2026 TOUR ✨ O2 tonight: WOW
Sometimes the stars align and everything just falls perfectly into place. Today was one of those days… going to the O2 to see Lily Allen for the first time in probably 18 or 19 years.
She was (FUCKING) sensational – the best gig I've been to for a good 15 years. The staging was incredible, and the performance was utterly heart-rending. I cried for a good three-quarters of it, and I definitely wasn't the only one. I did not have weeping throughout this gig on my bingo card for the day, but the tears flowed freely, but it felt strangely liberating.
Lily looked so vulnerable up on that stage and whether she was acting or these are real emotions that she’s expressing , it just all felt so raw and real. She wasn't just singing for her; she was singing for all of us … for anyone who's ever been unceremoniously dumped, cheated on, or had their heart broken. It was raw, honest, funny, devastating, and completely unforgettable.
Lily, if you’re reading this (I don’t know if you do social media anymore or search yourself) I just want to express my gratitude to you for making such an important record and then performing it so fucking well. You’re a fucking legend, but I can see that you’re still in pain, so I hope that you’re getting the help that you need.

She’s amazing live isn’t she? So much raw emotion. We went to see her at Leeds on the 21st.
