Lily Allen: I don’t have an entourage - and won’t be doing the pop thing for long
Lily Allen has denied rumours that she has a big entourage to do her every bidding while on tour - and she doesn’t stay in fancy hotels either.
In Lily Allen: Still Alright?, a new documentary about her recent pop sucess, she says she only has two members of staff - an assistant who shares her hotel rooms and a guitar teacher: “Do you think they’d pay for me to have a make up artist to go round the world with me?”
“[And] I stay in Holiday Inns - they’re really flash.”
She also reiterates her plans to get out of the music business in a few years: “It’s about being happy and living in the day. It’s not going to last forever and in three years or five years time I’m going to be living in London looking for another job.”
“Most people who want to be a pop star really want to be a pop star, but it’s not something I want to be doing for the next 15 years.”
“I want to get married and have children and live in the countryside. It has never been about being a product for me, it is about being a singer and a songwriter. I don’t want to be a pop star.”
The documentary is set to be broadcast on Channel 4 on Sunday.

Lily Allen has the talent (as both a singer and a song writer) to make money, and hay nobody lasts ten years if they call you a ‘ pop star’ if she was labeled as singer/song writer (as it should be) then that would make a difference. Instead she’s in the same tragic category as someone she does not want to be, (Britney Spears) Britney Spears is a product,even if it was not what she wanted, She could have been strong enough (like our Mrs. Allen) and least tried to choose her direction.
