Geri Halliwell And Rolex Day Date ; A Little Bit Of Spice
If music is what sets your feet tapping then you wouldn’t mind a little flavour added to it. Geri Halliwell is the spice that added the much loved ginger flavour to the Spice Girls music and her contribution is irreplaceable because it is only a perfect blend of spices that brings out the best in the food. Similarly, the ginger coloured Rolex Day Date is the watch that you couldn’t give a miss because your wardrobe would be incomplete without its natural zing.
Geri set off her singing career with the Spice Girls and her red hair led her to be known as Ginger Spice. Creative differences made Spice leave the band and move on to charting a solo career. Halliwell starred in a documentary based on her called Geri for Channel 4 that was directed by Molly Dineen. Geri’s first music album was called Schizophonic which notched no. 42 spot on the Billboard 200 and went on to sell 3.5 million copies worldwide and the album also got a gold certification.
Geri’s second album Scream If You Wanna Go Faster was released in 2001, which included the cover version of the hit song “It’s Raining Men”. The song featured as a part of the OST of the Bridget Jones’s Diary film. She received the International Song of the Year award at the 2002 NRJ Music Awards. In the meanwhile Halliwell also released two autobiographies based on her life experiences named If Only in 1999 and Just for the Record in 2003. The books drove on the kind of success that was generated by tabloid papers and acquired an instant readership. In 2002, Haliwell served as a co-judge on the popular series Popstars: The Rivals, which was also the creator of Girls Aloud and made appearances on Sex and the City and a film The Fat Slags that was based on characters from the Viz Magazine.
Geri was writing music all along, and recording for her third album Passion when she was asked to shoot for another documentary There’s Something About Geri. In late 2004 her single Ride It rode to no.4 on the UK charts and was a hit with those who liked to groove to her music. On 30th May, 2005 a new single called “Desire” released and reached no.22 in the UK Singles Chart and topped the UK Dance chart. Her album Passion has recently been released in the US.
Spice could never stay away for too long from the band that she had broken up with and in June 2007 Halliwell announced that she was regrouping with the former band members for the “Return of the Spice Girls”. Geri was slated to perform solo and sing her most celebrated hit “It’s Raining Men”.
Geri is also a prolific writer and in 2007 she signed a six book deal with Macmillan Children’s Books. Halliwell has developed her characters based on her celebrity friends and her books having met with success Geri has stalled her music career for the time being. Geri’s daughter Bluebell was born in May 2006 and Geri has also become a successful mother along with being a successful superstar.
The Rolex Day Date is a chronometer with a calendar mechanism displaying the day and the date in 26 languages. Set with diamonds and beautiful ginger yellow gold has a bezel set with brilliance. The eye catching dial is in brilliant silver set with more diamonds. The self wound watch is like the singer that is best suits Geri Halliwell because they are the most essential flavours of a tasteful palette.
