She may be used to fast cars and chauffeured limos.
But Mel B proved she doesn’t always need the VIP treatment on Wednesday when she went to pick up a rental car from Hertz in Darlinghurst, Sydney on Wednesday.
The Spice Girls star, 48, braced the city’s winter weather and dressed comfortably in a matching grey Lauren Moshi tracksuit set.
She channelled her inner Scary Spice by wearing a leopard-print trucker cap and opted for ultimate comfort in a pair of black ugg boots.
Accessorising with a beige $1,200 Gucci belt bag, the Masked Singer Australia judge kept a low profile with a pair of sunglasses while her hair was tied back in a fitted bun under her cap.

Mel chatted with two friends and smiled at a passersby, appearing to give a thumbs up gesture to a fan on the street.
The British popstar, whose full name is Melanie Brown, touched down in Sydney earlier this week ahead of filming the latest season of latest season of Masked Singer Australia.
She returns to the Channel 10 game show alongside Abbie Chatfield, Chrissie Swan, and Dave ‘Hughsey’ Hughes.
They will be tasked with the job of guessing what celebrities are singing beneath their masked characters.

Last year was Mel’s first time on the panel for the Australian entertainment show, and she quickly became a fan favourite.
It comes after Mel’s fellow judge Dave Hughsey shared an awkward text message exchange he had with her ahead of filming the new season.
Speaking to the Hughesy, Ed & Erin breakfast show on Wednesday, the comedian, 51, revealed that he’d received a brutal response from Mel, 48, after asking the former Spice Girl for advice about his facial hair on Tuesday.

During the exchange, Hughsey asked Mel whether or not he should ‘keep or lose the beard’, while sending her a photo of his unshaven face.
Mel, who had just arrived in Sydney after a long-haul flight from England, was in no mood for niceties, however.
Reading Mel’s response aloud, he said: ‘Umm, maybe. But more to the point, ask your wife not me – d**ckhead’.
‘That’s even better than ‘f-off’, his co-host Erin Molan joked.
She even appeared to give a thumbs up gesture to a fan on the street

Hughesy signed off the segment with a message directed at his frenemy, exclaiming: ‘Thank you Mel B, accurate as always’.
Hughesy lifted the lid on his love-hate friendship with Mel, who joined The Masked Singer Australia panel last year.
‘We’ve got a new panel. We’re actually already filming, and it’s hectic! Absolutely hectic. I tell you what – I know why Scary Spice is called Scary Spice,’ Hughsey said during an appearance on The Sunday Project in July.
‘I love her, and she knows it, but me and her have a relationship going. She told me to [f**k] off in our first meeting’.
When asked why the pair have a tendency to clash, Hughesy said they both have strong personalities.
‘Because I’ve got my own ideas and she has hers, and sometimes they clash. I love her though. And she knows I love her,’ he said.
The Masked Singer will return to Channel 10 later this year.
