Lily Allen thinks British tabloids are sexist

posted by roberta — Dec 12th, 2007

Lily Allen is blasting British tabloids for being sexist stating that Amy Winehouse, Kelly Osbourne, and her faces are plastered on the papers after nights out partying, but male stars aren’t treated the same way.

Anyone want to give Lily a little privacy so that she can party until the break of dawn without anyone knowing?

No? Didn’t think so.

She says, “I don’t think (the tabloids) like young women doing well, or having fun. I mean, James Blunt goes out and gets on it and no one cares. We do that and it’s all over the papers. It’s sad. Those people who write for those gossip magazines, they’re not even writers. They can’t even punctuate.”

I beg to differ. I can punctuate. I’m not British either. Then again, I’ll publish anything and everything music or celebrity related.

  1. Yeah, well the N.M.E. quoted her misuse of the word gak, (slang for coke) they sold her down the river, to the tabloids, and chose a different magazine cover

  2. why don’t you just leave celebrities alone? I agree with lily, she deserves a private life. She should be able to go do whatever she wants without seeing it in the papers the next day. Woo, Lily allen!

  3. Agreed. You celebrity-trackers are leeches. You attempt, and worse, succeed at making a pathetic buck off others’ success. That you succeed is an indictment of all those sad people who very much enjoy distracting themselves through a peeping-Tom involvement in lives they prefer to their own. Look at it this way, no one will ever pass a law designed to promote and increase what you do, but they may well one day, if the courts have the guts to uphold it, outlaw what you do. Here’s praying for that day.
