Former Spice Girl Melanie Brown has become a 'butt' of jokes after her hips vanished in an underwear advert due to 'scary' airbrushing.



The 'Wannabe' hitmaker, who donned red lingerie to promote Ultimo's latest range, is looking rather funny in the advert as her hips look widely out of proportion with her full figure.



"Mel should shoot whoever did this. She looks like a cartoon," the Daily Star quoted a fan, as saying. Another fan said: "Tragic – they've taken away the curves that make her a top bod!"



Mel's modelling contract is thought to be worth up to 500,000 pounds. Mel B recently admitted that she was 'seriously considering' a 1 million pounds offer to strip off for Playboy magazine.
