WOW! Can you imagine? Spice Girl Geri Halliwell has been named 2008’s best selling children’s author. Ugenia Lavender has taken off and sold over 250,000 copies in the UK. The book is based on the antics of a feisty nine year old. Guess a ton of people can relate.

And not only has Halliwell seen massive sales, she has also been named the most successful celebrity author in recent years, according to British retailer WHSmith.

"I’m so happy that everyone loves Ugenia as much as I do."

But the star isn’t stopping at writing short stories - she announced earlier this week that she had penned her first film screenplay. Geri sure knows how to keep busy. Good for her!

Let's Talk Celebrity Hair Color

The winter months are slowly creeping up on us which means celebrities will begin to tone down the blonde and go with richer, darker colors. Rumer Willis hinted she was going red at Teen Vogue's Young Hollywood partywhen she showed off a new short do. But yesterday, she went all the way with Ashlee Simpson/ Wynonna Judd red extensions and color job. Meanwhile, Geri Halliwell surprised us all with the loss of red at her book signing for "Ugenia Lavender" at Harrod's.

What do you think about the new looks? Love them or hate them?And is going darker something you do for this season as well?

Geri Halliwell Is Back To Acting

Even though her extensive acting experience consists mostly of playing herself in the Spice Girls movie, Geri Halliwell is going to give the big screen another go. She just filming filming an appearance in Crank 2 opposite Jason Statham.

She said,

"I have just filmed a small part in the movie Crank 2. I play a chavvy (low-class) mother with a blacked out tooth and look like trailer trash. I'm trying to do things that I enjoy, that test my character and which are joyful, creative and funny."

And Geri also recently spoke out saying she's lost her faith in marriage.

"I've lost my faith in marriage. Most of my generation, their parents are divorced, as are mine and I see so many people break up. As for my idealisation of what a relationship should look like, that has vanished. I don't see many couples or marriages I can use as a compass point. Not many people stick it out any more. I have learnt to cope by myself."

But that doesn't mean a sister or brother for little Bluebell wouldn't be nice. :)

"I guess I have become a little cynical but I would like more children."

Geri Halliwell Threatened By A Stalker

Scary! I hate hearing about these celeb stalker stories...especially when they involve children. :( Geri Halliwell was attending the Glamour Awards when woman stalking her somehow managed to get past security guards.

Geri Halliwell's night at the Glamour Awards was marred when a woman hurled abuse and threats about her and her baby daughter.

According to The London Paper the woman posed as a competition winner to gain entry to the celebrity event in London's Berkeley Square.

However security guards were on the scene within minutes and the woman was later escorted from the venue by police.

Although it was a pretty minor event, thank goodness no one was hurt! I know we sometimes laugh at how it seems like some celebs have more security than the president himself, but it's cases like these that make that necessary.

Geri Halliwell Leaving Cipriani Restaurant

One of my favorite celebrities Geri Halliwell was photographed leaving the Cipriani Restaurant in London wearing a beautiful white dress and gold pumps. Geri tripped over a photographers hat and ended up losing her shoe. She took it all in stride simply putting her shoe back on and laughing. Anyone else want to put Geri in their pocket?

Geri Halliwell In Brent Cross

Geri Halliwell was in Brent Cross, London to sign more copies of her new book, Ugenia Lavender at WH Smiths this past weekend. Once again she manages to make, what I would think an odd combination of clothing, work. What is it about her? Maybe because she's cheerful and always smiling. :)

Geri Halliwell Doesn't Care If Daughter Becomes "Goth Lesbian"

Vera — Fri, 09 May 2008 15:40:34 -0400

Geri Halliwell says she's going to be a relaxed mom and that no matter which direction her daughter, Bluebell Madonna's life goes in, that she'll stand by her.

"If she turns out to be a goth lesbian who works in dental surgery then that's OK."

She's never going to censor her.

"I'll be absolutely honest with her and not judge her. But equally I'll empower her with education and that's all we can do. The more we censure somebody, the more they're likely to act out. It's about giving boundaries and we all need boundaries. After that I think she'll be a smart enough girl to make her own choices."

Some parents seem to hope that their kids will fit a very specific mold, or even more common...hope they'll become just like mom and dad. I think it's hard for kids to live up to the expectations that their parents hold sometimes.

Love It Or Hate It: Geri Halliwell

Geri Halliwell enjoyed a sunny day in London shopping and running a few errands. I loved the outfit from afar until I looked closer and realized that she's wearing high waisted, pleated floral shorts, NOT a skirt. Somehow though, I think she manages to pull it off. What do you all think?
