Stars are just like us, right? 

Well, if we happen to be British pop royalty who opts only to ride public transportation for fun, then yes, definitely. Geri Halliwell is just like us.

The former Spice Girl took the tube this morning for the first time in 17 years, and she has posed pics to prove it.

Ginger Spice raved about her experience via social media, pegging herself a "Londoner" who is "liberated."

"Not so bad!!" she added thereafter along with a photo of herself standing on the subway platform with a copy of The Financial Times in tow. 

She then summed up and justified her spontaneous trip in 140 characters: "Forgive me for being a brat:-after 17 years & yesterday's 2 hrs of traffic-lets save time & money-the tube!

Halliwell isn't the only celeb trying to "save time and money" by catching a lift on public transportation

Anne Hathaway, Olivia Wilde, and Bradley Cooper all recently waved off their chauffeurs to take the grimey underground train. 

But rattling off those A-list names, we highly doubt their commoner commutes are for any financial reasons.
