BiographyGeraldine Estelle Halliwell-Horner (née Halliwell; born 6 August 1972) is an English singer, songwriter, television personality, author, and actress. She rose to fame in the mid-1990s as a member of the pop group the Spice Girls, in which she was nicknamed Ginger Spice. With over 100 million records sold worldwide, the Spice Girls are the best-selling female group of all time. Their slogan "girl power" was most closely associated with Halliwell and her Union Jack dress from the 1997 Brit Awards also became an enduring symbol. Halliwell left the Spice Girls in 1998, citing exhaustion and creative differences, but rejoined when they reunited for a greatest hits album (2007) and two concert tours: the Return of the Spice Girls (2007–2008) and Spice World (2019).

After leaving the Spice Girls, Halliwell pursued a career as a solo artist, signing a recording contract with EMI. She released her debut album, Schizophonic (1999), which produced the UK number-one singles "Mi Chico Latino", "Lift Me Up" and "Bag It Up"; the lead single, "Look at Me", reached number two. Her second album, Scream If You Wanna Go Faster (2001), was preceded by the lead single, "It's Raining Men" and earned her a Brit Award nomination. Following the release of third album, Passion (2005), and the UK top-five single "Ride It". Halliwell's recording contract with EMI was not renewed and she stated that she was not interested in recording another album. In 2013, Halliwell returned to the music industry in Australia with the release of her first solo single in eight years, "Half of Me".

Halliwell has served as a judge on television talent shows, including Popstars: The Rivals (2002), The X Factor UK (2010, 2012), and Australia's Got Talent (2013). She has appeared in the films Spice World (1997), Crank: High Voltage (2009), and Gran Turismo (2023). As an author, Halliwell has released two autobiographies: If Only (1999) and Just for the Record (2002); the children's book series Ugenia Lavender (2008), and the young adult novel series Rosie Frost (2023–present).
