Geri Halliwell: I tried it on with George Michael

Spice Girl Geri Halliwell has admitted she had a go at seducing George Michael the first time they met. The singer had even fantasised about marrying the ‘Careless Whisper’ as a youngster.

Speaking to The Sun newspaper she said: “I’m totally off. My gaydar is useless – well it’s better these days.

“With George Michael years ago I’d made plans to marry him, I used to practise kissing with his poster.

“Then we met and I started being all flirty eyes, licking my lips and the sexy poses and I just felt there was nothing coming back.

“Then I was chatting on the phone to him and he starts talking about his boyfriend and I’m like ‘what? How could I be so wrong’!”

Despite the initial misunderstanding, the pair have become very close friends, and Halliwell even considers Michael a confidante.

She said: “You know he’s the only celebrity friend I have, aside from the Spice Girls, that I tell all my secrets to.

“I have long chats with him, he’s like a brother. In the past I’ve played my music to him and sometimes he’d tell me it’s s*** and other times it’s great.”
