All Saints singer Shaznay Lewis has denied being ‘beaten up’ by Mel B.

The former Spice Girl claimed she ripped out Lewis’ weave after the pair became embroiled in a bathroom altercation.

Speaking about the rivalry between the two girl bands, Mel B – real name Melanie Brown – told Allegedly Podcast: “There was this girl group called All Saints and I’d already beaten up one of them in the bathroom, the black girl, Shaznay.

“She started giving me attitude so I went into the bathroom and tried to rip her weave off.

"And she chokes me and then we kind of got split up, but I won."

But Lewis said the claims have left her “baffled”.

A spokesperson told Digital Spy: "Shaznay says this story is not true. Mel B once came to an All Saints show and was invited to the after party.

"Mel and Shaznay had a brief friendly chat and that was all. Otherwise they don't really know each other – so we are baffled as to why Mel would make this up."

Mel B also opened up about her former band mate Victoria Beckham who she deemed a “b***h”.

"She is very down to earth she's just a little bit of a b***h to people,” the America’s Got Talent judge said. “But she's very down to earth with a great sense of humour. I think between the five of us we're all b*****s at some point."
