MEL B. DEMANDS EDDIE STEP UP

Melanie Brown, aka "Scary Spice," and her lawyer Gloria Allred stepped out for a press conference today accusing Eddie Murphy of not doing "the right thing" in regard to Brown's baby.



Allred claims that Murphy "has not paid one penny of child support" for the former couple's daughter, said she plans to ask the court to award child support and "to decide what is reasonable." Allred said she's filed a paternity suit against Murphy to legally establish that he is the father of their nearly 4-month-old daughter, Angel Iris Murphy Brown. "We've had communication with his attorney, and now we're moving forward."

"Murphy was promising to do the right thing, but to date he has not done the right thing," said Allred. "Mr. Murphy can have all the babies he chooses to have, but his responsibility needs to be to his own children. [Brown] is seeking sole physical and legal custody."

"He bought a big diamond ring for his new fianceé," added Allred, referring to Murphy's recent engagement to girlfriend Tracey Edmonds. "It is nice to be generous to others, but what about his own baby?"

Scary went on to add, "I am here for one reason and one reason only – her name is Angel. Angel is my baby and Eddie's. She will always know that she was planned and wanted by both of us, but I want her to know that she has two parents who desire to be responsible for her during her life and who love her so much that they want to be a part of it."

Scary....two words......GO GIRL!!!!!!! Wow! I love the fact that she is calling him on the carpet. It's absolutely ridiculous that he's out buying 8-carat rings when he hasn't paid a dime in child support.
