No Rock And Roll Fun

LOOK AT ME: Somehow, we don't think that the movie world is going to be quite so appalled by Geri Halliwell refusing to do promo work for Fat Slags - The Movie alongside former shag-partner Jerry "You might recall me from Kangaroo Jack" O'Connell as we're lead to believe - mainly because we'd imagine that anyone in the film business who doesn't think of this as anything more than Easycinema fodder probably doesn't have any job much above sweeping the set; but also because Geri's not actually playing one of the Fat Slags, on the grounds that they'd just never be able to guarantee one half of the role's requirements on a day-by-day basis. She's merely in a supporting role - as is Naomi Campbell, which gives you an idea of the sort of quality we're looking at here. There's also a character called "Hysterical UN Woman." It does have Fiona Allen in, but isn't that the way with British films? It's like they cast on the grounds of finding someone talented to hold hostage.

Anyway, Geri and Jerry split because she though he had a immature sense of humour. That's the thing about Geri: she likes her men smart, as this file photo shows:



In other Spice Girl news, it's being rumoured that they've found a way to persuade Mel C to change her mind on the question of a reunion - Virgin are threatening to force the band to buy out their contract if they don't get back together. Which - if true - could mean Mel C having to find two million quid to keep from going back home.
