Mel B got miffed at Simon Cowell on America's Got Talent after he made a joke about her wedding night.

Before she threw a glass of water over him and stormed off, a disappointing magic act prompted Simon to tease Mel B, who is going through a divorce with husband Stephen Belafonte.

Hitting his buzzer at Demian Aditya, who did a dangerous escape act, Simon quipped: "I feel like this would be a lot like Mel's wedding night, a lot of anticipation... not much promise or delivery."

The former Spice Girl then chucked her water over Uncle Si, and stormed off. "Mel B is out," co-host Tyra Banks joked. "This is live TV, y'all. Live TV."

Obviously, she was joking, and returned to her seat to join a wet Simon.

Meanwhile, over the pond, Cowell and Emma Willis are teaming up for a music show on ITV this autumn that'll bring members of the public face-to-face with their musical heroes for a performance of a lifetime.

Your Song will be a one-off 60 minute special produced by Cowell's entertainment company Syco and Thames (part of FremantleMedia UK).

It will celebrate the lives of real people who have done something extraordinary by treating them to a performance from some of their favourite musical artists.

Willis, who will be hosting Your Song, said: "This is an amazing show to be a part of.

"Imagine seeing somebody you love, and who is so deserving of being surprised with the performance of a lifetime by their musical hero. I think there'll be plenty of tears, hugs and happiness."

Your Song will air on ITV later this year.
