Lily Allen (full name Lily Rose Allen) is a pop songwriter and singer, based in London, England who has a great musical taste and an original cheeky life style.
Lily Allen left school when she was 15 years old to concentrate only on her music. She created a blog to post her demos, and one day she realized she was famous: tons of people started to visit her blog. Lily Allen was amazed.
She is mostly known for songs such as “Smile” and “LDN” and because Lily is the daughter of the actor Keith Allen and the film producer Alison Owen.
