GERI HALLIWELL

Towards the end of the 1998 European tour,

Geri Halliwell made a dramatic exit from the Spice Girls,

and she launched a solo music career.

Her critically acclaimed debut album,

Schizophonic was a massive success

and produced the number-one hits,

Mi Chico Latino, Lift Me Up and Bag It Up,

and a number-two hit with Look At Me.

She brought the 2000 Brit Awards to a standstill

with her characteristically flamboyant performance of Bag It Up.

Geri then had a huge number one hit

with Its Raining Men for the movie Bridget Jones's Diary.

She went on to release two more albums,

Passion and Scream If U Wanna Go Faster!

Geri has also released two best selling autobiographies

and two yoga videos

– so successful that they outsold Jane Fonda’s.

Geri acted in the Sex And The City TV series

and has appeared in a movie based on the cartoon Viz.

She is currently a UN Goodwill Ambassador,

promoting maternal health care for women,

a Patron for Breast Cancer Cares,

and Ambassador for The Prince's Trust.

Geri has just finished writing a series of six children's books

called Ugenia Lavender,

which are published by Macmillan in May 2008.

In May 2006, she became a mother to her daughter

BLUEBELL MADONNA,

who will of course be joining Geri on

The Return of the Spice Girls tour.
