Scary Spice Mel B's odd morning routine includes spooking pet goat into fainting

Mel B is still living up to her Scary Spice nickname by ­spooking her goat into fainting.

The Spice Girl s star, 47, who lives in Los Angeles, loves acting the goat each morning by frightening Phyllis.

The pet is a fainting goat, who are born with a condition that makes their muscles stiffen when they are startled.

Mel’s goat-scaring antics were revealed by her pal drag queen Trixie Mattel.

Trixie said: “She told me that every day she kicks open her kitchen windows and scares the goats and says good morning and they faint.” Trixie said Mel called the goat spooking “f***ing hilarious”.

But Phyllis has got her own back by walking in on Mel in a compromising position with male model Danny Lopes, 40.

He said: “We were making love on the bed and heard a ‘baahaa’. Phyllis was in the corner of the room staring at us.”

In another jape, Mel used dye to give the black goat a multi-coloured makeover.

She shared a snap online, adding: “Yep that’s right Phyllis my fainting goat I had tie-dyed, organically of course, all the chakra colours and she loves it.”

Fainting goals originate from Tennesse, US, and clips of their reactions have become a hit on TikTok.
