Lily Allen's earthquake terror: Singer forced to flee skyscraper from 55th floor with footballing legends Dennis Wise and Gianfranco Zola when natural disaster struck in Jakarta


The 39-year-old British singer opened up on the scary ordeal in the newest episode of her Miss Me? podcast on Thursday, which she co-hosts with her best friend Miquita Oliver.

Lily Allen has revealed she once experienced a 'serious' earthquake while performing in a skyscraper in Jakarta and was forced to flee with an unlikely group of footballing legends including Dennis Wise and Gianfranco Zola. A powerful 9.1-magnitude earthquake off the coast of the Indonesian island of Sumatra on December 26 2004 triggered a tsunami that killed about 230,000 people across a dozen countries, reaching as far as East Africa. It was reported last month that the singer checked herself into the clinic after telling friends she was close to a nervous breakdown following her break-up from the Stranger Things actor.
