Lily's Current Mood: Better

Cheeky as she is, some of you were tempted into thinking Lil was taking the piss with her last MySpace blast. But her lips don't lie, and neither do her tears. Now she fills us in the source of her body-image blues. Last line is best. Via MySpace:

Sorry
Current mood: Better

Hi guys , I'm sorry if I worried anyone with the blog I wrote yesterday . I was feeling pretty sorry for myself , I've been reading all your comments and they have made me realise there is more to life than being thin ! So thank you . I think I was just having a hard time last week . After reading cheryl tweedys comments branding me a "chick with a dick". I was feeling pretty low and aswell as that, some of you might know I launched my clothing line for new look last tuesday , and seeing my picture in so many newspapers next to kate moss' , made me feel grotesque momentarily .

I know its a silly way to feel and I am incredibly proud of myself and my achievements over the past year, there are so many good things about my life . I really am incredibly lucky . I guess it shows how much of an effect the media can have on us young ladies . As for the amy winehouse bit , someone sent me a link to a picture blog where there were some paparazzi shots of my brother and I , and there were hundreds of comments from mean sad people , saying I was a fat ugly bitch and how much better amy is than I . Usually I ignore these things , but in my heightened emotional state I let them get the better of me . My mum has come out here to keep me company and I feel much better now , I sha'nt be getting any surgery , instead I will be eating lots of bread and pasta and thinking about what to write about for the next album . I really am touched and was quite surprised at the reaction the blog received and it definitely has restored my faith in humanity .

I know I've said bad things about people in the past , though the majority of them have been blown wayyyy out of proportion , but this i mean
Cheryl if you're reading this , I may not be as pretty as you but at least I write and SING my own songs without the aid of autotune . I must say taking your clothes off , doing sexy dancing and marrying a rich footballer must be very gratifying , your mother must be so proud , stupid bitch .

Glad your feeling better, Lily. Wanna know Amy's secret to staying thin? Not having enough teeth to eat! Best Week Ever's Chuck Nice offers: "I could go shopping for chinos in that gap." Cold.

i feel her pain. i bet she's not even technically overweight, and every comment about her is that she is fat (or that she's hot, it doesn't matter. but why can't we just talk about her music? it's always about the looks, isn't it?)
it's a cruel world out there...

Could someone leave her a Myspace comment explaining the proper use of the space bar?

Lilly Allen's music isn't too bad and i really dont care how she looks, but she is an annoying brat of the highest order.

Tweedy maybe a pretty face, but she's got no class to stoop down to Lilly's level by calling her a chick with a dick.
