A former topless model, Geri Halliwell was an original member of the pop group The Spice Girls. (Her nickname was Ginger Spice, though she was also called Sexy Spice.) The all-female quintet was a worldwide sensation in the late 1990s, with songs like the chart-topping "Wannabe" and a 1997 movie, SpiceWorld. Halliwell left the group abruptly in May of 1998 and began a successful solo career. Her 1999 album Schizo-Phonic included the hit singles "Look at Me" and "Lift Me Up." In 2001 she released her second album, Scream If You Wanna Go Faster.
