I hang out with models, the biggest pop stars and, you know, really and honestly, I hate saying this, but none of them are achieving those body shapes by being healthy.

I think people probably lie about not reading their own reviews. I don't think that's true - I've been to a lot of music festivals and hung out backstage, especially in the past couple of years, and I see all these bands reading about themselves in newspapers. So I don't think that's true.

I've always listened to music, since I was really, really young.
Lily Allen
Image
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
Image
I just felt like I couldn't deal with the everyday responsibilities of life, paying bills and all of that. I'm terrible at all of that. So I knew I had to make enough money to pay someone else to deal with all of that.

Cheryl Cole, if you're reading this, I may not be as prety as you but at least I write my own songs.

Image
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.

Why is there even a conversation about feminism?
Lily Allen

Because of piracy there has been a massive downturn in people buying music, which makes it more difficult for artists to make money from the sale of records.
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.

I'm a record collector. I'd spend all my pocket money on vinyl.

I'm quite an opinionated person, but I'd never written a diary before. I quite like it!
