More quotes by Lily Allen
I'm a record collector. I'd spend all my pocket money on vinyl.
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
I've always listened to music, since I was really, really young.
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
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
All of my songs are about me and my experiences. They're very literal.
Lily Allen
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.
Lily Allen
Why is there even a conversation about feminism?
Lily Allen
If you can't detect the sarcasm you've misunderstood.
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
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.
Lily Allen
Perez Hilton is an irritating wasp in the beautiful rose garden that is my life.
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 am a weapon of massive consumption
Lily Allen
I'm just not a private person. It's not like I do things because I want things to be public it's just that's my way of expressing myself, and I happen to be very famous.
Lily Allen
I'm opinionated, but I'm not a vindictive person and I never say anything unprovoked, either.
Lily Allen
I think of myself as quite a confused kind of person, because I think there's so many great things about the world, but there are so many awful things too. I feel very guilty a lot of the time about enjoying my life so much when there are people living in such misery.
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
When I'm in New York my boyfriend buys me sneakers and vice versa.
Lily Allen
I refuse to put make-up on just because the paparazzi are on my doorstep. I find it morally wrong.
