Lily Allen Is Off The Market
Lily Allen was pleasantly surprised the other day when her boyfriend popped the question and commiting to marrying this chick. She is pretty cute but there are much cuter chicks in Hollywood and I am still not sure what she does or why she is famous in the first place but whatever. So if you had a plan to slip a roofie in her drink and have your way with her sometime in the near future, you can still do that but you will have an angry husband searching for your license plate number.
Lily Allen Had A Miscarriage
It is being reported that British singer Lily Allen has had a miscarriage after 6 months of pregnancy. This isn't some bullshit National Enquirer story, this is confirmed by her rep to People magazine. This totally sucks and is not the type of story I would expect to be writing about the day after Halloween but I have a sugar hangover and I figured a nice reality check would be perfect to start this week off. My thoughts and prayers go out to Lily and her husband and hope that she can find peace in the coming weeks and months ahead.
Lily Allen enjoys aboard a luxury yacht
It's a hard life but somebody's got to live it.
And singer Lily Allen, 24, is certainly living the dream as she enjoyed some downtime in between appearances at Australia's Big Day Out festival - better known by the artists as 'The Big Day Off' due to the time off between shows.
Stripped down to a blue bikini with a white trim, the singer enjoyed a day on board a yacht with friends including Muse frontman Matt Bellamy.
Lily, 24, was seen soaking up the sun in 31C heat after singing at the music festival in Sydney.
On Sunday she performed alongside Dizzee Rascal at the festival who almost came a cropper after one over-appreciative member of the public threw a deodorant stick at him.
The singer last toured with the festival three years ago, causing quite a stir with her alcohol-fuelled behaviour.
But now she's past the wildchild phase and is enjoying a more relaxed time with friends with her fellow artists, Dizzee, Muse and Kasabian.
She told Australia's news.com: 'It's funny, actually, because I feel I am a completely different person to who I was when they all first met me.
'Then, the Big Day Out was one of the first festivals I'd done. I was so over-excited and boisterous and drunk and showing off. I didn't really know what the hell was going on.
And Kasabian were quite fresh at the time too so we were the terrible kids running around making mischief. I'm a little more grown-up.'
And she seemed to be backtracking on her public statement to quit music.
Lily said: 'Anyone who has to go to work every day gets quite sick of it, don't they? It's a job and probably what's happened, because I started so young, I was working with people who knew I was naive and worked me very hard.
Me saying I am quitting music to me is about taking control of my life, having some time to do other things. It's my decision whether I want to do another album. I haven't been offered any money to do one.'
At the Brisbane show she told the crowd: 'I want to have a baby.'
The singer Lily recently bought a five-bedroom house in the Cotswolds, and is said to be planning to start a family with boyfriend Sam Cooper.

Lily Allen leans back Kiss new boyfriend for a passionate clinch
Lily Allen and her down-to-earth boyfriend looked head-over-heels for each other last night as they kissed passionately in public.
The singer and builder boyfriend Sam Cooper locked lips at a London party and cuddled up together a balcony, seemingly oblivious to all around them.
The 24-year-old had taken her new man to the Diesel: U Music World Tour Party held at P3 in the University of Westminster.
Watching The Big Pink playing, she lent back to throw herself into a kiss with Sam, and danced around as she listened to the music. But she was never far from his side.
Dressed in a black tunic dress and carrying one of her beloved Chanel quilted handbags, Lily also stopped in at Home House for a party with Kate Moss, Sadie Frost and celebrity hairdresser James Brown.
Lily Allen debuted her boyfriend on the red carpet at the GQ Awards last month, but the pair have been spotted hand-in-hand over the summer months.
And The Fear singer has even stopped spending so much time on her beloved Twitter account after her constant twittering on her Blackberry drove him 'insane'.
Her close friend Jamie Winstone, 24, who is dating Lily's younger brother Alfie, was also at the party. She wore her peroxide blonde hair in a high-top ponytail, large earrings and a striped T-shirt dress.
Amber Le Bon, the model daughter of Duran Duran's Simon Le Bon and wife Yasmine, was also at the event.
Lily is releasing a climate change campaign track with the 80s group, a re-recording of Midnight Oil's Beds are Burning, along with other artists such as Bob Geldof, Mark Ronson and Fergie.

