Bye Bye Lily Allen

Just when I thought today was going to be as depressing as the weather is right now, I came across a bit of good news!

Lily Allen has apparently decided to 'disappear' for a while. Following wishes...I mean rumours, that she was going to quit the music scene Lily has confirmed that after March 2010 she will be taking a year or 2 off from music. During this time she is planning to set up a new record label and a fashion shop with her sister.

It hasn't been long since she decided to stop using the internet and blackberry as a means of enhancing her presence, saying "I've decided to stop being so hypocritical and consume things and pay for them. I buy music in vinyl and buy newspapers. I support the industry I'm in.

Riiight...ok...does she realise there have been at least 3 major formats to buy music on since vinyl? I guess they are not as 'cool' though hey?

I'm sure some of you will probably be thinking whoa why the hate?! Well I guess Lily is like olives covered in marmite, you either really dislike her or if you don't, you should!

My main issue is that to me she is one of these celebs who is famous for no particular reason, having no obvious talent. Yes she has released music that has sold masses but as someone I know put it best "she talks a good song". Can you even call that singing?

So anyway whether you are a fan or not there you go, Lily won't be around for a little while...excuse me whilst I just go and smile for a bit.
