Geri Halliwell struggles to hide her ample assets as she publicly strips off on a yacht in France

No one has ever been able to accuse Geri Halliwell of being the shy and retiring type.

Something which she proved to the world yesterday when she decided to strip off on a yacht in France.

While most people would discreetly retire to the lower deck and change their clothes away from prying eyes, the former Spice Girl decided to almost bare all in full public view.

Geri, 38, was snapped changing out of her blue bikini, one from her swimwear range for Next, on the back of a private yacht off the coast of the South of France.

With one hand clutching her breasts, she whipped the top off in one quick swoop, flashing a nipple in the process.

And she didn't seem to care about any of the crew watching as she then slipped into a animal print dress.

The singer had just come back from a water-skiing session and was changing out of her wet bikini before making a trip into the town of Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat.

She also appears to be following in the footsteps of her former Spice Girls bandmate Victoria Beckham after figuring out that the best way to advertise a clothing range is to wear it yourself.

She has been showcasing her incredible bikini body while on holiday in the south of France by wearing her own designs.

Geri looked amazingly toned in a pale yellow polka dot two-piece, which is still on sale for £40, as she basked in the sun on a yacht in the waters off the coast.

Geri previously said she was thrilled with her swimwear range, as each design suits every woman.

She said: 'It's for real women of all shapes and sizes. Everything is mix and match, so you can choose the exact shapes and styles that suit you.

'This is a collection that makes you look good and feel fabulous.'

The singer was also seen snapping pictures of her daughter Bluebell and boyfriend Henry Beckwith splashing around in the sea.

Later in the day, Geri decided to show off her jet skiing skills as she took to the water with Henry.

But the mother-of-one hasn't just been frolicking with her beau on the sunshine break, and has been spending the majority of her time with five-year-old Bluebell.

Yesterday, Geri, who accentuated her figure in a leopard-print bikini, spent some quality mother/daughter time with the youngster.

At one point she appeared to be engaged in deep conversation with Bluebell while, later in the day, they both slipped into life vests as Geri decided to let Henry pull her along on his jet ski.

Bluebell was born in 2006, father by Sacha Gervasi, a 40-year-old British-born screenwriter who lives in Hollywood.

And it seems Geri is something of a fan of all things animal-print, as she was later seen donning another wild outfit as she perused the goods in a local shop, settling particularly on a leopard-print kaftan.

In the years since her birth Geri has maintained a healthy figure thanks to Bluebell.

She once said: 'In the past, I always had my hang-ups, believing I wasn’t pretty enough, or a good enough singer, or thin enough.

'But now I’m much more accepting of myself. A lot of my body issues have naturally settled down,' the singer said previously.

'I have a history of eating disorders but, as a mother, you think of being an example to your child. I’m so much more balanced than I was.'

Geri and Henry have been away for around two weeks now, they were last pictured play fighting aboard the boat with Henry trying to throw her into the water.

But although he even picked her up but she refused to let go.

The former Spice Girl was so determined not to be thrown in that at one point she nearly pulled Henry's shirt off.

The couple started dating in March 2009, just days after Geri ended her brief engagement to Italian yacht tycoon Fabrizio Politi.

Geri has described Henry as an 'Alpha male' personality and claims this is the reason why the pair have stayed together for so long.

She has said his strong personality means he won't let her push him around and said they have a lot in common and both enjoy being fun, active and playful.

Steven Spielberg 'demanded Megan Fox be fired from Transformers after Hitler comment'

Steven Spielberg demanded Megan Fox be fired from the latest Transformers film after she insulted its director, it has been revealed.

The Hollywood legend was outraged after the screen beauty compared Michael Bay to Hitler during a press interview.

The 25-year-old actress was quickly dumped from the film and replaced by British model Rosie Huntingdon-Whitley.

Fox had tried to claim she left the third in the series of the films to pursue other acting opportunities.

But ahead of the July 4 premiere of Transformers 3 director Bay has revealed for the first time he was told to get rid of the actress.

He said: 'You know the Hitler thing. Steven (Spielberg) said, fire her right now.'

Spielberg is executive producer of the film which stars Shia LaBeouf.

Fox had appeared in the first two Transformers films and the roles helped her be named one of the sexiest women in the world.