Lily Allen joins best friend Kate Moss to soak up the sun in St Tropez
Never one to want to miss a party, Lily Allen has joined her friend Kate Moss on her sunshine holiday in France.
The singer, wearing sunglasses, a blue strapless bikini top and white shorts, looked as trim as supermodel Kate, 35, as they strolled along the beach.
Her new physique could be down to taking her friend's advice on dieting.
According to Closer magazine, Lily recently turned to Kate for help on keeping the weight off.
'Kate's been telling her to try the "rock chick" diet - coffee, cigarettes, vodka and champagne, which are relatively low in calories,' a friend of the star revealed.
The friends looked relaxed and happy as they headed towards a luxury yacht with Kate's daughter, Lila Grace, aged six, at times walking between them holding each of their hands.
After spending time aboard the yacht, the pair took a dingy ride along the coastline of the French Riviera.
Kate has been holidaying in St Tropez all week along with a group of friends including Yves Saint Laurent designer Stefano Pilati and boyfriend Jamie Hince, guitarist for The Kills.
The model hasn't been shy about stripping off to sunbathe topless and didn't wear a bikini top or bra under a shirt with denim shorts she wore during her day with Lily, 24, causing her to flash frequently.
Later, they were seen heading to nightspot Club 55.
The break has come during Lily's European tour that will see her perform in Hungary, Norway and Finland next week before returning to the UK for the V Festival.

Lily Allen shows no Fear as she goes sledging in the snow
With her single at No.1 and snow deluging London, Lily Allen was feeling particularly playful this morning.
The singer, who hit the top of the charts with The Fear last night, joined the many thousands making the most of the weather.
Unlike many of those enjoying a day off school and work, however, she had already put in a shift, appearing on GMTV and This Morning.
But then the 22-year-old was off to a park near her north London home, where she enjoyed sliding down the hill on a makeshift sledge.
After finding a temporary roadsign near some roadworks, Lily turned the sign into a sledge and screamed in delight as she whizzed along the snow with a male friend.
She was joined by hundreds of locals, mostly families, who had also come armed with tea trays and plastic bags to try their hand at sledging.
Wearing her controversial Prada Finnish fox fur hat, Lily was wrapped up warm in a chunky black coat, denim hotpants, black tights and Ugg boots.
As well as sledging and indulging in snowball fights, the Smile singer also built a snowman.
Earlier today, Lily kickstarted her snowy fun by throwing snowballs at photographers outside the ITV Studios on London's South Bank.
After previously claiming she was more mature than her friends the same age, the 22-year-old singer reverted to her youth as she enjoyed snow games.
She said recently: 'My mates are in a totally different place. I’ve grown up so much and they are still all into going out and dancing and taking drugs. I hang out with much older people.
'I’m meeting more interesting people who tax my brain.'
But clearly today Lily was more interested in some good old-fashioned fun rather than having her brain 'taxed'.
Appearing on GMTV this morning, Lily complained she had to go on TV without her hair being styled after the programme's hairdresser couldn't get to the studios because of the adverse weather conditions.
Along with the rest of the GMTV presenters, Lily had to do her own hair and make-up before going on air.
She told host Ben Shepherd: 'No one turned up because of the snow so I've had to do it myself and I've got this greasy fringe - it's disgusting.'
Lily was clearly in good spirits after her song The Fear hit number one and her second album It's Not You, It's Me was received well by critics.
She enthused: 'It feels brilliant, I'm very happy - I'm just over the moon.
'I didn't really know whether I was capable of doing it all over again. It's a good bit of affirmation for me.'

