Lily Allen Isn’t “The Best Example”


Lily Allen, always one to call a spade a spade, thinks her pregnancy isn’t a good example for young girls. Lily, 22, is expecting her first child with boyfriend of four months Ed Simons.

She said: “I’ve had a lot of offers from people to do my own maternity range but I don’t think it is the right message to send to young Britain. I’m not the best example. I’m pregnant and a bit young, aren’t I? My demographic is generally young girls, so I don’t think a maternity line is suitable. It isn’t the best impression to give them.”

While I’m sorry Lily won’t be designing maternity wear, pregnancy clothes being completely style-less as a rule, I’m glad she isn’t setting herself up as a good example. She’s not the worst example out there *cough* Jamie Lynn Spears *cough* and at least she’s taking responsibility for her actions, and not profiting from her pregnancy with an OK! magazine exclusive. Hopefully she’ll hit paydirt with the baby photos though.

On top of making a baby, Lily is busy making a television show for the BBC, and a new album. She’s got an idea for a song.

Lily, the daughter of actor Keith Allen, said: “I was with mum dad, his wife and my sister. We were all sitting round and I said my nipples really hurt today.

“My dad’s wife said maybe you’re pregnant. I said no I’m not pregnant and my dad went: ‘Are you telling me you and your boyfriend have had sex?’

“I said: ‘Well yes but I didn’t think you could have sex by having it in the bum bum!’

“I thought I would write a song about it that goes: ‘I didn’t know you could pregnant from the bum bum’.”

I hope she does write that song. I’m no record company executive, but I think it has number one written all over it. Actually, I’m sure there’s a joke here about number 2’s, but I’m not going there. Ever.
