She was a member of the pop group the Spice Girls, in which she was nicknamed Ginger Spice. With over 100 million records sold worldwide, the Spice Girls are the best-selling female group of all time.

Their slogan “girl power” was most closely associated with Halliwell, and her Union Jack dress from the 1997 Brit Awards also became an enduring symbol. Halliwell left the Spice Girls in 1998, citing exhaustion and creative differences, but rejoined when they reunited in 2007.

In 1999, she released her debut solo album, Schizophonic, which produced the UK number-one singles “Mi Chico Latino”, “Lift Me Up” and “Bag It Up”; the lead single, “Look at Me”, reached number two.

She released her second album, Scream If You Wanna Go Faster; the lead single, “It’s Raining Men”, reached number one in the UK. “Scream If You Wanna Go Faster” and “Calling” were also top-ten singles in 2001. 2005, her third album, Passion, was released in 2005 and produced the top-five single “Ride It”.

She was a judge on the television talent show Popstars: The Rivals in 2002.

In 2010 and 2012, she was a guest judge on the seventh and ninth series of the television singing competition The X Factor UK, and in 2013, she was a judge on the seventh series of the television talent show Australia’s Got Talent.

In September 2013, it was announced that Halliwell would return to the music industry in Australia with the release of her first solo single in eight years, “Half of Me”. She has also appeared in movies, including Spice World (1997), Crank: High Voltage (2009), and Gran Turismo (2023).
