Mel C rocks with baby

Mel C when she was preggers

Melanie C seems to have taken to motherhood like a duck to water since having baby Scarlet.

"I'm taking time off - it's been four months and this is my first night out!" she tells me at Hard Rock Calling in London's Hyde Park where we watched Bruce Springsteen.

Her album next year won't be about gooey baby stuff though. "I'm a rock girl," she says. "It'll be big rock numbers!"
