Geri: still talking

Time now for Today in Halliwell, wherein we catch up with the arrant nonsense spouted by Dame Geraldine Estelle Halliwell in the interests of promoting her cretinous children's book.

Leading the pack today is London freesheet Metro, which inquires of the Ugenia Lavender author: "Can you identify with John Prescott? You're both high-profile bulimics."

I won't trouble you with her answer. Instead, we'll play out with the following:

Metro: "Each of the Ugenia stories has a moral. Do you have a philosophy for life?"

Geri: "The tips in the book are the ones that I believe in myself. Like 'feel the fear and feel better' or 'perfectionism kills art'. There are loads. 'What goes around comes around' is another ..."

What's the matter, readers? Are these not "philosophies"? Is Geri not the superwoman? In fact, can we just rename her book Also Sprach Halliwell and be frickin' DONE WITH THIS??
