BROWN SEEKING TOP LAWYERS

LATEST: Former SPICE GIRL MELANIE BROWN spent yesterday (07DEC06) locked in meetings with top Hollywood lawyers, following ex-boyfriend EDDIE MURPHY's claims her unborn child may not be his. The WANNABE singer was seen consulting with several legal teams as she decides which lawyer is best to represent her in what promises to be a high profile fall out following the BEVERLY HILLS COP actor's appearance on Dutch TV on Tuesday (05DEC06), where he announced the couple were no longer dating. He also demanded a DNA test when the singer gives birth. She fumed in a statement, "I am obviously upset and distressed at some of the comments made by Eddie Murphy to the media. "I have no idea why anybody would want to conduct themselves in this kind of manner about such a personal matter in such a public way. "My main concern is for the well being of my daughter PHOENIX and of course the baby. I was astonished about what Eddie said - there is absolutely no question that Eddie is the father."
