Lily says she's an alcoholic

Lily Allen says she has become an alcoholic and wants to return to the studio, while her father Keith defends her against criticism of her recent blog posts about homesickness.

I bet she's not, though. I bet she's just been having a few too many. This is the news that Lily Allen has confessed to becoming overly dependent on the booze, and that she's turning to work to distract her from her addiction.

The singer says: "I'm an alcoholic now. It's not good and that's why I want to get back into the studio. I've actually pulled myself aside and said it will kill me if I keep it up. I've got to stop abusing myself because as far as I'm concerned every loon hates me now."

Her dad Keith has been jumping to her defence, meanwhile, over criticism of her recent homesickness and emotional bloggy outbursts. The actor says: "She felt down about going on tour in the US and has been alone on the road. That's very hard. The fans think it is a wonderful life when it's actually monumentally dull and spirit-breaking."
