't change the script at all, which is sort of the most important things for us in terms of the storyline. I think the goal is for us to sit here talking about the fact that you would never know that Black Widow was pregnant during the filming of the movie when you see the final version of 'Avengers 2'."

The 'High School Musical Star' - who completed a stint in rehab just under a year ago for alleged cocaine and alcohol abuse - has made major life changes to keep himself substance-free.
The 26-year-old actor has stopped attending Hollywood parties and prefers to spend his time looking over movie scripts, going to the gym and attending his 12-step meetings to help with his addiction.
An insider told People magazine: "He cut most everyone out of his life who were part of the party scene," while another added: "[He] is totally committed to being sober now."
Although the sources allege that Zac still "has temptations", the teen heart throb was is high spirits at the SXSW festival last weekend where he admitted to feeling "blessed" in his career so far.
He said: "I've been blessed to have the opportunities I've had. It couldn't have happened better. I'm stoked."

Peter Andre is going to have two weddings.
The 41-year-old star, who is engaged to medical student Emily MacDonagh, is planning a massive celebration to mark his second marriage and will have not one, but two ceremonies - one in England and another with his family in Cyprus.
He exclusively told BANG Showbiz: "Definitely, definitely got to do something traditionally English and then we'll go to Cyprus and do a Greek wedding as well."
But Peter, who welcomed daughter Amelia with Emily in January, has ruled out a third wedding in Australia, where he grew up.
He quipped: "I'll be wiped out by the second one! I'm getting old, I can't be having three weddings. Who does three weddings?"
The proud father-of-three - who also has son Junior, eight, and six-year-old daughter Princess Tiaamii with first wife Katie Price - says he has no plans to slow down his TV career after taking a few weeks of paternity leave, and is more driven than ever to provide for his family.
He explained: "I had three weeks off, but I'm back to work ... I'm loving it. I love my job. I love it so much, I get all these different things happening and I'm still here, I can't believe it.
"As your family's getting more, you've got to work harder, don't you? It's so true. At one point last year, I was like, 'Ah, I don't know if I want to do this anymore', but now I want to work harder than I've ever worked and I'm loving it."

The 28-year-old star has made a big comeback this year after announcing she was quitting music in 2009 to raise a family with her husband Sam Cooper, with whom she has Ethel, now two, and Marnie, 14 months.
Nowadays, Lily says her family is her support system and keeps her grounded amid all the craziness of the showbiz industry.
Lily added in an interview with TheDebrief.co.uk: "On the surface of it I am happy... I'm quite grounded, and I've got a really lovely husband who looks after me, who I can speak to five times a day and who reminds me why I'm doing what I'm doing.
"I've got two beautiful children and I have to check myself sometimes and think, 'This is weird.' It could consume you and make you go quite strange, but I try to not let it."

According to the auction listing, the mystery owner says police ordered him away from the scene but he returned to look when the wreckage was cleared and found the sunglasses in the bushes.
The listing states: "The owner of this lot offering was nearby and on scene for information and assistance with officers and reporters.
"Once the site investigation was cleared with car debris hauled away and tape taken down, a responding officer allowed him as well as others back to the public site.
"The only thing left was a charred ivy brush, minor residual debris, a knocked down pole and tree.
"As the consigner walked the scene in disbelief and grief, he found a pair of sunglasses nearby in the ivy. After showing one of the officers, he was waved off. The glasses were dirty so he wrapped them in a handkerchief and put them in his pocket. He also found some residual debris nearby which he kept in memorandum."
The listing on BidAMI.com also includes a fire extinguisher which the owner claims was used on the scene, crash debris and photographs taken at the site.
The lot has so far attracted three bids, and the current sale price is $605.
