Via: Idolator It's becoming increasingly clear that Lily Allen hates everyone and everything that she comes into contact with. The latest recipient of her ire: iTunes. The following quote is pulled from a recent interview on Sound Opinions: "...iTunes [is] kind of bullying people into corners by making sure they have extra, you know, extra songs so they can put them on the front page. And they won't [advertise] your album unless you kind of give them extra material and so on. And we've kind of been backed into a corner. We want to do this remix, but the remix isn't ready, but they need it delivered by today and blah blah blah. So I said, 'Okay, fine, give iTunes the rubbish remix, and then what I'll do I'll get the people remixing it to do a good remix and then we'll give it away for free on MySpace." Oh man, Steve Jobs is gonna be pissed! Seriously though, I challenge Lily Allen to say something nice about someone--anyone really, a family member, whatever--during one of her interviews. I don't think she's capable of doing it.
In her defense this seems like a valid, reasonable complaint unlike her last few unkind words for other artists.

this is true. but she's still pretty annoying.

It's a slow news day....besides, Lily Allen opening her mouth=entertainment.

noel gallagher vs. lily allen...who would win?
mk
Oh, easily Noel. Lily's more young and spunky than ol' Noel, but Noel's older and wittier, and could tell the child to back the **** off.
China
i feel like think he's not above dropping a woman with the ol' one-two, either if it came to that.
mk
^^language skills are awesome.
mk
She's an idiot. I agree with her above statement though.
John Miner
i think Lady Sov and Lily Allen would be a good matchup. My money is on Sov though cause i can see her doing something illegal to win .
Dave Park
So basically Lily Allen wants to have it both ways: She'll play along with iTunes to sell more songs but then "protest" the Apple policy by offering "rubbish" to her fans. Isn't that a bit spoiled, greedy and unethical?Some artists may feel that they're being bullied, but I think Apple is doing a service to fans by not taking promotional money from the record companies. All the CD stores require huge payments to give artists prominent "end cap" placement, which means that many worthy indie artists are totally shut out. Apple at least gives a chance to lesser-known artists.
