The 48-year-old singer – better known as Mel C – appeared on Australia’s The Project on Tuesday where she discussed her new autobiography Who I Am. In the interview, Mel discussed the “love affair” with her friends and former bandmates, saying while they “adore each other,” they can also “drive each other nuts.”
