Geri to add touch of spice as stand-in X Factor judge

FORMER Spice Girl Geri Halliwell is stepping in as a guest judge on The X Factor.

The 37-year-old singer is understood to be standing in for pregnant Dannii Minogue at auditions in Glasgow later today.

Halliwell was previously a judge on Popstars: The Rivals, which discovered X Factor judge Cheryl Cole and her Girls Aloud bandmates. It is thought that the former Spice Girl will stay for just one day of auditions but could return in the future.
