NEXT PLAN: PARKING CARS, PUMPING GAS

Melanie B isn't in the least bit interested in promoting her forthcoming album - presumably because she knows the way the wind is blowing on that one. Oddly, considering The Sun is pushing the Spices reunion as a done deal, she's meant to be turning her back on music in favour of "her sitcom". (Actually, music has just been in touch and asked us to point out that it turned its back on her first.)

Yes, apparently she's shooting a sitcom, which will keep her busy for however long it takes to make three half-hours and have a meeting with grim-faced network executives carrying a metaphorical axe.
