Melanie Brown and Stephen Belafonte renewed their vows for a second time in front of family, friends, and a whole lotta cameras in Egypt over the weekend. Expect a full spread of the event next week in the rags as this even brought in some hard cash for the couple.
Selling the exclusive rights to the ceremony and reception, it is rumored that Melanie took home close to $400,000!! Guest will see no part of the cash but did have to sign an 11 page contract promising not to sue if they see their faces plastered all over OK! Magazine.

Melanie Brown Attends The Mobo Awards
Melanie Brown, Jessie Metcalfe, Keisha Buchanan, Amelle Berrabah and Heidi Range (of the Sugababes)
each attended the 2008 Mobo Awards.
Hellllooooo Melanie!
Suddenly I have to urge to watch a little Grace Jones! I give her credit for trying something new. Not many people are fashion risk takers and I applaud that aspect of the look.
And every single time I see Jesse, I get a little mesmorized by his beauty. I mean, the guy is really PRETTY!

Melanie Brown Hates Working Out, Pink Loves It
Melanie Brown seems like the very athletic kind of girl who would love exercising. After all, she is releasing a fitness video next year and she also did Dancing With the Stars, which we know is a great workout since everyone who goes on the show loses weight! She might be super toned and have an amazing body, but she's admitted that she struggles with her workouts.
"I just think I am a real person - my workout is realistic. I
moan all the way through it. I complain a lot. Who actually enjoys a
workout fully without a good old moan?"
But, Pink feels the opposite. Exercising keeps her happy even when the press is getting her down.
"I'm the same as anybody
else. I have days when I don't think I look so great, especially when I
have all eyes on me.Not so long ago, there was a paparazzi picture of me walking my dogs
with the headline, 'A chubby Pink walking her dogs.' You'd never go up
to somebody in the street and tell them they're fat, so how can people get away with being so hurtful in print?"
Going to the gym helps her stay positive.
"I had to laugh about it. There are more important things in life and I've learnt to be happy with my shape. For me working outis the best anti-depressant in the world."
Where do you feel on the spectrum? Are you a lover or a hater when it comes to working out?
...I think it's pretty well documented how I feel on the subject. :P

Melanie Brown Says No To Playboy
I'm not so sure why Playboy would think that Melanie Brown would need to do a spread in their magazine. I think it is safe to safe she is pretty much established in the industry and doesn't need any additional press. Nevertheless, it doesn't hurt to ask right?
The infamous magazine made an offer, but Melanie rejected it hands down. While the former Spice Girl is an admitted exhibitionist, Melanies says she leaves that for the bedroom and hubby Stephen Belafonte.
"No, I’m not going to do it. There is (an exhibitionist side to me) - in my bedroom, late at night for hours on end!"
More Details Available About Melanie Brown's Second Wedding To Stephen Belafonte
In August, INO reported that Melanie Brown was planning a second wedding to Stephen Belafonte in order to sell the pictures and make some extra cash all thanks to a popular rag. Originally it was estimated that the Spice Girl would receive $400,000 for the exclusive shots.
New details have just been released and it turns out the couple plans on renewing their vows in Egypt later on this year. Melanie sent out "an 11-page invite" to friends, a source said. "It was very ornate and detailed."
Page Six is reporting that there is a clause in the invite saying guests must agree to have their picture taken and understand those pictures will be sold.
According to our source, the last page of the invite notes, "Everyone has to sign an agreement to be photographed and videotaped. Mel is going to be selling the pictures to a magazine for as high a price as she can get."
If you were Melanie's celebrity friend (aka Victoria Beckham, Geri Halliwell etc) would you go to this event knowing it's really all about the money?
