Former chart-topper Lily Allen has endured minor burns after a gas cooker exploded in her caravan
Lily Allen claims to have had a close encounter with death this weekend, as a gas stove exploded, singing her eyelashes and causing what have been described as minor burns in the process.
The popular singer has been holidaying in Gloucestershire with a friend, in her retro camper-van, complete with floral curtains and worn-looking seats.
It seems that Allen’s accident occurred whilst operating a gas stove – and the resulting explosion left her feeling shaken, but thankful that her injuries were not more serious.
She has been keeping her 5.2 million twitter followers up-to-date with her recent caravanning experiences – Allen’s injuries have resulted in a flood of supporting comments from her fans.
The ‘Smile’ singer implored her followers to take the necessary precautions when camping and using potentially hazardous instruments such as gas stoves:
“Please be SO careful using gas stoves at anytime but especially during festival season when ones reaction times may be a little off. Feeling very grateful to be alive. Happy camping.”
