Geri Going Too Far?	August 25, 2007
Permalink | Discuss (0)
Geri Halliwell is overdoing her fitness training to get in shape for the Spice Girls' reunion tour. An old friend of hers who recently met up with her told the Daily Mirror (UK): "You could feel her bones sticking through. She's on the cusp. She looks good now but if she takes it any further, she's going to start to look ill. She's incredibly compulsive. The Spice Girls' reunion is a huge deal for her and she wants to look her very best for her moment back in the limelight. The problem is, Geri is a woman of extremes and she doesn't always know when to stop. She is a very disciplined person. She has regular vitamin injections to ensure her body is getting the right nutrients. She's a big fan of taking her own packed lunches with her. They will be carefully controlled, a certain amount of protein and carbohydrate. It will all be measured out and she'll stick to it rigidly. Her boobs are always the giveaway. Once they shrink, you know she's gone too far. Look closely at her collarbones too. She looks great at the moment. But, unfortunately, she doesn't always recognise when it's time to pull back. There are times when she takes it to the brink and then falls over the edge. Let's just hope it doesn't happen this time. We mustn't forget that ego plays a major part in all this. Geri loves Victoria, but she also envies her figure and Victoria is looking fabulous at the moment. Geri is always very determined to work on her figure when she knows she's got something to promote and this is her biggest career move in recent years. That old friendly rivalry with Victoria could well be in full swing again. That's what worries her friends the most." A source in Los Angeles adds: "Her bandmates have also noticed something might be wrong. The other girls are all a bit worried about Geri's behavior. She's always been one to take things to extremes and the way she's dealing with her pre-tour fitness regime is another example of her obsessive personality. Her mumsy, unflattering outfit at the reunion shoot was, most of them believe, a calculated move. She wasn't at what she considers her peak physical condition and she wanted to give everyone a big 'wow' photo when she unveils her perfect body on the first night of the tour."

$2 Million Greatest Hits Cover	August 23, 2007

There is a rather confusing story out saying that the greatest hits album cover was either made based off of a cover designed with actual jewels, or a replica of the greatest hits album cover has been made using actual jewels. Either way, some sort of actually jeweled, or designed/envisioned concept jeweled version of the greatest hits album is involved, and is valued at $2 million. The S is made from amber and represents Victoria. The P is made of pink ruby and represents Emma. The I is made of diamond and represents Mel C. The C is made of Saphhire and represents Geri. The E is made of Emerald and represents Mel B. A source says: "The album cover is a nice touch. They wanted something simple and stylish and it's probably one of the most expensive album covers ever made." If you have yet to see the cover, please click here! Source: SpiceNews

Geri's ITV Chatshow Cancelled	August 12, 2007

AN ITV scheme to make Geri Halliwell the new Cilla Black has been scrapped – because the Spice Girls have taken up all her time. Ginger Spice was in talks about making a primetime feelgood “people power” show. The programme would have seen the 35-year-old singer and mum-of-one hook up viewers who lack confidence with inspiring celebs. For example, someone who was worried about being overweight would get a surprise visit from Little Britain star Matt Lucas. But following the Spice Girls’ announcement that they are reforming, the plug has now been pulled on the project. An insider said: “ITV were keen on the show and Geri was in talks about it — but the reunion has now put the kibosh on the idea. Spice Girls boss Simon Fuller has big plans for Geri and sadly there’s no room to do this show.” We revealed how the girls are also making a major documentary to coincide with their world tour, which kicks off in December. ITV producers had approached Geri for the Cilla-style show as she is no stranger to personal crises. Her solo career was short-lived and she once became painfully thin. But she has fought back and is now a picture of health and mum to one-year old daughter Bluebell. Producers had thought she could fill the gap left by Cilla, who effectively quit TV in 2003. One said: “No one really does that sort of feelgood telly any more. Geri would have been good at it.” Source: The Sun
