Lily Allen Continues to Talk Trash, Take Drugs, Not Make Music

Ugh, Lily Allen is a true piece of work. Of all the attention whores in all the world, she actually seems to be vying for the top slot.

The British poptart has had a long-standing competition going with Amy Winehouse, who for her part hasn’t seemed all too interested in feuding. First, in 2007, Lily mocked Amy Winehouse’s famous addiction problems by raising a shot of Jagermeister onstage at a music festival and toasting: “It’s the end of the weekend, you have got to have a drink. Here’s to Amy Winehouse… ha!”

Then she developed a raging drug and alcohol problem of her own. Oops. In August:

“I’m not gonna say I’m never gonna do drugs again. I just know I’m not a good person on drugs.”

And the icing on the cake, today:

“The only story is that drugs are bad and they will kill you — you will become a prostitute, a rapist or a dealer. But that’s not true.

“I know lots of people who take cocaine three nights a week and get up and go to work.

“But we never hear that side of the story.

“I wish people wouldn’t sensationalise it.

“Some people are just bad at taking drugs.”

The other story that you hear about drugs is that they make you way more famous than you ought to be. Lily Allen has precisely one song that’s made any sort of splash in the U.S., and that was in 2006. Shape up, girlfriend. Winehouse has her problems but she also has her Grammys.

    Thank God for Jagermeister. It’s the fastest way to know that the person drinking it is a world class dickhead.

  2. 2 Mr. Sleepyhead Jan 7th, 2009 at 2:03 pm

    That is one sad picture. 14 minutes down, 1 minute to go in the life of another idiot celebitch.

  3. 3 Ashley Jan 7th, 2009 at 2:17 pm

    She is annoying, but what’s the point in saying she’s had one song make a splash in the States? It’s not the only place people can be famous.

  4. 4 StrawberryGirl Jan 7th, 2009 at 2:34 pm

    For all of Amy Winehouse’s problems, and they are legion, her music’s better and at least she isn’t as mean-spirited as Allen.

  5. 5 Chronic Malanga Jan 7th, 2009 at 2:42 pm

    I like Lily Allen’s music, but I can’t stand her. She is an idiot, and now that Amy is no longer a good target, she’s after Katy Perry, who to be fair, instigated their little feud. Katy Perry is annoying and I think she only wishes she had the talent Lily has, much less Amy, but yeah, where was I going with this? Oh yeah, Lily Allen is a douchette.

    In all fairness, while what she said was incredibly stupid, she DOES have new music coming out. Her first single from the album is already out, along with album cover and track listing, and its due Feb 9.

  7. 7 Pastafarian Jan 7th, 2009 at 3:05 pm

    Wow. She has a new album coming out Feb. 9th huh? Then I can’t imagine what might of triggered her escalation of this little “feud”. I only wish the people that were feuding had, like those old timey hillbilly guns like in the cartoons with the bent up barrels so when they shot each other in the face the brims of their hats would be around their necks, and their faces would be all black and smoking. Do you think she drinks out of a jug with three x’s on it? Maybe she has an insane pet duck too.

    Where are the McCoys when you need ‘em, eh Pasta?

  9. 9 Anonymous Jan 7th, 2009 at 3:39 pm

    She’s still better than Katy Perry.

  10. 10 Hurricane Jan 7th, 2009 at 4:22 pm

    Damn, I love Jaeger. My preferred shot warm or cold. But I do agree with Pasta, lots of a-holes out there drink it to be cool and they are pricks. It would ruin it for me but I get a kick out of wacthing them knowing one or two of them will inevitably kill themselves by driving into a tree or ditch.

  11. 11 Jannah Jan 7th, 2009 at 4:28 pm

    So is she saying, “Don’t blame the poor drugs who wouldn’t harm a fly, blame me cuz it’s all my fault”? Yes, some people can handle their recreational altered states better than others, but it might be better to abstain if you’re in the latter group. Hopefully she’ll be on “Celebrity Rehab Season 3″ getting help.

  12. 12 Jrod Jan 7th, 2009 at 5:16 pm

    (2005)Jrod: I’d hit it.

  13. 13 Chronic Malanga Jan 7th, 2009 at 7:14 pm

    Exactly, Jannah. I think that’s where I was going with my original comment before I got all sidetracked on the little pop star bickering.

  14. 14 Christina X Jan 8th, 2009 at 12:50 am

    I agreed with Lily Allen on the Katy Perry thing.

    And the weight thing.

    This is one instance where I think she needs to STFU. I know she thinks she’s “edgy” for talking trash, but if she was a real hard-ass like she thinks she is, she’d stop going after all of the “easy targets”…because let’s face it, these pseudo-rebellious pop stars only really attack people like Britney Spears and Amy Winehouse because it’s, well, easy to.

    They just figure “Oh, well everyone else is taking the piss out of (insert disgruntled famous person’s name here), so if I join them, I won’t get called out for it!” while seeking what credibility they have as a “bad-ass” in their sheltered little community.