Lily Allen shows her cheeky side in a revealing blue outfit
Lily Allen clearly wasn't going for the shy and retiring look when she chose her latest stage outfit.
The Smile singer bared her bottom in an electric blue Little Bo Peep costume and stockings on the night it was revealed she had topped the charts with her new single The Fear.
She knocked Lady GaGa off the top spot, after entering the chart last week at 168 but this week stands proud at number one pushing Just Dance down to two.
Lily wore the £395 Agent Provocateur Marine Sailor body with their Europa Blue hold-up stockings, £18, and lacy Cara briefs £60.
She teamed the outfit with a pair of towering beige platform heels and was presented with a cake at the event to celebrate her comeback single The Fear hitting the number one spot.
Lily accessorised her cheeky blue look with bright pink lips and nails, which was contrasted by her dark long hair.
The cheeky number was in aid of her performance at G-A-Y but it didn't stop the 23-year-old wearing it out for a night of celebrating at nightspot Bungalow 8.
Lily, who has played at G-A-Y once before, performed classics from Alright, Still as well as tracks from her new album, It's Not Me, It's You.
And she lived up to her feisty reputation by returning to the stage for an encore dressed as Britney Spears to perform a cover of Womanizer.
Her performance at G-A-Y comes in the wake of an interview with the Gay Times in which she said she once kissed identical lesbian twins.
The star denies she is gay but went into detail about the experience during the interview.
She told the magazine: 'That's the only time, but I have lesbian dreams a lot.'
This week Lily admitted she has turned to a therapist to get her through a crisis of confidence.
The singer says her moods are up and down and that she has arranged a session with a motivational expert to help her achieve a 'positive mental attitude'.
She has had her fair share of bad luck in the past, from her self-confessed troubled childhood to her tragic miscarriage last year.

Ms Allen cuddles up to a greying mystery man in the Caribbean
Lily Allen's new year resolution must have been to find a new boyfriend, given these pictures of the star in the Caribbean.
The Smile singer, 23, was spotted kissing and cuddling up to a grey-haired older gentleman on a yacht off the coast of St Barts.
After spending some quality family time with her mother in nearby Jamaica last week, Lily made time for romance as she enjoyed an idyllic day at sea with her new man.
The new couple appeared inseparable as they waited on the beach with their arms wrapped around each other and they waited to board the beach.
Obviously in the first throws of romance, they couldn't keep their hands off each and were frequently spotted kissing onboard the yacht.
After climbing onboard in a yellow sundress over her bikini, tanned Lily enjoys a dip in the ocean before changing into a black playsuit and bright neon bra.
Lily's choice of older man is no surprise - she's frequently dated men older than her.
She split from Chemical Brothers DJ Ed Simons, 38, in January 2008 after a five month relationship.
The end of their relationship came soon after Lily suffered a heart-breaking miscarriage.
Just weeks before meeting Ed, Lily split from record label executive Seb Chew - who was in his mid-Thirties - after a two and a half year relationship.
Lily complained last month how difficult it was to find a boyfriend because of her fame.
She said: 'If I meet someone who is not part of the showbiz industry, I think, "Should I sleep with this person? Are they going to be straight on the phone (to the press)?"
'I guess that's why famous people go out with famous people, but there aren't really any that I fancy.
'I think I like much older men.'
Despite her young age of 23, Lily insists she has grown up a lot over the past two years since becoming famous.
She said: 'My mates are in a totally different place.
'They are still all into going out and dancing and taking drugs.
'I hang out with much older people, I go for dinners at posh places and talk about art. I’m meeting more interesting people who tax my brain.'
Whether Lily's new man taxes her brain as well as attracts her physically, we'll have to wait and see.

Luxurious: Lily and friends spent the day on this lavish yacht
Elegant Nigella shows Allen a bit of class at launch of new art gallery
She's known for her elegant style and is adept in exactly how to hold the perfect ladylike poise.
So it is, perhaps, appropriate that the graceful TV cook Nigella Lawson was on hand to teach Lily Allen a bit of class at a VIP event.
The unlikely duo were spotted together at the the launch of Nigella's husband Charles Saatchi's new art gallery in London's upmarket Chelsea.
The Saatchi Gallery, which opens to the public on Thursday, saw a host of celebrities turn out for the launch party, including Ruby Wax and Tracey Emin.
Charles Saatchi, who made artists such as Damien Hirst and Emin household names, is now looking east to China's emerging artists.
Sporting a new layered chop, 23-year-old Lily enjoyed checking out some of the contemporary Chinese art in The Revolution Continues exhibition.
But she did look a little awkward as she stood next to Nigella, who donned a graceful flowing black dress.
Lily stayed at the gallery for around 45 minutes before leaving for London's Dorchester Hotel to collect a BMI Award.
And perhaps it was just enough time to pick up a few skills in social etiquette from refined Nigella.
Apart from emerging in a range of sky-high heels, Lily has been keeping a relatively low profile of late following her on-stage rant at Elton John at the Q Awards last month.
The Smile singer told the star to 'F*** off' after he made a curt remark about her alcohol intake.
Nigella, however, has been playing the ever dutiful wife and standing by her husband as he embarked upon a bizarre egg diet.
The 65-year-old ate nine eggs a day for nine months to shed an incredible four stone.

