Lily Allen - This summers biggest racist?

RIP

Is "You look OK for a chick that just miscarried" a decent chat-up line? I'm trying to work out how to bag that.

She dumped that chemical dude, A Friend tells some gossip thing.

Blonde + two new tracks.

i've seen the blond, i love it even tho it looks very bottled. "i don't know" is decent, not really enough to make me care.

I don't think the blonde works for her at all. Can't wait to hear the new tracks when I get home tonight.

they're both still demos, according to her "yagga yo" blog entry

Yeah, I'm not all that crazy about the new ones either. It's hard to imagine her in a new role now that she's dropped the ol' attitude. It kindof makes me wish she'd turn 30 already and was more sure of what she is and what she wants.

she's no Kate Nash

The audio playback's all... messed up on that page. It might have something to do with these embedded video comments, but I couldn't figure out how to stop certain audio streams. Obnoxious. Anyway, that one song I could hear didn't sound bad ('i don't know').

Is there already a complete backlash against her? There were a handful of good tracks on her album, there's definite potential there, but generic junk too. It DOES seem weird that she's a talk show host now. Yes these comments are super late, I know.

I usually couldn't care less about a musician's extracurricular activities if I like the tunes, but glimpsing half an episode of that chat show made me wish I was born without eyes and ears. It was honestly possibly the worst piece of television I have ever seen in my life.

The episode I saw featured her answering viewer's questions while Martin Freeman squirmed on an awkward chaise lounge. When someone asked something about getting in trouble when she was younger, she told a wacky anecdote about getting caught giving blowjobs at school when she was 12 years old. Cut to shots of adoring, laughing girls in the audience, and a jump into some bullshit where she presented her favourite YouTube videos. It was a monstrosity.

oop ack, i'm not loving the blondeyness, at least from that one photo. But I do actually think "I Don't Know" is good.

Is there already a complete backlash against her? Reread this thread, there was a bottled backlash ready to strike from minute one. I enjoyed her singles, still think "LDN" is great, and kind of let the rest slide by, no malice.

upon first listen, the new stuff sounds like sentimental, transitional drivel to me

she's no Kate Nash

coma - it's no death

dating Smithy?

Surmounter OTM.

Topless!

BAM

that is some sexy british stuff right there

To be fair, that's by far the worst pic of the lot.

s'alright

The 'Smile' singer will now call the album 'It's Not Me It's You', according to the Daily Mirror.

The album, set for release on February 9, 2009, was previously reported to be named 'Stuck On The Naughty Step', with 'Brilly Allen' another rumoured title.

How about another suggestion for a title: IT'S OVER

is it just me or is lily allen really really hot?

Depends on the camera angle.

is it just me or is lily allen really really hot?

I thought that was the whole point!

i take it you missed that photo upthread?

I can't be bothered with this new song of hers. Really just don't care.

Good to know.

Everyone has bad days and bad angles!

agh, terrible terrible article. Apparently this year has been dominated by female artists and LA is the best of them all.

Ah - that video is for the album version, by the way. ("f*ckloads of diamonds" vs. "I want loads of diamonds")

Hmm...not a bad song, really. Still can't get acquainted with her black hair, though.

Marcello can add Lily Allen to his list of Tory cunt popstars, she was praising Boris Johnson last week.

Bimble Is Still More Goth Than Lily Allen

LOL. There is a costume shop near my work and I always used to notice all this "Emily" paraphernalia in the window.

this one? http://tinyurl.com/5spfwe

Her songs are fairly catchy, too bad her whole persona comes off as so bitchy and weirdly moralistic. I feel like so many of songs are about her wagging her finger at various aspects of society that are beneath her.

Heheh you're right, brotherlovesdub

that song is pretty good!

The inevitable 'Womanizer' cover

La Lily singing "The Lady is a Tramp" on Jools Holland's New Year's Eve show was mortifyingly revealing of her limitations. I have no idea whose idea it was for her to sing that but her breathy thing just doesn't work with a song like that, which asks for brassiness, pipes, power and sass. She was like a little girl playing dress up. Really embarrassing.

"LILY ALLEN STATEMENT

During an interview with The Word magazine Lily Allen was asked about the lyrics of a song on her album called "Everyone's At It". The song's subject matter concerns drug use. In her answer she replied that she "had no statement to make, I just wish people wouldn't sensationalise this thing that just exists". At no point does she say that drugs are a good thing or that she condones drug use; in fact she says that "I can spot the signs (of people on drugs) and it terrifies me". The song itself talks about a culture of both legally prescribed drugs like anti-depressants and also illegal drug use.

Lily Allen would like to state unequivocally that she does not condone illegal drug use and has every sympathy with individuals and families whose lives have been blighted by drugs.
"

how obvious is it that the record label bosses have called the girl in for a bollocking, or that she is worried they will.

It would be hard to believe that this is coming from the record label, since they're releasing the whole controversy-courting record in the first place.

I accidently posted this on De Subjectivism :P Favorite line so far off the new album.

"I don't imagine that he's ever been suicidal,
His favorite band is Creedence Clearwater Revival"

Those De Subjectivism guyz baggin' on Dom over there: "Ah, van Dom Passantino. Die heeft een pesthekel aan ALLE muziek :)"

Don't worry, I suggestbanned their asses.

Aruba for the Arubans, imo.
