Scary Spice: Eddie Murphy Is My Baby Daddy!

Scary SpiceScary Spice has "no doubt" that her newborn dreamgirl, Angel Iris, is Eddie Murphy's baby!

Melanie B. tells OK! magazine that she has no problem with the "Daddy Day Care" star taking a DNA test -- and wants him to "step up to the plate and be responsible." Murphy has publicly questioned the paternity of the golden child.

The former Spice Girl says she and Eddie were "madly in love" and that she was blindsided by their breakup -- which Melanie found out from a friend! As far as feeling embarrassed for being dumped so publicly, Melanie says, "I don't feel humiliated, I think the only person who has humiliated themselves is Eddie." Now why did she have to go and bring up "Norbit?!"

If her claims are true, Eddie's behavior towards Melanie seems especially troubling, considering what a Good Samaritan the Oscar-nominated star usually is. In 1997, Murphy famously helped his fellow man by giving a ride to a transsexual prostitute.

31. 25. What do you mean "born without a father?" Of course Angel has a father and he earns more in a day than you probably earn in a year. Either way, the child will be well cared for.

34. Even if she didn't take the pill - wouldn't you as a man, especially if you have 5+ children, insist on wearing a condom? I know many women that don't take the pill for personal reasons. In what law book does it state that women must use hormonal contreceptives?

If a man doesn't make sure where his sperm is going, then what the hell do ya'll think is gonna happen? Nothing can protect you from STDs except condoms. Not even that little "Certificate of Cleanliness" I'm sure he showed her.

Eddie's a nasty one. We all know that. But in this case I must admit that Mel B is a nasty one too for sexin Eddie raw. 1) AIDS is not a joke. 2) Transvestites neither. If I knew that a man had anything sexually to do with a transvestite I wouldn't touch him with a 10 yard long stick.

I have to say Tracy Edmonds takes home a gigantic "L" for this one. How do you go from Babyface to Eddie Murphy? Wtf? Any normal intelligent woman would have broken up with him after hearing that he got that poor woman pregnant. Hell, any normal intelligent woman with a healthy feeling of self-worth would have never gotten together with him after hearing the transi-gate.

God bless his ex-wife for how strong she stayed for her children.

35. Maybe Eddie is not claiming the baby,becuz Scarry Spice, is a has been and he's ashamed! He is now dating Tracy Edmuds(Babyfaces ex-wife) Just last year, there were rumors going around that Eddie was sleeping with Johnny Gill, so go figure!!

36. I've loved Eddie well because he looks so much like my father..... he's not though! I am disappointed by the way he handled the situation.What goes around comes around Eddie. Do not play with people's emotions and body besides even if you were looking for some quick nooky afer your divorce always remember that whenever two people have sex the result can go either way. You can get an STD or the woman may become pregnant.If you never loved Melanie at least be good to the innocent child. No child wants to know that they were never loved especially by their fathers. I would not want to see another Virginia Tech scene only this time it could be your offspring. Love your child!

38. A LITTLE KNOW FACT THAT I WISH SOMEONE AT TMZ.....WOULD RESEARCH FURTHER, REGARDING THE EDDIE MURPHY TRANSEXUAL PROSTITUTE..HE WAS EVENTUALLY FOUND " D E A D " !! A STORY REGARDING HIS DEATH WAS PUBLISHED IN THE "FRONTIERS" GAY MAGAZINE. It wasin very small print and I bet most people didnt read the article. At the time the story was written his death was suppossedly due to an overdose or he committed suicide.?? I remember thinking how bizarre no media aired the story or the circumstances of the transexuals seemd suspicious??

39. Majority of you all are going to feel so dumb when the test says, "99% you are not the father."

40. Apart from unsafe sex, we don't really know what went on here:-

Was she playing him for his money? Not sure about that, she has plenty of her own.

Did she want a child with him, he didn't? Maybe the case, she wouldn't be the first or the last.

Is she playing it straight, is she sure it's his? If she had a doubt I don't think she would be touting this story to the press.

A test will solve all arguments. If he refuses to take it, that will say everything.

I think Mel B is after his recognition of the child. It's a pride thing, and also, she probably thinks it is in the little girl's best interests.

I've seen it reported that she's named him as father on the birth certificate. I don't think that is true. In English law, if you're not married, the father has to give his permission to be named, normally by being present when you sign the certificate. Whether you're married or not, you can give your child whatever name you like, Elvis Presley Jr if you feel like it. But that doesn't mean you've named the father. Calling the child Murphy doesn't put any obligation on his part.

The Spice Girls and loud mouthed Mel B in particular have always irritated me, but I think she is bang on when she says (not in these exact words) that someone has managed to make themselves look like a complete wanker here, and it's not her.

41. If Murphy has nothing to hide, he will take the test, its that simple. This man is a baby making machine, so its quite possible.

He is probably with Baby-faces es, becasue she has money. I am sure after he pays Nicole her alimony and child support for their 5 kids, he doesnt have as much as people think. Now, he will be paying for a sixth child.

Eddie keep it zipped.

42. The baby looks like Eddie. Usually you can't tell by looks alone, but this baby really looks like him. Just a coincidence? Hmmm.

43. I was Melanie's personal trainer last summer right before she got pregnant. I was training her at Eddie's house,and got to see those two how crazy they where about each other,and that was Eddie's idea to try to have a baby. They even got each other names tattooed on they lower back. But it all came crashing down very fast. They just rushed into it too fast. But I think Eddie is a coward. Be a man and stand behind your actions!!

44. It wasn't too long ago that a woman having a child out of wedlock was a source of shame not pride to be splashed across the papers. I wouldn't be so smiley in front of the camera, ms. pop has-been. Maybe you could get a real job and stop trying to do a Maury. Meanwhile, Eddie, who should have known better, is fulfiling his fear that he had when he did the comedy routine for RAW. If I didn't know better, I see dollar signs in Mel's eyes.

Poor innocent baby -- that's the true victim.

45. I REALLY LIKED EDDIE, THIS IS TOO BAD. HE'S AN IDIOT... HE KNOWS THAT BABY IS HIS !! AND IF HE REALLY HAD HIS DOUBTS HE SHOULD HAVE NEVER TRASHED HER LIKE THAT ON T.V. HE SHOULD OF STAYED CLASSY. I THINK ALOT OF PEOPLE LOST RESPECT FOR HIM, I KNOW I DID/
