Lily Allen is quitting music due to lack of life to write about.
The “Fear” singer informed BANG Showbiz: “I’m definitely taking a break. I’ve been on the road for nearly five years so I’m tired and I need a break. I’ve written about just about everything that’s happened in my life so I feel like I need to go out and live a little bit more and then I’ll see what I’m going to do.”
Since announcing her retirement, the 24-year-old star – who won Best Track for her single ‘The Fear’ at the Q Awards in London yesterday (26.10.09) – has been rumored to have landed a role in ‘Reasons to be Pretty’, a stage production in London’s West End.
Although she wouldn’t confirm the speculation, the star says she is open to anything during her hiatus.
She said: “I might be doing the play, it isn’t confirmed yet. I’m just keeping all my options open.”
Lily Allen has been blasted for being political as seen by Reverend.
Reverend and the Makers frontman Jon McClure – nicknamed The Rev – hit out at the singer for her stance against file sharing, insisting she should campaign for bigger issues.
He told BANG Showbiz: “We’ve got war in Iraq, Afghanistan, bankers are taking the p**s, plus we’re melting the ice caps. There’s a lot to be angry about.
“What upsets me is last week Lily Allen came out and said, ‘We’ve got to campaign against file sharing. We’re going to tell politicians to shut down kids’ internets. What a crying shame it is that all you can get angry or upset about is kids taking your music.
“The thing with Lily is, I think when you get your nipples out in a magazine and you’re trying to make serious political comment with the government, you’re putting yourself in a silly position.”
The rocker urged the 24-year-old ‘Smile’ singer to reevaluate her priorities and put her public profile to better use.
He added: “I stole Lily Allen’s album and there’s nothing she can do about it. People think I’m a communist because I’ve got these views, but I’m not. I’m not saying people can’t earn a living, but let’s be fair. You’ve got millions of pounds, there’s things happening that are far more important than that.”
Do you think just because artists make a living off of the industry, that it is ok to illegally download their music?
Lily Allen performed her latest hit, ‘The Fear’ last evening on David Letterman. She looked great, sounded fantastic, and proves that life is better without drugs.

It seems as though Lily Allen and Lindsay Lohan have become friends since the last time Lily spoke about Lindsay. Last night the two celebrities made their way to a Los Angeles tattoo shop at 2am where they both got ink done. Lilly has ’shhh’ written on her index finger, while no word yet on Lindsay’s. What we do know though is Lindsay has been dropping a lot of weight lately and has sites wondering if she has been on drugs, which Lily has a past of. Hopefully together they can enjoy sober fun, which is what we’re wishing for them.