    Technically if Lily Allen or ANY of these big-mouthed, arrogant, entitled, sheltered princesses want to see a pigsty, they should take a good look in the mirror.

  15. 15 jenn Jan 8th, 2009 at 7:15 am

    What a mess. Wasn’t she pregnant? Wouldn’t you like to go out for just one night of drinking with Lilly and Amy?

  16. 16 katie Jan 8th, 2009 at 8:06 am

    she is annoying, but i wouldn’t say shes the biggest attention whore. that award goes to horsey montag and spencer twatt!

  17. 17 S****** Jan 8th, 2009 at 9:29 am

    hehehe top slot hehehehe!

    Lily Allen may “(I) know lots of people who take cocaine three nights a week and get up and go to work”, but those same people are going to need sinus reconstruction within 24 months of engaging in such activity.

    Cocaine’s dirty little secret is that it eats away the inside of your nose, and recreational users with a history as short as four months have encountered problems.

    If you ever see someone with what looks like the remnants of a misplaced piercing on their nostrils, its almost always an irreversible side effect of cocaine abuse.

    The more you know… ;-)

  19. 19 D---- Jan 8th, 2009 at 1:01 pm

    “I know lots of people who take cocaine three nights a week and get up and go to work”

    Sure Lilly so did I, except they are all dead now.

  20. 20 StrawberryGirl Jan 8th, 2009 at 1:55 pm

    “Cocaine’s dirty little secret is that it eats away the inside of your nose, and recreational users with a history as short as four months have encountered problems.”

    Yup! Stevie Nicks says she has a hole inside her nose big enough to put a belt through thanks to years of coke use. It continues to slowly rot away even after you stop using. Nice! But that’s nothing compared to one Darwin Award contender I read about when I was in college. It was about a decade before the magic of Viagra or Cialis, and a guy thought that without these useful items, cocaine was his only option. He injected cocaine into his penis and the coke rotted it so bad, it fell off.

    jenn, Lily Allen was pregnant last year but she suffered a miscarriage. Can’t imagine why.

  21. 21 Thom Jan 8th, 2009 at 2:21 pm

    CHRISTINA X
    Let me see if I can approach your logic on this one(??) I think your not the kind of person that goes for peoples throats, at least not for kicks, I read the article where this quote was written about drug use in Word Magazine, the quote I know lots of people that use coke, and still get up to go to work, was made up by Miranda Sawyer, in Observer Music Monthly, after she read a quote, that read Lily Allen said I’m not saying, I’ll never do drugs again, which was made up by Paper Magazine, in the December issue. If anything I remember (oh bout a year ago) Lily Allen was rightfully angry, at N.M. E. magazine because she jokingly used the word “”GAK” (English slang for Coke) N.M.E. reported that comment to the tabloids, and that’s why people think she has a drug problem. The Interviews for both Paper Magazine, and Observer Music Monthly, were video taped after a photo shoot, Lily Allen blogged in the past and talked about how she does not want to do interviews that involve written work (GEE! I WONDER WHY?) so there you go that’s MY take (peace)

  22. 22 Thom Jan 8th, 2009 at 2:34 pm

    I read that she was asked about her song, Everyone’s at it, you know asked about the lyrics, and that’s how the story became twisted! She was also asked about her song Him (it’s a song more or less about God having a sense of humor) Everyone’s at it is an anti-drug song so I don’t get it, your probably right when you say she didn’t say this, most likely she wasn’t there.

  23. 23 Pastafarian Jan 8th, 2009 at 2:42 pm

    Stevie who?

  24. 24 Vlad Lennon Jan 9th, 2009 at 11:09 am

    I’ve been out of the loop for more than several years now since I gave up all this stuff. Is coke making a comeback or what? This has to be the umpteenth story in recent months I’ve seen mentioning it; not just celebs but also local street busts I’ve been seeing in the local media… here comes another night of the baseheads…

  25. 25 Thom Jan 9th, 2009 at 12:27 pm

    everybody on this blog is an idiot so far!

  26. 26 Pastafarian Jan 9th, 2009 at 1:11 pm

    Thom can’t see the irony in his post. Unless he means the celebrities and not the authors, commenters etc.

  27. 27 Kelsey Jan 10th, 2009 at 1:10 am

    Lily allen realizes she has nothing interesting or creative to offer anyone, so she creates her career around delusional and critical statements. My favorite quote from her was calling Radiohead arrogant for giving away their album online for free. She is jealous and insecure because even she knows how marginally talented she is.

  28. 28 Mr. Me Jan 13th, 2009 at 5:00 pm

    At least Katy Perry is known for something other than her shenanigans.

  29. 29 anonymous Feb 4th, 2009 at 9:24 pm

    To Anyone that calls Lily Allen an idiot that’s annoying!!!FIRST OF ALL EVERY STATEMENT WAS MADE UP BY THE PRESS> SECOND. Lily Allen never had a drinking or drug problem.Third Katy Perry made a rude remark (first) Four your buying into an article dated January 2009 that’s using a picture from June 2008.