She had been cast in the third film but shortly before production began she gave an interview to the British magazine Wonderland.

In it she said Bay wanted to be like Hitler on his sets.

Other crew members from the film hit back on a blog comparing Fox's acting to that of a porn star.

In an open letter posted on Michael Bay's website the crew member wrote: 'Michael found this shy, inexperienced girl, plucked her out of total obscurity thus giving her the biggest shot of any young actresses' life.

'He told everyone around to just trust him on his choice. He granted her the starring role in Transformers, a franchise that forever changed her life; she became one of the most googled and oogled women on earth.

'She was famous! She was the next Angelina Jolie, hooray! Wait a minute, two of us worked with Angelina – second thought – she's no Angelina. You see, Angelina is a professional.

'We know this quite intimately because we've had the tedious experience of working with the dumb-as-a-rock Megan Fox on both Transformers movies.'

The film's screenwriter Ehren Kruger told GQ magazine that Fox didn't seem interested when she arrived for rehearsals for Transformers: Dark of the Moon.

He said:'She seemed like an actress who didn't want to be part of it.'

LaBeouf told GQ:' She started s*** talking our captain. Which you can't do.'

Bay said he wasn't hurt by the Hitler comment.

Lauren Goodger flashes her diamond after claims Mark Wright 'made a move' on Jorgie Porter

Lauren Goodger today did her best to deny reports her relationship with Mark Wright is in trouble as she stepped out wearing her engagement ring.

It was claimed today that Lauren had moved out of the flat she shares with the TOWIE lothario after finding out he 'made a move' on Hollyoaks star Jorgie Porter.

The News of the World claimed renowned ladies' man Mark had tried his luck with pretty young blonde Jorgie during a night out in Liverpool on Thursday.

A source told the paper: 'It was clear to see he was making a move on her. As a single girl, she was loving it.

'He was drunk and showing off. During a game of poker, he was touching her hand and she was grabbing his leg.'

It was also claimed Mark had approached Jorgie's Hollyoaks co-star Gemma Merna during the evening out.

But Jorgie took to her Twitter page to write: 'Don't believe everythin u read guys..had fun night out wiv hollyoaks and towie but that was it!They'll be linkin me 2 arg next!night all x'

The claims are the latest in a string of reports about Mark's alleged cheating.

MailOnline told earlier this week how Lauren was furious after hearing Mark's ex Lucy Mecklenburgh's claims that she had kissed the reality star while they were on holiday in Marbella.

But it appears Lauren lives by the 'forgive and forget' motto, as she was seen happily flashing her engagement ring at a public appearance today.

After going without her solitaire diamond ring at a public appearance earlier this week, Lauren ensured all eyes were on the jewel as she promoted her fake tanning range Lauren's Way at the The New You Beauty Show in Hertford.

And Mark has also taken to Twitter to try and assure fans of his love for fiancée Lauren.

He wrote on the social networking site last night: 'On the way home in the spud mobil looking forward 2 bed hurry up @LaurenGoodger u best be in bed b4 me warming it up.'

And this morning, after the papers had come out, Mark then tweeted: 'Hi every1. Bit of breakfast with @LaurenGoodger then on to some shopping and lunch.'

Heidi Montag Showing off her curves

She was already skinny, but reality TV star Heidi Montag claims to have recently shed 27 pounds by spending more time at the gym than most people spend at work.

In a new interview, Heidi, 24, says she spent the last two months exercising 14 hours a day to transform her figure.

Now Heidi, who had already radically changed her body with at least ten plastic surgeries, appears to finally be satisfied with the way she looks.

'I've been working out from, like, 5 a.m. to 7 p.m. for two months now,' she told US Magazine.

At her heaviest, 5'2' reality TV star said she weighed 130 pounds, but felt needed to drastically trim down.

'I've been running a lot, and I've been doing weights,' she said.

Although it's curious how much she was really able to run with her self proclaimed 'E or F' cup breasts, which would obviously make intense physical exercise difficult.

Heidi has previously admitted to getting breast enlargement surgery along with a nose job, chin jobs, an eyebrow lift, fat injections and other surgeries.

Still, she felt she needed to lose weight to achieve a perfect bikini body.

'I've been working out really hard because I had this pool party and I was like, I have to be in shape,' she revealed to US.