Wild child Lily Allen plays the perfect lady at Damien Hirst's big bash
Given Lily Allen's recent antics, Damien Hirst might have felt a little nervous about inviting her to one of the biggest celebrations of his career.
Only two weeks ago, her appearance at the GQ Men Of The Year awards descended into chaos as she downed glasses of wine onstage - and insulted co-host Elton John.
But the Shine singer appeared to be on her best behaviour at the artist's bash at Sotheby's auction house on Friday night.
She arrived dressed in a demure black dress, immaculate makeup and high heels - and spent the night chatting to showbiz friends including superstar producer Mark Ronson.
Lily, who has been making far headlines for all the wrong reasons lately, was the perfect party girl at Hirst's star-studded bash, which celebrated his largest body of work to be seen and auctioned under one roof.
The artist famed for creating a storm in the art world with his works featuring dead animals preserved in formaldehyde also invited a host of Brit DJs providing the musical backdrop for the night.
Among the guests, which numbered more than 1,000, were Mark Ronson, Bono, Ali Hewson, Jo Wood, Jaime Winstone and Alfie Allen.
Dressed in a sweet 50s-style full-skirt black frock and sweet pink lipstick, Lily was ever the lady all night.
And while her friend and producer Mark Ronson enjoyed what was on offer from the bar, Lily appeared to be steering clear from the drinks and opting for what looks like a fruit salad cup.
She and Mark later got behind the decks to entertain party-goers.
Earlier this month the 23-year-old singer hit the headlines because of her tipsy behaviour and constant sipping of champagne while co-hosting the GQ Men of the Year Awards with Elton John.
When Allen told the audience at London's Royal Opera House "now we reach a very special point in the evening," Sir Elton John replied: "What, you are going to have another drink?"
Lily responded: 'F*** off Elton, I'm 40 years younger than, I have my whole life ahead of me.'
The 61-year-old veteran retorted: 'I could still snort you under the table' before she told him: 'F*** off. I don't know what you are talking about.'
However Lily played down on the spat, writing on a separate MySpace post: 'Elton and I exchanged jokes and there were no hard feelings at all, in fact neither of us gave it a second thought.'
In June Allen had to be carried out of the Glamour Women Of The Year Awards and later claimed: 'I can't believe I got into that state.
'I believe somebody put something in my drink. It's totally not in my repertoire to do something like that.'
However, judging by her angelic behaviour on Friday, Allen appears to have put her hard-partying days behind her.

She arrived dressed in a demure black dress, immaculate makeup and high heels - and spent the night chatting to showbiz friends including superstar producer Mark Ronson.
Lily, who has been making far headlines for all the wrong reasons lately, was the perfect party girl at Hirst's star-studded bash, which celebrated his largest body of work to be seen and auctioned under one roof.
The artist famed for creating a storm in the art world with his works featuring dead animals preserved in formaldehyde also invited a host of Brit DJs providing the musical backdrop for the night.
Just like a lady: a mellow Lily poses with producer Mark Ronson
Among the guests, which numbered more than 1,000, were Mark Ronson, Bono, Ali Hewson, Jo Wood, Jaime Winstone and Alfie Allen.
Dressed in a sweet 50s-style full-skirt black frock and sweet pink lipstick, Lily was ever the lady all night.
And while her friend and producer Mark Ronson enjoyed what was on offer from the bar, Lily appeared to be steering clear from the drinks and opting for what looks like a fruit salad cup.
She and Mark later got behind the decks to entertain party-goers.
Hit the decks: it was a night of Brit DJ sets
Earlier this month the 23-year-old singer hit the headlines because of her tipsy behaviour and constant sipping of champagne while co-hosting the GQ Men of the Year Awards with Elton John.
When Allen told the audience at London's Royal Opera House "now we reach a very special point in the evening," Sir Elton John replied: "What, you are going to have another drink?"
In control: Lily seemed to be shunning the punch for the night

