Lily Allen wanted a fancy dress shop

Lily Allen wanted a fancy dress shopSinger Lily Allen had plans to open a fancy dress shop before she settled for a vintage store.

The "Not Fair" singer, currently expecting her first child, recently opened a vintage clothing store with sister Sarah Owens, reports contactmusic.com.

"When I got pregnant, I decided to wind down a bit. So Sarah and I thought it would be a good moment to open the shop we'd been thinking of doing for years. Originally, it was going to be a fancy dress shop but because of our passion for vintage clothing, we thought this would work better," said Allen.

She says the decision to open a high-quality vintage store came after she saw many girls dressed like her.

"One of my 'light bulb' moments came when I went to a Christmas party and five people had the same high street dress on as I had. Plus the quality doesn't compare," she said

Pregnant Lily Allen Living in Fear

Pregnant Lily Allen Living in FearPop star Lily Allen has revealed she's living in fear of miscarrying her baby with boyfriend Sam Cooper after losing her first child at the beginning of 2008.

The Smile singer admits her pregnancy has not been joyful so far - because she's haunted by her former baby tragedy. And she reveals her second pregnancy has been "really difficult".

Allen tells Britain's Sunday Times, "I came off the pill and, weirdly, a week later it happened. But then it was really difficult, I had complications.

Allen, the daughter of actor Keith Allen and screenwriter Alison Owen, explains, It's not that I didn't enjoy my childhood, because I did, but I suppose I was always quite fascinated by how a normal family would operate

"I had about a week and a half of really heavy bleeding and had to havelots of scans... I've been living in fear for the past three months".

But that hasn't put her off her motherhood dreams "I've probably been saying it since I was seven". The singer plans to retire from the music industry to concentrate on motherhood - and she's desperate to give her child the "normal" family upbringing she once craved.

Allen, the daughter of actor Keith Allen and screenwriter Alison Owen, explains, "It's not that I didn't enjoy my childhood, because I did, but I suppose I was always quite fascinated by how a normal family would operate.

"Everyone I knew when I was growing up came from divorced parents. I doremember when I had my first proper boyfriend at 16, going to his parents' house in Ireland and we all sat round had dinner together and I was really overwhelmed by the whole thing".

Lily Allen has slammed pop star search shows

Lily Allen has slammed pop star search showsThe 'Not Fair' singer claims the popular programmes, which include Simon Cowell's flagship UK programme 'The X Factor', are nothing more than prolonged adverts to sell records.

She wrote on her twitter page: "It's a tv show. a vehicle created for pop acts to sell more records at a difficult time of year. Don't delude yourself. (sic)"

Lily has had a good week winning the British Female Solo Artist prize at the BRIT Awards on Tuesday night (16.02.10).

But some of her twitter followers are unhappy with her win and think Leona Lewis - who shot to fame after winning the 2006 series of 'The X Factor' - was a more deserving nominee.

Lily Allen Checked Into Psychiatric Ward

Lily Allen

Lily Allen recently admitted to checking into a psychiatric ward after suffering a miscarriage.

In an interview with the Daily Telegraph’s magazine, Lily said she checked into a “nuthouse.” She said, "I stayed there for three weeks. I was really depressed because of the miscarriage and I’d kind of lost the plot a bit. It was quite a nasty time. Actually, it was quite nice being in there. No one could get to me; no one knew I was there."

"It's pretty hard to talk about it, but that Christmas I was at home with my family and Ed, and I wasn't drinking, and I just sat there knowing I was having a baby and I was in absolute bliss. Sitting round eating turkey, playing games, watching everybody getting drunk, and being really excited knowing this time next year I was going to have a baby...And I haven't."

It seems like Lily has the ability to act like an adult. The whole miscarriage ordeal must have put her over the edge. Hopefully that crazy stage is over!

Lily Allen And Older Beau Split

Lily Allen

Only last week they sparked engagement rumours after enjoying rapturous embraces while holidaying in the Caribbean. But the romance between Lily Allen and her multi-millionaire beau, Jay Jopling, is now over!

Lily, 23, was pictured wearing a large ring on her engagement finger after return from an idyllic holiday in St Barts, prompting speculation that she and 45-year-old art dealer Jopling were a serious item.

But a source close to Lily tells me: 'It's all over – it was basically just a holiday romance. Lily is going away for a year on tour, so it's unlikely she will have much time for a relationship.

The couple were photographed kissing in St Barts on New Year's Day but the romance is said to have upset Lily's father, comedian Keith Allen.

A spokesman for Lily said: 'She is very well and busy promoting her new record.'

Lily Allen Comments About Drugs

Lily Allen

Although she’s struggled with drug and alcohol abuse in the past, it doesn’t seem that Miss Allen has yet come to terms with the dangers associated with substance abuse. Lily Allen's recent comments about drugs not being so bad for people have deeply angered British anti-drug officials, and the UK’s Shadow Home Secretary Dominic Grieve.

She says, “The only story is that drugs are bad and they will kill you - you will become a prostitute, a rapist or a dealer. But that’s not true. I know lots of people who take cocaine three nights a week and get up and go to work. But we never hear that side of the story. I wish people wouldn’t sensationalise it. Some people are just bad at taking drugs.”

David Raynes, who from the National Drugs Prevention Alliance said: “When someone like Lily Allen makes these remarks she is only harming young people who will at some point in their lives have to make a decision about taking drugs. We already have a major drug culture in the UK and she is affecting that.”

A spokesman for drug and alcohol treatment charity Addaction agreed, telling The Sun: “These comments are misguided.”

Lily Allen has once again proved that she doesn’t exactly think twice before opening her mouth!
