Lily Allen
All of my songs are about me and my experiences. They're very literal.
Lily Allen
You know what, my new mantra is this: ANT AND DEC. Ant and Dec. I might get their names tattooed on each wrist. Because they smile, and they never complain, and it seems to work for them and I wish I could be more like that.
Lily Allen
I'm quite an opinionated person, but I'd never written a diary before. I quite like it!
Lily Allen
I was a drug dealer in Ibiza at 15. I did not excel in drug dealing - I was terrible at it. Golden rule with drug dealing - don't get too enthusiastic with your own merchandise.
Lily Allen
And I am a weapon of massive consumption And it's not my fault, it's how I'm programmed to function.
