Cilla Black was pulled onto stage by John Lennon to sing with The Beatles

Cilla Black once revealed she always wanted to grace the stage with her talents. While she wasn’t born into much money or notoriety, she was born in Liverpool at the same time as The Beatles. Throughout their teenage years the two acts crossed paths, but it wasn’t until John Lennon and co hit the stage when Cilla found her way into stardom.
In her youth, Cilla worked at the legendary Cavern Club in Liverpool as a cloakroom girl.
This was the famous venue that The Beatles played at regularly during the early 1960s before finding worldwide fame.
During this time Cilla crossed paths with the band – and many others – all the time, but they did not yet know the talent she possessed.
Between sets, the young star would pester bands to let her up on stage with them to sing alongside their instruments.
