Beth Ditto hates Posh, Kate and comparing people to numbers | News | Guardian Unlimited Music

And finally, Lily Allen can't afford a flat. At least not in London. At least not, we suspect, a nice one in a fashionable area of London.

In a weird combo, she appeared on political show This Week, hosted by Andrew Neil, Andrew Neil, Andrew Neil - apparently, if you say his name three times into a mirror, his masters must summon him back to hell - where she talked about how "money is a massive issue."

OK?

"I've been doing what I do for a few years now, and I've been paid pretty well for it, but even I'm not in a position to buy a one-bedroom flat in the city I grew up in. How much harder is it going to be for other people my age?"

Fair point, but we reckon she could probably afford something in Harlesden if she so chose. Which might help should the singer be looking for inspiration for any future tales of inner-city living.

((ALL TOGETHER NOW: Aaaaaaaaw, diddums!!!))
