Lily Allen: Another Falling Star

Brit Brat's work visa revoked, cancels U.S. tour dates.

Share this story

Lily Allen has recently been aligning herself with the Winehouses and Lohans of the entertainment world by making a drunken mess of herself in public, starting all kinds of celebrity spats, canceling gigs due to “illness” and just being a let-down in general. True to form, her work visa was recently stripped as a result of assault charges brought against her for a March 13th beatdown of a photographer in London, and she’s been temporarily banned from the U.S.

As a result, her North American tour, originally scheduled to start on September 6th in San Diego, has been put on hold indefinitely, and she’s been forced to pull out of her scheduled performance at the MTV Video Music Awards.

Lily recently posted some very anti-glam pictures of herself in bed, holding a doctor’s note no less, as well a personal explanation for canceling shows in Sweden, Norway and Holland.


Her apology letter:

Hello everybody ,

I’ve have literally been around the whole world in two weeks from London to Japan around Australia and then to LA and Vegas then back to LA for a 17 hour video shoot , and now I'm back in London eating my mums chicken soup cause im afraid the travelling has caught up with me . I've got sinusitis and strep throat ( i don't even know what that is ) and have been advised to take a couple of weeks off by a doctor in LA and a doctor here .Before anyone starts trying to accuse me of neglecting my fans I want to apologise and say how sorry I am , but I cant risk causing any permanent damage . I hope people can understand and aren’t too angry .

Who the hell doesn’t know what strep throat is?!

And while we’re on the topic of the fascinating downward spirals of overhyped celebrities, Miss Allen had a thing or two to say recently in New York Magazine about some other limelight let-downs, which could possibly be her best quote ever: "I could be Paris Hilton soon enough. Oh, my God, her life is so fucking insane. She doesn't even do anything. I can't wait until Lindsay Lohan goes to jail. 'Boo hoo. I'm going to jail.' Good. Does that mean you'll stop showing me your pussy now?"

 A bit of the pot calling the kettle black, I’d say.
