Professor Green has been announced as the co-host of Lip Sync Battle UK alongside former Spice Girl Melanie Brown.

The rapper commented 'When the chance to work with Mel B came up the answer was obviously a yes. I'm working with a f***ing Spice Girl! The fact I'd be her co-host on Lip Sync Battle was also exciting. Jokes aside I'm very excited about filming the first series - having spent a good while on YouTube watching the US show I'm looking forward to seeing what our guests bring to the table!'. The show premieres on Channel 5 in January.