Lily responded: 'F*** off Elton, I'm 40 years younger than, I have my whole life ahead of me.'
The 61-year-old veteran retorted: 'I could still snort you under the table' before she told him: 'F*** off. I don't know what you are talking about.'
However Lily played down on the spat, writing on a separate MySpace post: 'Elton and I exchanged jokes and there were no hard feelings at all, in fact neither of us gave it a second thought.'

In June Allen had to be carried out of the Glamour Women Of The Year Awards and later claimed: 'I can't believe I got into that state.
'I believe somebody put something in my drink. It's totally not in my repertoire to do something like that.'
However, judging by her angelic behaviour on Friday, Allen appears to have put her hard-partying days behind her.
Lily Allen on Facebook after shameful Elton outburst
Lily Allen has launched a worrying tirade of self-loathing on her personal Facebook page, describing her emotional state as 'dying inside'.
She also wrote that she 'feels like killing' herself, although this statement was later removed.
The singer, 23, in the headlines this week because of her tipsy behaviour and constant sipping of champagne while hosting the GQ Awards ceremony, pulled out of producer Mark Ronson's birthday party last night.
She also stated she would not be going to Bestival this weekend on the Isle of Wight.
At 5.52pm yesterday, her Facebook entry read: 'Lily is dying inside.'
This replaced an earlier statement, posted at 4.30pm yesterday, when she wrote on her page:
'Lily has had enough feels like killing herself.'
The Smile star's actions have left close friends fearing for her state of mind. One said: 'I don't know why she had put this on there. There is no reason for it.'
It is not the first time Lily has written disturbing comments.
Last year she prompted fears for her emotional state after posting on her MySpace page that she felt she was "fat, ugly and s****er than Winehouse". This outburst came after her debut clothing collection at New Look received a lukewarm response.
Now her friends are wondering what could have sparked Lily's latest rant. One explanation was that the mouthy star may have been troubled by something she said during the GQ Awards on Tuesday.
On the same page, at 1.31am yesterday, Lily wrote: 'Was he upset? I'm worried now, was I mean?'
Her friend replied: 'It was priceless. Hope you got rid of the hangover in the end.'
This may have been a reference to her onstage clash with Sir Elton John, who complained about the amount of champagne she was drinking. After Lily told him to 'fuck off, " he responded: 'I could still snort you under the table.'

Out of control: Lily was fuelled by the free champagne on offer
Lily's dress flies in the wind as she struggles with her shopping
Lily Allen enjoys a spot of afternoon shopping just like everyone else.
But it looks as though the rebellious singer bit off more than she could chew - or should that be carry – while out enjoying some retail therapy on the Portobello Road in trendy Notting Hill.
The 23-year-old struggled to carry her designer bags on Saturday afternoon and almost tripped over them in the middle of the road when an untimely gust blew her flimsy blue dress up in her own version of a Marilyn Monroe moment.
Luckily, she just managed to stop herself from tumbling over and saved her blushes by stopping her dress from rising higher.
Lily, who lives in the less trendy area of Kilburn, then collected her bags - and her thoughts by the look of it - and continued with her shopping extravaganza.
The afternoon had started better for her as she relaxed while leaning on a tree and giggled during a conversation on her mobile.
At one point the singer, who spent most of the summer jetting around Europe, was in hysterics.
There's no denying her sense of humour, but perhaps Lily was buying some furnishings for her new home.
Following the success of her debut album Alright Still in 2007, Lily moved out of her mother’s North London home and bought her own place.

Going, going... gone: The bags fall while her dress rises
