I don't really like the way that journalism works in the UK anyway it's all about getting the most shocking thing out of somebody and kind of twisting people's words, which isn't really journalism, as far as I'm concerned.

More quotes by Lily Allen
When I hit a period of not being able to write music, I get up and walk away. It's pretty mean but it's true.
Lily Allen
People recognize me all the time now, and there's lots of autograph hunting and smiling. But then I get to play gigs, which are amazing. It's a good job.
Lily Allen
I always wanted to do music but never really had the confidence to do it until my first manager George Lamb, who I met out in Ibiza, encouraged me.
Lily Allen
I'm quite an opinionated person, but I'd never written a diary before. I quite like it!
Lily Allen
I wasn't into anything at school. I used to get really embarrassed. I used to get asked to do performing things, and I'd go to all the rehearsals, and then I'd pretend to be ill on the day I had to actually perform. I was very unhappy at school.
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
Nobody says anything real today. Most of those girls have their songs written by other people. It annoys me, because 'eh oh eh oh ahh' is not a chorus...
Lily Allen
I've actually broken up with boyfriends for inspiration.
Lily Allen
I don't think men are the enemy. I think women are the enemy.
Lily Allen
Why is there even a conversation about feminism?
Lily Allen
I know lots of people that take cocaine three nights a week and get up and go to work every day, no problem. But we never hear that side of the story.
Lily Allen
And I am a weapon of massive consumption And it's not my fault, it's how I'm programmed to function.
Lily Allen
I don't really see how any song can not feel contrived if it isn't honest, and how could I write honest songs if I don't write about stuff going on in my life and how I'm feeling?
Lily Allen
I refuse to put make-up on just because the paparazzi are on my doorstep. I find it morally wrong.
Lily Allen
Yeah, I was a florist. I went to floristry school.
Lily Allen
Perez Hilton is an irritating wasp in the beautiful rose garden that is my life.
Lily Allen
People in this day and age are still under the illusion that every woman who is successful must be being controlled by a man... I'm the boss.
Lily Allen
I studied voice when I was at school, and I was in the chamber choir, and I studied music theory as well, so I guess a lot of it came from being taught at school.
Lily Allen
I'm a record collector. I'd spend all my pocket money on vinyl.
Lily Allen
Cheryl Cole, if you're reading this, I may not be as prety as you but at least I write my own songs.
