Lily Allen demands 1 million for an interview

Popstar Lily Allen has promised TV host Piers Morgan that she will tell all about her headline grabbing miscarriage on his talk show but only if he agrees to donate 1 million pounds to a charity. The negotiations between Allen and Morgan happened on the micro blogging website Twitter. Morgan was trying to persuade the ‘Smile’ hitmaker to be a guest on his ITV chat show ‘Life Stories’ but Allen put down her demand. The ‘Fear’ singer asked the talk show host how much he would pay to have her on his show to which Morgan responded, "Do you mean how much do you have to pay me for this career-enhancing interview?" Allen clarified that she could only justify coming on his show by giving money to a charity that "helps women to overcome the kind of grief that I have had to experience". The host who is set to make his US debut on the CNN show ‘Piers Morgan Tonight’ then suggested he could offer her a fee of a million Chilean pesos, USD 2500.

But the singer, who got engaged to boyfriend Sam Cooper on Christmas day, stood her ground and said he would have to offer a million pounds to SANDS, the stillbirth and neonatal death charity, for her to appear on his show. "Those are my terms. I’ve got no interest in coming on your show, you’ve been asking me for years," said Allen.

The Twitter conversation coincided with the lead up to Piers’ CNN show, which will air in US on Monday night. The first guest on Piers Morgan Tonight, which succeeds Larry King’s popular show, will be Oprah Winfrey.

British singer Lily Allen loses her baby

British pop star Lily Allen, who was around six months pregnant, has lost her baby. The 25 year old singer previously had a miscarriage when she was dating Chemical Brothers star Ed Simons in 2008. "It is with great sadness that we have to confirm that Lily Allen and Sam Cooper have lost their baby," said her spokesman.

"The couple ask that their privacy be respected and that they be left alone at this deeply distressing time. No further comment will be made."

Lily Allen takes help to cope with depression

Singer Lily Allen is taking the help of a therapist to come out of the depression she has been suffering since her miscarriage in 2008.

The "Smile" singer revealed that now she has learned to spot the symptoms when she is falling into depression and has taken a month off to consult with the therapist to cope with it.

"I work with a therapist on a regular basis. I’m quite capable of noticing when I’m taking a turn for the worse. Then I decide not to work for the next month, and I take time to concentrate on myself. I had to do that in January 2008 after my miscarriage," said Allen.

Allen, who vowed to retire from pop music, says she never lets negative thoughts come around her and knows how to get out of them.

"I haven’t had to call my therapist recently but, if I felt there were repetitive negative thoughts going around in my head, I’ve had enough mental history to know to call someone for help. It’s negative thoughts about the world and things going on around me, I can generally write that off as a temporary bout of depression. But if the negative thoughts are about me, then it gets a bit more serious," added Allen.

Lily Allen denies pregnancy rumours

She has made public her desire to have a baby, but pop star Lily Allen has denied that she is already pregnant with her first child.

The rumours began when the ‘Smile’ hitmaker was spotted shopping at a pharmacy, sporting a visible bump beneath her loose-fitting top.

But the 25 year old has confirmed that there is no bun in the oven yet.

"I am not pregnant FYI," tweeted Allen. She had earlier vowed to give up her music career for five years because she wants to start a family with boyfriend Sam Cooper, a painter and decorator.

"I’d like to have a child within a year. It’ll be a minimum of four or five years before I make a record again," she had said recently.

Despite being one of UK’s most successful female artists, selling more than 2.4 million copies of her first album, Allen says the idea of settling down and having children is more of a priority.

She’s only been dating her 34 year old boyfriend for nine months but they are set to start trying for a baby right away.

"I’d want to be really hands-on for the first two or three years of having a little one. I don’t want to leave them," Allen said.

After suffering from a miscarriage three years ago with ex boyfriend Ed Simons, Allen has made it well known that settling down and raising a family away from the media spotlight is her goal.

The 24-year-old confessed she has had enough of music for the time being as she recently wrapped up the festival season at Bestival.

"I’m not going to record and tour again for quite a while. I finish up my gig dates in March and I’ll be ready to do something else,” said the singer.

"I’ve been on the road for four years and I’ve given my voice a real run for its money. I’m struggling, so I’m going to try something new," she added.

The ‘Smile’ hitmaker will play the lead role in ‘Reasons To Be Pretty’ penned by writer and director Neil LaBute, and the star is also taking acting lessons with a teacher from posh drama school RADA.

She revealed: "The play is about themes close to my heart, things I touch on in my track The Fear, about the really damaging cult of beauty among young girls.

"They want me to play the lead, which is amazing and terrifying. There’s a lady from RADA coming round to my house to train me up a bit. I’m always up for a new challenge."

The "Smile" hitmaker was chosen to front a campaign for Chanel’s high-end handbag range, and Allen has now revealed she will indeed be stepping in front of the camera.

The singer is said to be nervous about becoming the face of a fashion brand.

"I have been doing modelling for a company. I am quite unnatural in front of the camera, especially when you are working with fashion photographers just because the nature of the people they are used to working with is very different from me," she said.
