Geri Halliwell trapped in the lift

London (ANI): English pop singer Geri Halliwell had to be rescued by fire fighters on May 05, after she got stuck in a broken lift for an hour.

The Spice Girls singer was at a shopping centre for a book signing when the lift jammed between the ground and the first floor, trapping her inside, reports The Sun. The 35-year-old was trapped inside the lift with four other people, and after engineers failed to get it moving, a fire crew was called.

The fire fighters had to move in and use a manual crank to raise the lift and open the doors. Halliwell was at the Lakeside centre in Thurrock, Essex, to sign copies of her new children's book Ugenia Lavender.
