Mel B joined a host of stars at The Beauty Awards in London on Monday.
The Spice Girl turned heads as she hit the pink carpet with her beloved Yorkshire Terrier Cookie, whose fur was dyed pink for the occasion.
Mel came under fire last year for choosing to dye Cookie’s hair but seemingly brushed off past backlash to recreate the look once more for the beauty themed ceremony.
Scary Spice rocked a black blazer dress which had a plunging neckline and thigh-skimming hemline as she joined the likes of Kerry Katona, Emily Andre and Love Island stars at the event.
Mel teamed the look with platform boots, while Cookie wore a leopard print jumper.
The singer’s husband Rory McPhee attended the ceremony but didn’t walk the pink carpet.

During the photo session, Mel appeared to have a bit of trouble with an overexcited Cookie and so decided to scoop the pooch up in her arms.
After the ceremony, Mel opted for comfort and changed her outfit.
The star was pictured leaving the venue in a pink hoodie and joggers, with a leopard print blanket wrapped around her for warmth.
In April last year, Mel was criticised by fans after she dyed Cookie bright pink for a dog ‘spa day’.
The comment section was flooded with followers who urged Mel to just let dogs ‘be themselves’ rather than changing their fur colour.
Mel captioned the post: ‘Cookie spa day, You know I take Cookie everywhere with me. We always have a good time getting all the beauty treatments.’
But fans weren’t impressed by the colour change as they blasted: ‘nooooo let dogs and animals be themselves! Their coats are gorgeous colours and don’t need dye to show them off’ (sic).
Others said: ‘Nope!’ and ‘Has she got pink hair?’

‘So your Cookie is pink?’.
Scary Spice has a close bond with her beloved Yorkshire Terrier and previously joked she was ‘easier’ to handle than Victoria Beckham.
Speaking during her Brutally Honest & Fabulous show in 2019, she said: ‘So Cookie joined us on tour.
‘I didn’t even want this dog, to be honest, because my friend bought it for my family for Christmas.
‘But I fell in love with her and now she comes everywhere with me.
‘She’s easier than Victoria to handle – and cheaper.’
