Lily Allen Confirms The News of Her Pregnancy

Lily Allen is three months pregnant. Her rep confirms the news, following the initial report the singer gave to The Sun UK. It was revealed, hours ago, in the Sun online and on the print edition’s front page, that Allen, 25, was pregnant with her boyfriend Sam Cooper’s baby. I knew of it, about 12 hours ago, I guess. But, I didn’t report it as even something ‘confirmed’ in The Sun often turns out not to be true/ what it seems. Also, yesterday, I checked Allen’s Twitter and the most recent message at the time said simply ‘Nothing to share’. Implying, perhaps, I thought, the report was untrue. Seems she was just being cryptic, as she’s updated again today with a tweet reading ‘Not quite front page worthy but anyways… surreal’, along with a picture of herself holding up her front page. In addition, we get a statement from her rep today saying ‘Lily Allen and Sam Cooper are very happy to confirm that Lily is expecting their first child’. This is especially great news, as Allen was unfortunate enough to suffer a miscarriage with former boyfriend Ed Simons of the Chemical Brothers, back in 2008. She has said she wants time out of the spotlight to raise a family, and she feels ready as her own mother had her ‘when she was 23′. Photos of Allen and Cooper are below.

Lily Allen Prefers Britney Spears to Lady GaGa

Lily Allen had two bumps to the head and more holiday booze than she could handle this Christmas. Allen was photographed and interviewed for the new issue of Harper’s Bazaar magazine. She was asked whether she preferred Lady GaGa or Britney Spears. She scratched her head, then her crack, then phoned a friend, and still came up with the following answer. She said that the two were in different worlds and that GaGa was too new to be compared to Spears. Allen insists that Spears is a legend, in all her lazy, blubbery lip syncing glory.

My hangover and I agree. Spears and her decade of lazy can’t compare to fresh, fashion-forward GaGa and her annoying insistence on singing live.

Lily Allen Confesses Having Three Breakdowns

Lily Allen has a reoccurring case of the sads and we should all go over to her house with a packet of bonbons to lighten her mood. Aside from the RSI incurred from her incessant social media shenanigans, Allen has other problems on her mind. Real problems. Problems that Jelly Babies and a packet of lube of can’t fix.

The singer confessed to Q magazine that she had suffered from three breakdowns, all of which were this century. We can assume she’s being grand, and she just means this decade. This includes a myriad of personal problems.

  • Lily Allen told Q : “On a personal level, my miscarriage was a horrible moment. And then there were the several breakdowns that I had. I’d say I’ve had three this century, which isn’t great.
  • She gives more detail: “There was one when I was 18 and I went into The Priory rehab clinic. I’ve had two really low points since then. I’ve got a touch of dysmorphia. I was sitting in bed last night and I caught sight of myself in the mirror. I said, ‘God, I’m a funny looking thing’.”

Lily Allen to Move in With Her New Boyfriend

Lily Allen always seems to be rushing into one relationship or another.

Once into the half-ship, she seems to have her foot on the accelerator the entire time, and she rush past all the usual relationship pit-stops. This time she has skipped her usual one-week-in topless holiday pit-stop, and has jumped to the moving in with the guy step. In my opinion moving in is a really risky thing to do, without first going on a holiday where at least one of you is exposing your nips. But then, what do I know.

More details, and three photos of Allen out at Petra Ecclestone menswear collection FORM launch at Matches in London, UK on October 1, 2009, below.

Lily Allen Chanel Ads for Fall/ Winter 2009/10

Lily-Allen-Chanel-Ads-3

Lily Allen has finally earned her way into a new Chanel campaign.

The tiny UK singer is always head-to-toe in their outfits and giving them a buttload of free advertising, so it’s about time they actually started paying her to promote this season’s products. The campaign is for designs from the new Coco Cocoon Collection from Chanel’s Fall/Winter 2009/10 collection.

Must say, the faux Audrey Hepburn thing is played out, but it’s hard for Allen not to look adorable. Can’t blame her for Chanel being uninspired.

Lily Allen Blasts Freeloading Music Fans

Lily Allen, 24, has lashed out at music fans who opt to snag illegal downloads rather than springing for legal tracks.

She tells Britain’s NME magazine: “If what the consumer wants is good music, then they are going to have to start paying for it. The music industry is run by a bunch of f**king idiots and if you’re giving those people less money they are going to invest in bands that aren’t very good. The more money there is in the industry, the more they are going to have to invest in quality bands.

“There are people really struggling to make their way, they’re getting dropped much quicker, not being given the opportunity to make second albums. The only people responsible are those who are downloading music illegally, because there is no money going towards the bands anymore.” (via Contact Music)

Seems the UK singer has, for once, put her Crackberry down for long enough to form one whole thought. She did a pretty good job for her first try. After all, it takes more effort to come out with this rather succinct (for her) comment than spew watered down vitriol over her celebrity friends on Twitter.

In this comment, one can assume that Allen is talking crap about me and all my ghetto peers who oftentimes listen to the grainy unofficial version of a track or even an early leak, before deciding to make a purchase. Music is expensive as a mother effer if you have as broad a taste in music as some people, and so it makes sense to basically take the tracks for a test drive to see if you like them first. You can do it with cars to see if you likes them and I does the same wif condoms to make sure they aren’t one of the many brands that make me itch in my no no places. Some people do take their cheapness to the next level and don’t even buy the song, but some of us will later purchase the track anyway.
