Bikini-clad Mel B swills champagne and chain-smokes on romantic holiday in Miami

After months of working out and eating well, Melanie Brown finally gets a chance to indulge her vices on holiday in Miami.
Bikini-clad Mel B swilled champagne and chain-smoked on romantic holiday in Miami after keeping in shape for the Spice Girls tour and her recent photoshoot for Ultimo swimwear and lingerie.
Dressed in her trademark style of a leopard-print bikini with bulky gold earrings, Scary Spice happily chaffed rose champagne and smoked a packet of cigarettes during her day by the pool.

Despite being handed two glasses with their ice bucket of bubbly, an enthusiastic Mel appeared to drink the bottle while husband Stephen was content to just bake in the sun.
The couple appeared to be having time off parenting the singer's two children Phoenix Chi, nine, and Angel Iris, 13 months, - whose father is Eddie Murphy - and Stephen's daughter Giselle.
They are just weeks away from their first wedding anniversary on June 6th.
The 32-year-old's holiday comes just a week after her swimwear shots for British firm Ultimo were unveiled.
The Leeds-born star was unveiled as the new face of Ultimo last month, replacing Girls Aloud singer Sarah Harding, and appears in ads for both the Scots firm's lingerie and swimwear.

The singer admits she is in the best shape of her life due to her appearance on the U.S. talent show Dancing With The Stars and the subsequent Spice Girls tour.
Last month, Mel said: "I am over the moon to become the face and body of Ultimo lingerie. When (CEO) Michelle Mone asked me, I was ecstatic. I was so excited, but slightly nervous? I had never modelled lingerie before.
"The photoshoot in LA was fantastic. Ultimo lingerie gives you a superb shape and is so comfortable with sexy styles in every collection. I took every set home with me."
Mel is taken a much needed holiday in Miami after a busy 12 months.
As well as starring on Dancing With The Stars and reuniting with the Spice Girls, Mel has also returned to the studio to record her third solo album and married producer Stephen in Las Vegas.
