Geri Halliwell is to replace her former Spice Girls bandmate Mel B on the judging panel of ‘Australia’s Got Talent’. According to reports, Mel B is leaving to take up a similar role on the Australia version of ‘The X-Factor’.

Halliwell said of her new job “shows like that are brilliant and I love the opportunity they give to normal, everyday people – plus, I get to come to Australia”, while on her plans for judging style she added: “I think it’s unnecessary to be mean for the sake of being mean, but I do believe you have to be truthful, but with love”.
