This is in no way the most intelligent post I’ve written on Brit Music Scene, but I just couldn’t resist.
Lily Allen was diagnosed with a heart murmur in October, and since then has gone on a health kick, losing an incredible 19lbs in just six weeks.
So what better way to celebrate than to have a […]

At the beginning of October, Radiohead rocked the music industry by offering their new album ‘In Rainbows’ as a download only, and allowing the fans to pay what they wanted for it. If that meant 10p then so be it, although most people tended to pay more like £4 for it.
Now they have announced […]

Leona Lewis, currently sitting pretty at number one in the UK singles chart, has an unlikely celebrity fan.
Lily Allen, someone who I would associate with the more independent side of the pop industry wouldn’t be my first guess at being a fan of reality show winner Lewis.
Leona won last year’s X Factor show and […]

Lily Allen could be about to do a Britney Spears. In other words, go partying every night, think she’s invincible, think everyone loves her and shave her head.
Okay, forget that last one, but otherwise it seems Britain’s own Lily could be heading down the path of habitual screw up Britney Spears.
Friends are said to […]

I’m kind of in love with Lily Allen. Not as much as Kate Nash, but still quite a lot, in a non-stalky threatening way. I think it may be her third nipple, or maybe just the fact that she’s a kick ass British singer with a great voice and attitude to boot.
She recently covered ‘Don’t […]

Lily Allen joins her in the Best New Artist category, and […]

Earlier on, I wrote a post reporting that Lily Allen had been denied entry in to America, and had her visa confiscated in Los Angeles. Well it now seems that it could have just been newspaper talk, as Lily’s manager Neale Easterby has called the reports “rubbish” and states that she is currently performing in […]

Lily Allen has had her US Visa cancelled, and has effectively been banned from visiting America. The British singer and pop tartlet was reportedly held at Los Angeles International airport and questioned about her March arrest in London regarding her clash with a paparazzi photographer.
Apparently she spent 5 hours in an interrogation room where her […]

I want to hate Kate Nash, I really do. She’s being feted by so many publications and music journos as the next big thing, that I don’t want to join that throng of bandwagon jumpers. But I can’t help myself. I came on ready to slate her, piss on her chips and generally say she’s […]

I’ve got a sneaking admiration for Mark Ronson, the man who has put out a whole album of remixes and taken the credit for them. When I first heard the album, I wanted to hate it but couldn’t, it’s just damned good. This is the cover of Kaiser Chiefs ‘Oh My God’ featuring Lily Allen. […]
