Lily Allen has revealed she plays up to a character when in public and is tired of not being herself. "I've had enough of being me. I've had enough of being Lily Allen, I want to be me now," Lily told the Times. "Whatever situation I'm in, whether it's going to the supermarket, the pub or a club, or in the back of a cab, people think they know me. And the reality is they don't. Lily Allen is a character I have no control over. I've got nothing to do with it except my face is the one that goes with it." Lily, who has said she will retire from music later this year, went on claim winning the British Female Solo Artist Brit award earlier this year meant "absolutely nothing" to her. "I got a BRIT Award recently. And that was something four years ago that I would have died for," she explained. "But when I finally got that award it meant absolutely nothing to me. Because I now know that the Brit Awards is a TV show. Record company executives make deals with a TV channel and the producers about who wins what award in exchange for performance time. So it's just become a non-award, like ‘thank you for this'."
In other news, Lily has apparently signed up to host a new reality TV fashion show planned to air later this year on Channel 4. "They've already started filming it," an insider told the Metro. "They're spending quite a lot on each show and there will be a couple of episodes following Lily in her new life in fashion."
