Geri’s second album, ‘Scream If You Wanna Go Faster’ produced the worldwide Number One hit ‘It’s Raining Men’, which was featured in the 2001 film ‘Bridget Jones’s Dairy’. Geri’s third and final album ‘Passion’ was released in 2005. / In 2010 and 2012, Geri was a guest judge on the seventh and ninth series of The X Factor UK and was a judge on the seventh series of Australia’s Got Talent.
