| Mel B. Names Baby Daughter After Murphy Melanie Brown has given her baby daughter the surname of ex-boyfriend Eddie Murphy, the former Spice Girl said in a statement Tuesday. Brown, 31, gave birth to Angel Iris Murphy Brown on April 3 in Santa Monica, Calif. She listed Murphy's name on the birth certificate. She said the name was inspired by a number of things. "Angel, as she was my little angel through my pregnancy. Iris, as it's my grandma's name, Murphy because he's the dad, and Brown, because I'm the Mum!" the statement said. Murphy, 46, has said he's not sure he's the father. Brown, known as Scary Spice when she was in the megahit group of the '90s, has an 8-year-old daughter, Phoenix Chi. Murphy, whose screen credits include "Dreamgirls," has five children from his marriage to Nicole Mitchell Murphy. |

According to Laist.COM, the group played a "slow but steady" set which saw frontman Jim Reid ask the crowd "happy we're back?". After the crowd cheered, he simply told them to "fuck off" and looked at his drummer.
