Mel B Walks Off AGT Stage After Simon Cowell Makes Insensitive Joke About Her Wedding Night
Melanie
“Mel B” Brown stormed off the America’s Got Talent stage Tuesday
night after fellow judge Simon
Cowell made a crude joke about her wedding night.
The incident comes as the former Spice Girl is in the middle of a divorce
from estranged husband Stephen Belafonte.
Cowell, 57, made a poorly timed jibe after a magician suffered a technical
malfunction during his performance.
“I kind of imagine this would be like Mel B’s wedding night,” Cowell said. “A lot of anticipation, not much promise or delivery.”
Brown did not appreciate the comment and proceeded to fling her glass of water at Cowell before walking out of the studio live on air.

“Mel B is out,” host Tyra Banks commented. “This is live TV, y’all. Live TV.”
PEOPLE confirmed in July that Brown was previously ordered to pay Belafonte $40,000 per month in temporary spousal support.
The
singer filed for divorce in March after nearly 10 years of marriage and
asked for joint legal and physical custody of their 5-year-old
daughter, Madison. She also requested to terminate the court’s ability
to award spousal support in her filing.
