Showing off her toned body in white two-piece bikini, Geri Halliwell graces the cover of this week's Hello! magazine.

Geri Halliwell has shown off her toned beach body on the cover of this week issue of British Hello! magazine. It's her first bikini photo shoot in seven years. But the Spice Girls' member confessed she gets a self-conscious about stripping down to her bikini in public.

Geri, whose weight has fluctuated over the years, told Hello!, "People think I'm really confident but I do get self-conscious like many women about stripping off in public. I haven't been willingly photographed in a bikini for seven years - and I don't think I'll do it again." Her bikini photo shoot is featured in latest issue of the magazine. "At the moment, I'm a bit curvier, having done the tour, so it was a big mental step forward for me to show my natural self, rather than my worked-out, honed self," she added.

"Obviously, I'm still vain, that's still in there. I wanted to look my best and I wore a bit of fake tan but what woman wouldn't if they're being honest?", the 36-year-old singer revealed to the publication. She also explained how she got back in shape, saying "I did strive to have my most perfect body and, in moments when I lack confidence, that voice is always there waiting to tell me, 'You are not good enough, do better,' but I'm more conscious of it."

"It used to be the loudest voice in my head but now I just tell it, 'Shut up...'," Geri stated, adding "I don't have a strict diet anymore. I eat cake, crisps, sugar-free chocolate and chips if I want to. I can't be bothered to follow a gruelling food plan. I'm a petite person and if I eat relatively healthily I'll stay that way. It's simple really. When I feel under pressure, I do eat cake but I don't punish myself for that like I used to. I just eat more healthily the next day."