Heidi attended that pool party yesterday in Las Vegas with runaway bride, Crystal Harris, on what would have been the Playmate’s wedding day to Playboy mogul Hugh Hefner.

'I'm doing okay,' Crystal told People as she headed off for some fun at Wet Republic inside the MGM Grand Hotel.

'I just had to get away. Today is the day and I just had to get away. I'm going back tonight so I just wanted to get away for the day.'

As her wedding day approached, She said she knew she didn't want to marry the man who's 60 years her senior.

'I wanted to be true to myself and be true to what was best for everybody,' Crystal admitted.

But Hefner's ex, Holly Madison isn't exactly a fan of Crystal's or her decision to spend the weekend in Sin City.

'That's a new low,' Holly Tweeted of Crystal's partying in Las Vegas.

'That's disgusting and whoever booked her is tacky,' she added, suggesting that Crystal had been paid to make her poolside appearance.

Amy Winehouse booed and jeered by Serbian crowd as she slurs and stumbles her way through Belgrade concert

Earlier this month she checked out of rehab and was given the go ahead to embark on her European tour.

But it would seem that Amy Winehouse has spectacularly fallen off the wagon as her Serbian fans found out to their horror last night.

The singer was booed as she took to the stage in Belgrade on the first leg of her 12-date stint, and looked intoxicated as she stumbled around the stage.

A representative for the singer said that upcoming festival dates in Istanbul on Monday and in Athens on Wednesday would be cancelled following the Belgrade show.

Her next show is scheduled for July 8 in Spain.

A statement released by Winehouse's management read: 'Despite feeling sure that she wanted to fulfill these commitments, she has agreed with management that she cannot perform to the best of her ability and will return home.

'She would like to apologize to fans expecting to see her at the shows but feels that this is the right thing to do.'

An hour after she was due to arrive on stage in Belgrade, after being introduced by one of her backing singers, she staggered on and made her way to the back to hug one of her guitarists.

Wearing a short green and black dress that accentuated her cosmetically-enhanced breasts, she sat down on one of the speakers and adjusted her shoes while her concerned backing singer asked if she was ok and steadied her back to her microphone.

Amy, 27, looked confused and then took off one of her shoes which she threw on the floor before walking unsteadily over to her microphone.

After missing her cue a couple of times, she proceeded to deliver a half-spoken and mumbled version of her song Just Friends, her last release back in 2008.

Halfway through, slurring her words which she had difficulty stringing together, she told the crowd at the city's Kalemegdan Park: 'Let me bring the band introduction.'

But then she tried to continue singing the song, smiling all the while, seemingly oblivious of how she was coming across to her fans.

After hugging herself and failing to sing most of the song, she then came back in as the band finished, looked surprised and then slurred 'Just Friends' into the microphone as an astonished crowd booed and halfheartedly clapped.

The situation didn't improve much throughout the concert, as the Back to Black singer disappeared off stage several times leaving her band playing.

And according to local press reports, the 20,000 fans described as a 'scandal' and a 'disaster'.

Fans were also angry as may had paid about £35 a ticket which is a lot of money in a country where the average salary is about £274 a month.

One fan angrily wrote on YouTube - where videos of her disastrous performance have been posted - that he was still mad at her.

They fumed: 'She started a show and turned her back to public (btw, for most of us it was not that easy to give the money for ticket because of the economic situation in Serbia) and that was just the beginning of her disrespect and bizarre behavior.

'She did not sang one song from beginning to the end, Some of them she didn't even tried to sing. Not a fan anymore'

Amy is due in Turkey tomorrow to play Istanbul's Kucuk Ciftlik Park and also has dates in Greece, Spain, Switzerland, Italy, Poland, Hungary and Romania, finishing up on 15 August at Iolanda Balas Soter Stadium, Bucharest.

Earlier this month she checked out of The Priory Clinic at the suggestion of her father, Mitch, over concerns she was drinking too much prior to her live shows.

Her spokesman said: 'Amy Winehouse has completed her assessment at the Priory Clinic in London and will continue as an outpatient.

'She is now looking forward to playing shows around Europe this summer and is raring to go.

'She would like to send a huge thanks to all her fans for the messages of support she has received over the last week and can't wait to see them.'
