Mel B jokes that her 'bubble butt' gave away her identity on The Masked Singer after she was revealed as Seahorse on the ITV show
She was unmasked as the Seahorse on Saturday's episode of The Masked Singer.
And Mel B has joked that it was her 'bubble butt' which gave her identity away after three of the four judges correctly guessed it was her.
The Spice Girl, 45, originally feared her Yorkshire accent would give her away, as she attempted to throw the judges off the scent by singing differently to usual.

Although Mel B has since joked that her 'bubble butt' and the way that she moved on stage gave her identity away.
She told The Sun: 'My bubble butt gave it away. And the way that I was moving gave it away too.
'I mean, I move like how I move. So when the nerves hit, even though you're not meant to move like yourself, you do. It's like character acting, like method acting.'

The star had performed Kylie Minogue's hit Can't Get You Out Of My Head on the show and, after she was revealed, Mel admitted she had tried to disguise herself by changing her voice and the way she sang.
Judges Davina McCall, Mo Gilligan and Rita Ora correctly identified her, while fourth judge Jonathan Ross was adamant it wasn't her.
He said he had 'heard Mel singing up close' before and instead guessed it could be chat show host Trisha Goddard.
After being unmasked, Mel said: 'I thought I disguised myself pretty well with my voice and accent and trying not to be like me. I'm very shocked that you guessed me.'

Asked by host Joel Dommett what the other Spice Girls would think of her appearance on the show, Mel said: 'They'll probably be annoyed I didn't tell them!'
Mel later admitted that she was tempted to tell her bandmates, despite not telling a soul she was taking part in the competition.
She said: 'I didn't tell any of them. I didn't tell anybody, not even my mum and my mum's a big gossip so I definitely wouldn't have told her.'
Speaking on The Masked Singer's spin-off show Unmasked to host Will Njobvu, Mel added that she found singing in costume 'nerve-wracking' and tried hard to disguise her Leeds accent.
She said: 'It's a bit nerve wracking because with this mask on you can't see and it's very constricted - so it's literally like singing with someone's hand in your face so that bit was a bit daunting but when the music starts you just get into it.
'I thought I did quite a good job not sounding so northern. To be quite girl and soft with no accent was hard work actually.'
