Geri Horner accused of ‘patronising’ Nobel Peace Prize victor Malala Yousafzai
And the pressure was on the former Spice Girl to work her magic but unfortunately, she didn’t live up to everybody’s expectations.
While another added: “Still recovering from seeing terrible Geri Halliwell “trying” to present The One Show”.
We spoke with the director of “He Named Me Malala”, Davis Guggenheim, and got a list of reasons “He Named Me Malala” is worth your time – The List’s Teresa Strasser has them on the Lowdown. “Is it just me, or was Geri Halliwell deeply patronising as an interviewer?” tweeted another.
However Geri, who was standing in for Matt Baker on The One Show, found herself interviewing the inspirational teenager on Friday along with regular presenter Alex Jones.
One Twitter user posted in response: “Maybe you could learn to spell the name of a Nobel prize victor if you’re interviewing her”.
Three years back, 15-year-old Malala Yousafzai was shot for speaking out about how girls in her native Pakistan should be allowed to go to school.
She also said she thought the 18-year-old’s dad was “very cool” and “sounded like a great father”. “He allowed me to fly”. Who at the #BBC let Geri Halliwell interview the unbelievable Malala? I was like, “Wow that’s really cool!'” Check out the interview and decide for yourself!
Mirror Online has contacted Geri’s spokesperson for comment.
