The truth sets you free. It’s a very liberating thing when you say this is who I am warts and all and then you can just get on with life. It’s amazing.
Geri Halliwell
Happy Birthday, Ginger Spice! Geri Halliwell, (Ginger Spice), was born on August 6, 1972. She is an English recording artist, author, and philanthropist who gained fame as a member of The Spice Girls.
The band had the 1996 UK No.1 and the 1997 US No.1 single ‘Wannabe’, plus seven other No.1 singles. Halliwell left the group on 7th June 1998. Her first UK solo No.1 single was 1999 ‘Mi Chico Latino’.
Geri held the record for most Number 1s by a British female solo artist for an incredible 14 years – 13 years all by herself and one shared with Rita Ora. Her first single Look At Me narrowly missed the top spot, but she soon made up for it by slamming her next four singles straight in at the top – a consecutive run as yet unmatched. – Official Charts
