Lily Allen and Elton John got into a bit of a bitch-fight last night whilst co-presenting the GQ Men of the Year Awards. Lily, wearing a totally over-the-top gown and a unusually ridiculous hairstyle, was knocking back the champagne throughout the cermony, even keeping a bottle of it hidden under the presenters’ podium. Elton, wearing a boring old suit but sporting his usual ridiculous hair, was sober all evening. (Probably. He’s a boring old rocker. There’ll all sober these days.)
Here’s the best exchange of the night:
Lily: And now the most important part of the night…
Elton: What? Are you going to have another drink?
Lily: F*ck off Elton. I am 40 years younger than you and have my whole life ahead of me.
Elton: I could still snort you under the table.
Lily: F*ck off. I don’t know what you are talking about.
Here’s ten pointers for Lily Allen:
- Don’t argue with music legends, everyone will hate you.
- Don’t argue with someone well known for throwing tantrums; whatever you do, he’ll be able to throw an even bigger strop.
- Improve your arguing skills in general – you need to make snappier comebacks.
- There’s a limit to how many times you can say “f*ck off” in the space of 5 seconds.
- Your last comment is poor. You might just as well have gone “URRRR!! WHATEVA!!!!”
- Stop being annoying.
- The public aren’t going to wait forever for a second album.
Well, there’s seven anyway. The other three Lily’ll have to work out on her own. I can’t do everything for her.

When your father is Keith Allen you will always be fighting a losing battle.
This is 100% true. Nay, 110% true.
