Also a story in the DM

Now I'm not here to slate sex workers.

But men who use prostitutes are in my eyes abusers. I have read on here lots when men use prostitutes the advice is LTB.

Cannot believe the comments on instgram supporting lily. Her behaviour is disgusting.

She'd wrote Confused

🙄

Any publicity is good publicity especially when you have a book out soon

MrsChollySawcutt · 02/09/2018 10:34

Handy that the 'story' had to come out on a Sunday, typically the day for big celeb news stories.

Such blatant self promotion trying to whip up attention for her tawdry tell all book. Usually these books hallmark of a last ditch attempt to grab cash as a career ends. Let's hope so.

Isn't it weird the way intersectional feminists include everyone apart from those horrible women who don't agree with them?

Intersectional feminism is now about men and the women who service them.

She’s got a book to hawk, hasn’t she?

Birdsgottafly · 02/09/2018 10:56

AlexaAmbidextra , have all the campaigns about not using "Girl" as an insult passed you by? Perhaps so when you are prepared to call a Mature Woman a 'silly little girl', which is misogynist.

""They must know they are paying very sad unhappy and depressed and broke people to do things they don't want to do""

How is that statement any worse than LA branding Prostitutes as stupid? Not everyone who works in the sex industry is as you describe. Especially the better paid Escorts.

Brilliant description! That's it in a nutshell.

pigsDOfly · 02/09/2018 11:02

Doubt they're doing much sleeping. Do you mean she's having sex with prostitutes?

HolyMountain · 02/09/2018 11:07

I listened to her on Sunday Brunch a few months back , she put herself up alongside Adele and Amy Whitehouse as singers ‘breaking down barriers ‘ , I’m paraphrasing but she ,in no way, is up there with those two.

A hugely inflated opinion of her own talent.

AsAProfessionalFekko · 02/09/2018 11:08

I think she can't sing for toffee.

Takesthefeckingbiscuit · 02/09/2018 11:12

Juells and Namechanged - both spot on.
Although Lily Allen obviously has some status and power from her money and fame, I am reluctant to give her too much of a slating. Her story has presumably been very useful to a bunch of men who have profited from newspaper sales and others who have used this to increase the validity of narratives that show prostitution to be problem free fun for all. How convenient!

Calling women girls, in general, is misogynist. ie ('that group of girls over there' when referring to a group of 30 year old women) Calling men "girls" because being a girl is lesser is misogynist.

That post was specifically saying this person was acting like a spoilt child. Female children are girls or at least they used to before Instagram and tumbler. Not the same.

dinosaurkisses · 02/09/2018 11:25

I actually quite her music, which is what I find so frustrating. The lyrics to a lot of the songs on her Sheezus album are very pro-woman, and her love songs would do a good job of describing a normal, strong relationship.

Then she goes and opens her mouth and says something that makes it obvious she is a total tithead. It’s almost like self-sabotage.

Sarahandduck18 · 02/09/2018 11:29

Is this some kind of weird coming out thing like Kevin spacey did?

BlancheM · 02/09/2018 14:22

Oooh she's such a boundary smashing maverick isn't she? Just more pitiful attention seeking as per. Such a deluded, hypocritical grubby woman.

southeastdweller · 02/09/2018 15:15

God only knows what her kids are going to go through at school in the coming weeks because of their mother's tawdry behaviour.

I'm not surprised there's only three pages of posts. If a similar publicity-hungry celeb Dad had admitted to paying for sex, I can imagine a lot more indignation and disgust.

AsAProfessionalFekko · 02/09/2018 15:30

Is it even true? She does come out with some nonsense - I remember her Grendfell 'insights' which were just nonsense and caused a lot of upset.

MrsMWA · 02/09/2018 15:39

Pics or it didn’t happen.

I find it hard to believe any paid sex worker give full informed consent. However I am told there are some so maybe more information is needed. Lily Alan needs to stop over sharing now she has kids though.

Of course there are sex workers who give full informed consent! Many work independently or are escorts who pay a small commission to an agency. Don't run away with the idea they are all druggies under the influence of ruthless pimps - many are of course but plenty are not and you'd never guess they were prostitutes.

Lily Allen does need to keep private things private if not for her own sake but for that of her children. What they don't know won't hurt them.
Why on earth she would pay another woman to be with her I don't know unless she was lonely, scared and just wanted company. Not something to make public though.

I don't understand her.

BonnieF · 02/09/2018 16:12

Thick, talentless, virtue-signalling self-publicist in ‘book to sell’ shocker...

IhopeyoulikeNavantoo · 02/09/2018 18:38

I don't care who she sleeps with. I think as long as the adults are consenting, who cares? She should probably keep it under her hat for the kids though.

continuallychargingmyphone · 02/09/2018 18:42

Some of the disgust here seems a bit OTT

Is it because she’s a woman?

NapQueen · 02/09/2018 18:45

continually there was a similar level of disgust for Wayne rooney too so that she is a woman is irrelevant.

continuallychargingmyphone · 02/09/2018 18:49

Fair enough Smile but a celebrity doing this isn’t exactly unusual.
