Ok... so it doesnt give a good impression but while we're at it lets have a dig at others that havent exactly been behaving in the drugs department:

George Michael
Pete Burns
Michael Barrowmore
John Lenon
Sigmund Freud
Judy Garland
Stephen King
Eminem
Frank Zapper
Sid Viscous
Most of pink Floyd
Lewis Carrol
Eric Clapton
Kurt Cobain
Marilyn Manson
Cortney Love
Salvador Dali
Carrie Fisher
Jimi Hendrix
Whitney Houston
Janis Joplin
Bob Marley
Richard Nixon
Pablo Picasso
Elvis Presly
The Rolling Stone
Charles Dickens
Sir Arthur Colan Doyle
Pope Leo XIII
Jack Nicholson
Shelly, poet
Sting
Fat Boy Slim
King George the V
Robert Lewis Stevenson
Bill Gates
Judy Garland
Peter Fonda
Thomas Edison
Nick Drake
The Doors
Winston Churchill
Queen Victoria
Tori Amos

and the list goes on........

Its a fact of life that people do drugs........ nobody is perfect. I would rather somebody spoke up and said they did them instead hide away and be the 'perfect' angel.

She forgot her lines but I'm sure she is not the first or last to do this. Just because this happened shouldnt reflect on how she is as a artist. If it repeated happens then yes, she would be classed as unprofessional. As least she has an edge.

Lily Allen isn't the most professional but that's what i personally like about her, i hate all this 'perfect, perfect' pretence that most artists put on whearas Lily Allen doesn't. Everyone forgets their words, it's going to happen and maybe it could have been helped is she weren't drunk but she was and she forgot her words, i don't see how that makes her a bad person. I personally really like her and i love her songs.

Also, as kizwiz has said in the post with some of Lily's songs on, she hasn't written her songs as a bad person, her songs are more real and i bet most of the UK could relate to her songs more than songs like 'A moment like this' (that's not a dig at Leona or the song as personally i love both) but yeah, i love Lily Allen and her song 'Alfie' could be about so many people i know, some that live in my road. Glad she is number 1 and also glad Pink, James Morrison, Will Young and Lemar are there.
