Halliwell: 'O'connell Was A Mistake'

Former SPICE GIRL Geri Halliwell has broken her silence on her short-lived relationship with Hollywood actor Jerry O'connell.

The 32-year-old singer met O'Connell while filming forthcoming movie FAT SLAGS in London last year (03), before the pair went their separate ways after returning to Los Angeles.

However, KANGAROO JACK star O'Connell was less than complimentary about their split when he recently said, "It was nice to have a tour guide who knows where they are going in London."

But Halliwell puts the brief nature of their encounter down to not being right for each other.

She says, "He was a great guy, but (we were) not compatible. Sometimes we have to try on wool before we get cashmere."
