Lily Allen defends chat show
Lily Allen has dismissed reports in the UK press that many audience members walked-out of filming for her new TV show last week. The UK pop star has taken to her blog to respond to reports in the national press that the first episode of the chat show was beset by problems.
This weekend, the Mail On Sunday claimed one third of the crowd at “Lily Allen & Friends” left because they were bored. However, Lily says some were forced to leave because the recording had overrun and people had to get home.
She wrote: “Thank you to the ever supportive ‘Mail On Sunday’, they insinuated a third of the audience left because they were bored with the content of the show. In fact, due to it being the FIRST show we’ve done we ran over a little and naturally a small number of the audience had to catch the last trains back to wherever they came from.”
Elsewhere in the online posting, Lily said she is nearing completion on her new album, the follow-up to 2006 debut “Alright, Still”.
