Mark Ronson, in what may prove to be career suicide, has turned down the opportunity to work with David Hasselhoff. His excuse? He’s too busy.

He said: “He came up and was like, ‘Hey, I really love your stuff,’ and I was just taken aback. He stayed and watched our show and said that he’s got some new TV show and wanted me to produce a song with him. But I’m a bit busy right now!”

Too busy for the Hoff? Too busy to work with the man who has given us classic covers of ‘Jump in my Car’ and ‘Hooked on a Feeling’?

Mark was at Glastonbury where Lily Allen performed a guest spot during his set. This was following the news that her Nana had died, as she told the crowd. It’s been a rotten year for Lily Allen, who has suffered a miscarriage and subsequently spilt up with boyfriend Ed Simons. Ed was also on hand to comfort her, I hope it means they are on good terms. Her television show wasn’t as successful as she or the network hoped, and she’s feuding with Perez Hilton. Hopefully her second album, which she has just finished, will put the focus back on her music instead of her personal troubles.

British singer Lily Allen, 22, who had a miscarriage on New Years, has been dumped by her boyfriend, Chemical Brother’s member Ed Simons, 37. The pair’s relationship grew strained after the miscarriage, and though they made some attempts to save it, eventually it was a lost cause. Lily became pregnant after they’d only been dating a month.

The Smile singer, 22 - who suffered a New Year miscarriage - was last night said to be heartbroken. The couple’s five-month relationship hit the rocks as they battled their grief by taking a £3,000-a-night holiday in the Maldives.

They tried to patch things up on their return to the UK - but following a series of bitter rows millionaire Ed, 37, told her: “It’s over.” A pal of Lily’s confirmed last night: “They tried to make things work but couldn’t. The miscarriage was a horrible experience for both of them - and in recent weeks the mood between them had been really strained.”

The friend went on: “Lily is really upset things haven’t worked out for her and Ed. She had talked about settling down for good and having a family.

Lily obviously has a lot to deal with right now. Having a miscarriage must be awful, and breaking up with someone you care about is just salt in the wound. They do have a 15 year age difference, which can be a lot, especially at their respective points in life. Handling something as complicated as a pregnancy - and a miscarriage - is challenging in any relationship, but must have been extra hard in one so new.

In some very sad news, Lily Allen has had a miscarriage in London, following a holiday in the Maldives with boyfriend/baby daddy Ed Simons. She and the Chemical Brother were expecting their first child.

Her spokesman said: “We can confirm that Lily Allen has suffered a miscarriage. She and her partner Ed Simons will be making no further comment and we ask that their privacy be respected during this difficult time.”

The miscarriage was initially reported in The Sun newspaper, which isn’t always the most accurate source, but was confirmed later by her rep. The newspaper also reports that Lily recently spoke of how much she was looking forward to being a mum.

She said: “I’ve looked forward to being stable my whole life. My parents are amazing, but it has been a whirlwind upbringing.

“I have got my eye on the prize, which is having kids and getting married and cooking dinner and doing homework with my children.”

Lily will make a great mum when she does have kids. Friends are describing the couple as shocked and heartbroken, and our feelings are with Lily and Ed at this difficult time. Losing a baby is awful.

Lily will soon be working on her BBC television show and new album, and The Chemical Brothers are touring this year.

Update by Celebitchy: The Daily Mail states that Allen was four months along in her pregnancy.

22 year-old British songstress Lily Allen is pregnant with her first child, at least according to questionable source The Sun. They say that Allen and her boyfriend of three months, Ed Simons from the group Chemical Brothers, 37, are expecting a baby and that they’re both looking forward to it. The happy couple supposedly told their friends and family.

POP star LILY ALLEN is all smiles after discovering she is pregnant with her first child, The Sun can reveal.

The 22-year-old singer found she was expecting last month, but has only revealed the news to close family.

She and CHEMICAL BROTHER boyfriend ED SIMONS, 37, are delighted.

A source close to the singer said: “Lily is thrilled to be pregnant and can’t wait to become a mum. She’s a real family person.

“Ed’s very happy. He is really looking after her.”

The Smile singer has been dating Ed - who is 15 years her senior - since September.

22 is pretty young to get pregnant, but Allen seems like she has a good head on her shoulders and she strikes me as the type that will make a great mom.

Allen has had some minor mishaps - she’s been photographed out drunk with her friends and once kicked a photographer, but she seems like a realistic person who is grateful for her success. On her blog on myspace she talks about how lucky and amazed she is at the good fortune she is having in life. It’s really refreshing to see that she doesn’t have a sense of entitlement or feel that success and luxury are somehow owed to her.

She’s only been with her boyfriend for a few short months, but I can see her making it all work. She recently said that she’s only going to do one more album and that after that she might want to retire to raise “chickens and pigs.” Maybe she’ll be raising children instead.

There was a big debate on the Jessica Alba post whether unmarried pregnant celebrities set a bad example for teen girls by having children too young and out of wedlock. You can certainly point a finger at Jamie Lynn Spears, the star of a show aimed at tweens, for getting pregnant at the tender age of 16, but five years makes a big difference, and I wouldn’t judge Allen for it if this news is true.

Lily Allen is shown outside the Chanel show in London on 12/6/07. Ed Simon is shown in a promo shot for the Chemical Brothers below.

Update: Allen has confirmed her pregnancy through her rep. She was photographed out smoking on 12/4/07, but her spokesperson says she wasn’t aware she was pregnant at that time.
