Mel B has shared the first picture of the new X Factor panel on her Instagram.
“1st Audition day In Manchester whoop whoop,” the artist sometimes still known as Scary Spice wrote in the accompanying caption.
Today (June 16) marked the first day of auditions for the upcoming eleventh series of The X Factor, in which panel mainstay Louis Walsh will be joined by returning judges Cheryl Cole and Simon Cowell, who have not appeared on the UK edition of the show since 2010.
Mel B, who previously served as a guest judge at the auditions in Manchester in 2012, was confirmed as the fourth judge last Wednesday (June 11).
