Lily Allen Downplays Behavior At GQ Awards
Lily Allen updated fans on her blog at MySpace on Friday (September 5), reacting to the criticism she received for being drunk and insulting Elton John at the GQ Awards earlier this week. Lily writes:
Elton John and I are friends. I was honored when Elton asked me to present the GQ Awards with him this year in association with Elton’s AIDS foundation. Not only was it for a good cause but who would say no to Elton.
I’m not defending my drunkeness because I don’t need to, I’m 23 it was an awards ceremony I drank the free champagne, how awful of me.
Trying to create a feud on the other hand, and trying to make me out as being some rude little girl with a drink problem is just unfair, Elton and I exchanged jokes and there were no hard feelings at all, infact neither of us gave it a second thought. It’s sad that an evening enjoyed by all had to ruined by some bitter journos again.
Alfie and Jamie had never been engaged, Jamie and I are the best of friends and I was just winding Alfie up, he’s my little brother and that’s what siblings do. Jamie wasn’t pissed off with me, if she was I would have known about it, believe me.
This isn’t meant to be a place for me to respond to journalists, but I am very grateful I have this page, if I didn’t then I would have absolutely no voice when it comes to this stuff.
