In a discussion as to whether Lily Allen is shit ot not one forgets that shit is quite useful. It can be used as organic fertiliser. It can also be used in diagnosing illness. The debate surely should be is Lily Allen worse than shit and the answer is obviously yes. She is ugly, talentless and moronic. She has the personality of a turd and her dire “music” should be banned under the geneva convention. In fact, the only “artiste” worse than this utter pile of shite is that ugly bitch Amy Winehouse. Imagine being trapped on a desert island with those two mingers. Man Friday would have a sore arse.

What sort of music do you like, Joe? I need some recommendations to replace all my imaginary CDs.

Lily Allen’s music is absolutely horrible. She sounds like a retarded six year old reading off poems she’d scribbled down minutes earlier. On one hand, I can understand why people like her music; the majority of people have no taste in music whatsoever and will only listen to what’s trendy. On the other hand, it’s unbelievable that people can be so brain-dead when it comes to music. Lily Allen fans, in a year’s time Lily will be unheard of, and you’ll be listening to the next fashionable thing to come along. She has no talent. Listen to some real music.

I’m sorry if the last post reeked of self importance and condescension, but I think your remarks are somewhat hostile and pejorative. There’s nothing patronizing about it. There’s no air of “extending my hand below” in any sort of fashion, nor I am compelled to do it because I think I’m somehow needed or crucial. I really have spoken out against it often, because I think it’s bull-crap and in the same position, I wouldn’t want the same done to me.

Hear Hear Cliff! (Surely not Richards?)

And thank you for you tireless work in spending - ahem - “a good portion of my life defending women against shallow stereotyping, objectification, being compared to and judged by the standards set by popularized depictions in magazines and film”. I am glad to see that whilst you are agains belittling and bullying, patronizing is fair game in yr book!

What I don’t understand is how she’s come to be heralded as some feminist figure. It’s frustrating, because I’ve spent a good portion of my life defending women against shallow stereotyping, objectification, being compared to and judged by the standards set by popularized depictions in magazines and film, and the end result is someone comes right back to more or less indiscriminately fire arrows at the insecurities and weak spots of males in general with a slew of pats on the back. I don’t believe that feminism and empowerment has to come from belittling another faction of people. That’s the same mentality that authorizes bully-like cruelty.

Oh dear. There *is* a lot of nastiness on this page. Please remember boys and girls that taste in music is subjective, always has been and always will be. I’m personally not a fan of Miss Allen, but, to give the lady credit, she *is* doing pretty well for herself and I doubt that’s purely down to a huge marketing campaign. Someone has to be buying her music. And to be fair all you “h8ers”, it’s not the absolute worst music you’ve ever heard in your life is it? It’s relatively harmless. There’s far FAR FAR worse out there. So let the Lily fans enjoy her while she’s still here and use your wit, good grammar & accurate spelling to fight the real music criminals on the internet (you know who they are). And please, Lily Allen fans, to make a decent & coherent argument work over the internet people really need to understand what you’re saying. To reiterate ChavScum, stop typing like you’re being charged for it.

i think lily allen, is complete and utter shit, all her music promotes drug use which is already at its highest levels in the UK and her songs are about her miserable life. no one wants to hear this shit i hope her career is short lived and she ends up working in a chip shop or something and to boot she is ugly as fuck aswell.

Hey, Sir Cliff, great to see you on our boards, but lay off Jordan!

She is sexist, though. She’s cruel, and she’s a fine example of how patriarchy has resulted in a backlash double standard of acceptable misandry.

“The mistaken impression that she is successful” - yes I can see how LAllen’s sales figures and royalty statements wd shore up this pernicious illusion.

It does seem that the ones defending the chavwhore are either 10 year olds who write in their crappy text message grammar (there is no cost to the email and your not limited to characters like in text messages cheapskate idiots) or they are the more annoying, self serving waste of spacers who continually buy the chavwhores cheap tac keeping the whore under the mistaken impression that she is sucessful. Its the people supporting her, the ones eager to rush out and buy something with her in it that are the real problem. Ignore this Lilly bitch and soon she will dissappear hopefully never to climb out of her sewer hole again.

I am amazed that given most of the people responding are English, why cant they write in their own language?. How disturbing. I’m Australian and love Lilly, the best thing to come out of your country since Blur. Be proud of anyone that becomes succesful out of your country, as its such a rare thing, IE your cricket team. Go Lilly, and work your way through their mates…….

Notice how all the people sticking up for Lily Allen are inarticulate retards who obviously don’t know the meaning of the word ‘grammar’?

I wouldn’t have a problem with her. She could just be one of the many crappy talentless musicians which have been churned out since the year 2000. But why does she have to criticise other peoples’ work?

So, let’s see… some girl has a quick hit song… then she starts saying she’s better than giants like Bob Geldoff, Kylie and Madonna? I wish some people would just grow some brain cells and see that the only reason she puts down other peoples’ work is to make HERSELF look better because she knows she’s a pile of crap, and also to give her a controversial image - so that people pay more attention to her.

Lily… if you’re reading this… which you probably aren’t… because you probably can’t read… face it, you’re nothing big. Can you really see yourself releasing a ‘Greatest Hits’ album 10 years from now? In my opinion, the girl will be silenced by around May-time this year. So to all you Lily fans here saying “lolz ey dnt diss lily cuz u ant dun owt yerself lol lv ya bbz xxxx mwah”, your idol here is the only one guilty of ‘dissing (lolz)’.

But to all my fellow haters of “artists” who attack other musicians, don’t worry. She’s not upsetting all the legends whom she has put down. They’ve had worse insults in the past, from musicians who actually mattered. This one-hit-wonder girl who’ll be forgotten by next year… really… who cares apart from herself and her illiterate fans? Let her feel important for a while. Let her and her little brainless fans live in a world of their own. And let’s hope the next decade has some better music, eh? Pfft… indie… pfft… Lily Allen. Bah, Humbug.

Y_2renk, you make me really mad. you are a sad individual and need to have a really good think to yourself. maybe there is something wrong with your hearing. the frog, (lily allen) does not make good music, it is actually really really bad music. i dont hate lily allen, i dont even know the girl, but i do hate her music, it is pathetic.
