Escape artist’s snake trick has Mel rattled

MEL B has joked she would like to see her ex-husband Stephen Belafonte dumped into a tank of rattlesnakes.

The America’s Got Talent judge delivered the barb after she buzzed escape artist Lord Nil’s act on the US talent show.

Mystified by a performance in which Nil had to break out of his chains to save his fiancée from being dropped into a pit of snakes, Scary Spice, 43, asked: ‘I just don’t get it. Why would you do that to your wife? Why would you do that to your husband? I mean, there’s snakes involved.’

When fellow judge Howie Mandel quipped, ‘You wouldn’t do that to your ex-husband?’ she conceded: ‘Yes, of course I would.’
