Geri Horner thinks everyone wants to "feel like the queen".
Geri Horner on Rainbow Woman
The Spice Girl - who is known as Ginger Spice in the 'Wannabe' group - experienced what it's like to be a beekeeper for the day in the latest episode of her 'Rainbow Woman' YouTube series titled 'Queen Bee'.
The 10th instalment saw Geri get up close to a "scary" queen bee.
She admitted in the clip: “I am a bit scared, I’m not going to lie."
The 48-year-old singer compared "the first hive" to her Spice Girl alter ego, while she insisted that "we all want to feel like the queen".
She added: “The first hive is more of a Ginger hive – friendly, the queen bee comes out when she has to, and says ‘hi’'.
“The second one … is absolutely ferocious but getting a really good job done. It’s in all of us. Make friends with both parts.
“I think the truth is, we all want to feel like the queen in our own lives. No matter who you are, you want to feel like the queen. Even if you’re a boy.”
Meanwhile, the 'Bag It Up' hitmaker previously revealed she takes fashion inspiration from Queen Elizabeth.
Speaking about dealing with the Covid-19 pandemic, Geri said: "When – like now – I feel powerless, the Queen reminds me that I can still decide to put a smile on my face, to brush my hair and put on a fabulous dress. It might sound shallow but ... isn’t that the power of clothes? I know that when I put on something stylish, it instantly gives me a lift. Fashion can generate a sense of optimism, and Her Majesty, in her vibrant palette of purples, oranges, greens and pinks, has always recognised that."
And Geri is determined to mimic both the royal's "stoic determination" and her fashionable outfit choices.
She explained: "Sometimes there is ugliness in the world that we cannot control, but we can control how we respond to it. Of course, I’m human, with fears, and the occasional urge to cry out, 'What about me?!' But over the years I’ve learned that, when I act better than I feel, I eventually do feel better. The Queen embodies that stoic determination: she’s an icon of strength – the ultimate symbol of girl power.
"So if you’re struggling to adapt to our new reality, and our dramatically altered way of life, ask yourself: What would the Queen do? For me, the answer is to act with courage and kindness. And if possible, to do it wearing pearls."
