Speaking to hosts Jon Kay and Sarah Campbell, Mel said that narrating for the children’s animated TV series wasn’t easy due to her dyslexia, which she was diagnosed with ‘later in life’.

She said: ‘I also got to challenge myself because I got diagnosed with dyslexia later on in life, so I got to sit there, read a script and time it with the characters.

‘It took me a few times because now I’ve actually recorded 60 episodes. So my first few episodes it was very difficult and very challenging.

‘But the more I did it, the more I got used to it and the more I enjoyed it. And I just think don’t let anything like dyslexia hold you back.

‘There are challenges that you can go through, but you can strive and make yourself better and better, and that’s what I did’.

Mel also added that taking part in Bear Grylls’ new Netflix show Celebrity Bear Hunt had its own set of challenges.

Scary Spice described her experience in Costa Rica as the ‘Las Vegas of challenges’ and said it really pushed her out of her ‘comfort zone’.

She continued: ‘I love Bear Grylls. I’ve done his show before. I do find that you face your biggest fears and you really get out of your comfort zone, but this was a challenge. I mean, it was like the Las Vegas of challenges.’

The Netflix series, presented by Holly Willoughby, features British stars being hunted in a Central American jungle by survival expert Bear Grylls.

It comes after the singer revealed if any of her fellow Spice Girls would ever take on Celebrity Bear Hunt.

Speaking to MailOnline at the screening, she even dished on what pal Victoria would say to the show.

She formed the Spice Girls with Victoria, Geri Horner, Melanie C and Emma Bunton – but wasn’t sure if any of them would be brave enough to do the show.

The star said at the event: ‘None of them. None of them. They’ll be like, ‘ewwww’.

‘I thought I was going to be like that but I had to switch my mentality. Because you are in a jungle with strangers and you’re all sleeping side by side with each other not knowing how the day is going to start.

‘It is brilliant but it’s mental.

Asked if she thinks Victoria, 50, might sign up for series two, Mel B said: ‘You know what you can never say never.’
