 Mel B. is slated to win this season's Dancing With the Stars, according to BBC NEWS. DialIdol, the online voting tracker that measures busy signals to predict who viewers are voting off, also seems to indicate a Mel/Maksim victory. And it has been very accurate in predicting eliminations in recent weeks. Go Mel! It's funny how DWTS can do wonders for a star's reputation. After all, Mel had been dragged through the mud with her paternity suit against Eddie Murphy and accusations about her husband Stephen Belafonte. But there she is, week after week, putting in sizzling performances and coming off as engaging, warm-hearted, and playful. Even if she doesn't take home that enormous trophy, she's already won in every way that matters.
