Geri rude! - June 04
Geri snubbed the public at Wimbledon press event.
The singer who attended the event as a guest of Blue’s Duncan James sat with arms crossed crying after Dunc to "come on, come on!" as the chap indulged in a spot of tennis with fans in the KidZone, which has been set up to encourage children to take up tennis. The pair, who still deny they are a couple had tickets for the Henman v Phillipoussis game.

Geri has surgery - April 04

The singer had two ’nodules’ removed from her throat in a potentially dangerous operation which fortunately has been successful. The growths which are quite common amongst singers could have ruined her singing career if they had not been removed. Geri was told by her doctor that there was no way she could have carried on recording her new album without the operation.
The perils of dieting - 28/05/03
Geri Halliwell has come to her senses and has admitted that her famously obsessive diet and fitness regime ruined her health.

In the 1990s Geri became one fifth of the worlds biggest girl band and has never looked back. Along with Mel B, Emma, Mel C and Victoria, she scored some of the biggest hits of the decade, made a feature film and raked in the cash through sponsorship deals. But in May ’98 Geri made the shock announcement that she was to leave the band to persue a solo career.
She sold her Spice clothes to raise more than $200,000 for a cancer charity, journeyed to Uganda for Comic Relief, was appointed a Goodwill Ambassador by the United Nations, and even got to sing "Happy Birthday" to the future king of England, Prince Charles.
Nearly a year after her departure from the Spice Girls, Halliwell released her debut solo album, Schizophonic, whose sound is a self-described cross between "Julie Andrews and Johnny Rotten." The album, released on Capitol Records, contained Halliwell’s first single, "Look at Me." which went to number 2 in the charts. She followed up the success of Schizophonic with Scream If You Want To Go Faster in 2001. After going solo, Geri moved to LA, formed an unlikely close relationship with George Michael and told all to the press about her eating disorders after losing an incredible amount of weight and releasing two yoga videos.
Geri is now back in the UK, working on new material and a reality TV show which will follow the format of The Osbournes. She’s also back to her old busty ginger self!
