Cilmi Sparks Panic on Peru Trek

Singer Gabriella Cilmi sparked panic while trekking along Peru's Inca Trail earlier this week (beg27Sep10) - when she disappeared for over an hour in sub-zero temperatures.

The Sweet About Me hitmaker is hiking to the ruins at Machu Picchu in aid of a breast cancer charity, alongside British celebrities including singer Alexandra Burke and TV presenter Denise van Outen.

The stars started to worry when they couldn't find Cilmi and began a search for the singer.

But they were eventually relieved when Cilmi was found an hour later in a field of llamas, reports Britain's Daily Mirror.

The group is due to complete the charity trek on Friday (01Oct10).
