What new boyband is Geri Horner a huge fan of? – Music News

Geri Horner is a huge fan of December 10.

The Spice Girls star stopped by a rehearsal studio where Simon Cowell’s latest boyband – comprised of Nicolas Alves, Cruz Lee-Ojo, Hendrik Christoffersen, John Fadare, Danny Bretherton, Josh Olliver, and Seán Hayden – were working last month and gave them some advice on storming the charts.

Danny told The Sun’s Biz on Sunday: “The legend that is Geri Halliwell and her step-daughter came to the rehearsal studio to watch our set. They had wanted to come to our London show, but were due to be away when it was on, so we invited them to our rehearsals. Geri was like a pocket rocket. Petite and loads of personality. We couldn’t believe we met a Spice Girl! She gave excellent advice, including to always enjoy the moment. Geri was super kind and gave us all a bag of gifts, including little speakers we always use on our phones.”

Sean added: “She showed up to rehearsals before the show and gave us advice. She’s really cool.”

And Hendrik said: “The advice that she gave was, ‘That laugh that you have in your band as a group – try and keep that laugh and enjoy it’. That was the main advice that came across.”

The band were formed on Cowell’s Netflix reality series, Simon Cowell: The Next Act, last year and they revealed he was so proud of them after their sold-out show at the O2 Academy Islington, in North London, last month, which he attended with his fiancée Lauren Silverman.

Nicolas said: “He really enjoyed that we incorporated instruments into the live show, and when he spoke to us, that was one of the main things that made him really happy and proud.”

John added: “He has also always said that he just wants great songs. Over the past few months that we have been recording music, we have been working towards that.”

The band recently released their single Angel and admitted their lives have changed considerably since the Netflix series.

Nicolas said: “I wouldn’t say it’s overwhelming, it’s more of a strange feeling, because the first show was a bit of a shock.

“It is a feeling for me, personally, that I don’t think I will get used to.”
