A spokesman for the hotel explained that the fire started “at approximately 6.30am, one of the service elevator motors burnt out. There was a slight discharge of smoke and because of our robust fire management policy, the alarms were activated and a full evacuation of the building was carried out.”

He also explained: “As a matter of procedure, the fire brigade were called to carry out full safety checks throughout the building. All guests were safely accounted for and allowed back into the hotel soon after 7 a.m.”

She has a string of successful European shows ahead. On Sunday night (June 24) she appeared with Jay-Z at BBC Radio 1’s Hackney Weekend festival.

The pop star is set to headline the Wireless Festival, taking place from July 6-8 at London’s Hyde Park, for about 65,000 fans.
