JumpinJack AJ Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 I can't remember if other people on this board like her. I've always thought she was one of the more interesting artists of recent years. Maybe going thru' this will help her get her life more on track. -------------------------------------------------------- Lily Allen Opens Up about Her Miscarriage and Eating Disorder Lily Allen is finally opening up for the first time about the tragic loss of her unborn baby last year. The Daily Mail is reporting that Allen has stayed out of the spotlight since her miscarriage in October, but she finally spoke about the heartbreak in the U.K.'s Channel 4 documentary 'Lily Allen: From Riches to Rags.' Allen and boyfriend Sam Cooper were left devastated when she suffered a miscarriage six months into her pregnancy, and her pain was evident during the TV show. Allen said, "It was a really long battle, and I think that kind of thing changes a person." Approximately one week after her miscarriage, Allen was rushed to a hospital requiring emergency treatment for septicaemia (blood poisoning). The 'Smile' singer also revealed she suffered from an eating disorder. "I used to vomit after meals. It's not something I'm proud of. But, I tell you what, a lot of people came up to me telling me how great I looked and I'd be on the cover of every magazine." She continues, "I thought I looked good and it was great to be able to try on clothes and feel a million dollars. But I wasn't happy, I really wasn't. I would love to be the skinniest minniest person in the world but I can't do that without being unhappy -- I like food." Allen's final words on the subject were, "I'm a pop star, not a model. Don't make me feel s**t for not being really skinny and having an eating disorder." Allen got engaged to Cooper on Christmas Day last year in Bali. The couple have been dating for two years, and Cooper reportedly proposed on the balcony of the couple's hotel while the sun set over the Indian Ocean.

Turntable Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 (edited) I feel very sorry for her ofocurse. I however do think she isn't talented at all. I like one or two songs, but that has nothing to do with her realy. I heard her sing for real and, well, I wouldn't call it singing. She seems like a nice person, but when it comes to her being a singer/artist/musician she's just a tool that some Producers and A&R's use to sell ringtones. It's just simple, mindlesss, predictable & repeating stuff with lots of work on the computer behind it.
