Mel B is forever changing her hairstyle. From her Spice Girls days when she was best known as Scary Spice, the star rocked a signature curly afro, and has since styled and straightened it varying lengths throughout the years. And on Tuesday's episode of America's Got Talent, she shocked viewers with a Barbie-inspired makeover, complete with long blonde hair and a pink dress. Her hair even had fellow judge Simon Cowell lost for words, which resulted in Mel asking him: "Do I look that different? What's your problem? Either you like it or you don’t!" The star also took to Instagram to share a short clip of her on the television with her blonde hair while talking to a contestant who had been rude to her. Her fans were quick to compliment her look, with one writing: "Love the hair, while another said: "LOVE the blonde hair." A third added: "You look beautiful."

While Mel has proved that she can pull off any hairstyle, the mother-of-three's blonde do was actually just a wig, and had been worn back in March when the show had been pre-recorded. The star had posted a video of her and Heidi Klum that month on Instagram, showing them dancing in their dressing room, which she captioned: "Yep @heidiklum I would die my hair blonde for you #onlyforyou #girlpower#blondehairdontcare @cyberalma." In another video, Mel shared a before-and-after of her hair as she took off the blonde with to reveal her natural hair, which had been braided.
