>Geri Halliwell 2003

Geri's official site - www.geri-halliwell.com - has lately changed. In fact, a temporary page has been set up on which we can read "Geri Halliwell 2003". This probably means that Geri will definately be back in 2003! But, awaiting a brand new site's launching a link leading to the official forum has been put on the homepage.

>Here's one I made earlier ...

Geri Halliwell sported some trendy knitwear on a shopping trip in LA – soon after being seen in action with her needles. She strolled around wearing an orange crochet top – after apparently working on the sleeves earlier, knitting grey wool in her car. Geri has turned to knitting to relax. A pal said: “She loves to unwind by being let loose on a ball of wool. She’s just a beginner so she hasn’t been knitting jumpers. Vests are all she can manage.”

>Celebrity reptiles

IN the slippery showbiz game of snakes and ladders, how do you know when a celeb has something to promote? Answer: They resort to being pictured with reptiles. Geri Halliwell is just the latest star to go down the animal track to boost her image. Most favour snakes, but the former Spice Girl is pictured provocatively posing with an alligator on a leash for a magazine shoot. The pictures will appear in next month’s Cosmopolitan alongside Geri’s first major interview since putting on weight. The 30-year-old, who lives in George Michael’s LA pad and has battled the slimmer’s disease bulimia, bites back at critics of her new fuller figure. She says she loves her bigger boobs and is feeling sexier than ever. But the Watford-born star — who is also trying to promote her updated biography Just For The Record — admits that her new look has not helped her snap up Mr Right.

Admitting that her old, ultra skinny body was a mistake, Geri says: “I have food in my fridge today that I couldn’t allow into the house two years ago for fear of bingeing. There’s ice cream and peanut butter. “Hormonally my body is growing into a woman’s — I’m a late developer. My breasts are bigger. “I must admit I do feel sexier with a little bit more flesh to my bones.” But she adds: “I’ve been on so many dates and the same kind of person always keeps appearing. “They’re not available, or they’re flaky.”

Geri’s ’gator get-up may seem eccentric. But as we show on the right, the reptile ruse has been adopted by a long list of celebrities. They have all adder go at tipping the scales in their favour with a relaxed reptile for company. Some have lasted the course, for the rest it’s a case of see you later alligator.

>No Geri romance for Fred

Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst has hit out at reports that he is - or was - dating Skinny Spice, Geri Halliwell. While he has no worries about admitting they were pals, Durst, who's also been linked to Britney, is keen to reassure fans that there was no romance. "We hung out. We've been hiking together a couple of times," he told Q. "I met her on a TV show I was hosting and I though she was really funny. Really sweet. So we went up to Runyon Canyon a couple of times. We're just buddies. Not even close buddies. But I hear in the UK that they made a big deal of it. Plus [after Britney] it's another one of those popstars. People probably think, 'Whoa! Fred's on a roll! He's into popstars now!'" Limp Bizkit's new album is out later this summer.
