‘America’s Got Talent’ 2016 update: Mel B stands out with see-through, backless jumpsuit

Hopefuls are not the only ones preparing for the resumption of “America’s Got Talent” season 11. Even the judges make the effort to shine and attract the spotlight, particularly Melanie “Mel B” Brown, who sported a stunning see-through jumpsuit on her return to the live shows in Hollywood.

The British singer and mother-of-three showed off her sculpted figure with a sparkling silver jumpsuit designed by Kuwait-based couturier Yousef Al Jasmi. She wore her hair in a high ponytail and paired the outfit with a pair of Saint Laurent boots.

In sharing her look for the third AGT live show on social media, the Spice Girls member said it took her inner strength and class to complement the style.

“A girl needs two things, inner strength and class. But you gotta go, throw a whole heap of shit to get it, but it's worth it!!! Even when the sun isn't out, you gotta shine bright. You are your own spotlight and the director of your own movie,” Mel B captioned her Instagram photo.

Also known as Scary Spice, Mel B posted a selfie she took with fellow AGT judge Howie Mandel as the two showed up at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood together with Simon Cowell and Heidi Klum.

The 12 remaining contestants would compete for the last seven spots in the semifinals of the NBC top-rated talent show. From the top 36 acts, only 21 will compete on the semifinals round.

The 12 acts that will be competing for the last seven spots on AGT semifinals round include 12-year-old singer-songwriter Grace VanderWaal, Argentinian male dance group Malevo, acapella singers Linkin Bridge, 52-year-old contortionist Vello Vaher, duo jugglers The Passing Zone, family band Edgar, 10-year-old magician Kadan Bart Rockett, 63-year-old comedian Julia Scotti, singer Ronee, mom-and-son dance duo Alla and Daniel, 27-year-old magician Blake Vogt, and 28-year-old singer Brian Justin Crum.

Meanwhile, the 14 semifinalists are singers Sal Valentinetti, Kadie Lynn, Calysta Bevier, Jayna Brown and Laura Bretan; magicians Jon Dorenbos, Thommy and Amelie of the mentalist couple The Clairvoyants, and Rubik’s cube genious Steven Brundage; performers Tape Face, juggler Viktor Kee, teen contortionist Sofie Dossi, stage comedian Lori Mae Hernandez and stunt couple Deadly Games; and choir group Musicality. Hopefuls are vying for the US$1 million (AU$1.3 million) prize on NBC's top-rated talent show.

Airing of AGT’s third live show was postponed for two weeks due to NBC’s live coverage of the 15-day 2016 Olympic Games from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
