Mel B ditches her signature leopard-print style for zebra as she talks new season of America's Got Talent at Winter TCA Tour
Just 24 hours after confirming she was back as a judge on America's Got Talent, Mel B was already on the promo trail for the upcoming new season.
The former Spice Girl, 40, swapped her signature leopard-print look for a zebra-esque patterned-shirt as she joined fellow AGT judge Howie Mandel at the Winter TCA Tour in Pasadena, California on Wednesday.
The mother-of-three looked smart in the bold blouse and wide black trousers, with her hair pinned up in a quirky half-up, half down style.

On Tuesday, it was confirmed Mel B would be returning for her fourth year as a judge on the NBC show when Season 11 returns in the spring.
She will rejoin existing judges Howie and Heidi Klum, while Simon Cowell will be making his AGT judging debut on the show, having previously judged American Idol, Pop Idol, X Factor and Britain's Got Talent.
However, at the Winter TCA Tour, it was Mel and Howie holding the fort as they talked about the new season.

Mel's appearance came after her former Spice Girl bandmate Victoria Beckham denied reports she was reuniting with the girl group to mark their 20th anniversary this year.
There has been a lot of speculation about whether or not the five-piece will get together to mark the milestone, but Victoria is too busy with her family and fashion business.
Her spokesperson told TMZ.com: '(Victoria) has been very respectful about the fabulous time they had together in the past, however her focus is now very much her family and fashion business.'
