SPICE GIRL MELANIE BROWN almost threw the SPICE GIRLS' tour into jeopardy when she twisted her foot on New Year's Eve, according to bandmate GERI HALLIWELL.
Halliwell, 35, told fans on Wednesday night (02Jan08) how Mel B tumbled down a set of stairs after a celebratory dinner at posh London restaurant Claridge's - and blamed the incident on her bandmate's excessive drinking.
Speaking on stage at the beginning of their first show of 2008 at London's O2 Arena, she said, "I have an exclusive for you. Mel B got so drunk she fell down a flight of stairs and twisted her ankle, so she won't be busting the moves tonight."
But despite one slip-up on stage, Brown reportedly put on a stellar performance.
The star's injury is the latest ankle woe in the Spice camp, after bandmate Emma Bunton was left on crutches following a stage stumble in Vegas last year (07).
