Lily Allen has shocked some fans by branding herself "fat and ugly" - and "s**tter" than fellow British singing sensation Amy Winehouse.
The "Smile" singer, who last week criticized editors of fashion magazines for perpetuating what she calls the "size zero culture," made an impassioned turnaround on (where else) her MySpace page on Saturday.
She wrote:
"Fat, ugly and s**tter than Amy Winehouse - that is all I am. I'm on my own in America again."
"I used to pride myself on being strong-minded and not being some stupid girl obsessed with the way I look. I felt like it didn't matter if I was a bit chubby âcos I'm not a model, I'm a singer.
"I'm afraid I am not strong and have fallen victim to the evil machine. I write to you in a sea of tears from my hotel bed. I have spent the past hour researching gastric bypass surgery and laser liposuction."
In other words, the Star Jones treatment.
Speaking at the launch of her clothing range Lily Loves for British fashion chain New Look last Tuesday, she criticized fashion mags for perpetuating eating disorders, saying "Fashion editors can f**k off."
"Lots of them are responsible for the skinny issue."
"If fashion editors put bigger models in their magazines, then maybe girls wouldn't be sticking their fingers down their throats so much."
That's right, Nicole Richie. You got served.
"It makes me so angry, they should think more about what they're doing to the younger generation."
It would seem Maroon 5's Adam Levine - the man-whore who slept with Jessica Simpson, among many others - agrees with her view, even after he labelled her a âA S**t Spewer' recently.
Earlier this year, Allen called U.S. President George W. Bush "an a**ehole and a c**t" and referred to Americans as "backward" - and Levine isn't impressed with the young lady's candid international commentary.
He says, "S**t constantly spews out of her (Allen's) mouth. It's not attractive seeing someone spew s**t out of their mouth."
We feel the same way about Spencer Pratt.
"She's bigger in the UK," Levine continued. "But [here] her words still have some effect. Her talking s**t seems to be embraced."

lily allen's muic is ok, but she pisses me off. i think all AMERICAN citizens and even people who live in the US, but are not yet citizens have the right to express their opinion about the US. i don't like george bush and what he's doing to our country. lily allen is not an american citizen nor does live in the US. she has no idea what it's like to live here under our government. when she comes to the united states and becomes an american citizen i'll respect her opinion. lily allen would probably do best keeping her mouth closed because she just sounds like a stupid little naive girl.

Omg! this is so stupid! I'm totally with Lily! She says what most of england thinks and says to their friends! These magazines and articles just take anything and turn it into a whole big scandol! And omg America GET OVER IT!
I'm half american been there many many times and I agree with her! Don't so sensitive about it it's the impression your giving the world! not saying the UK's amazing but at least it's not america!
I'm just glad Lily says these things!
And i rly don't think she's trying insult Amy Winehouse! I think their just trying to make it look that way tho it's perfectly obvious she's not... Your all idiots! Get over your pride!

she didnt come over here dissing americans. (unless everyone in america is a fashion editor or dubbya bush that is) but she is 100% correct. bush is ass raping our country and fashion editors that put these herion sheek girls on their adds are the ones that are pressuring our youth of america to eat nothing and diet and be stick thin. i value lily allen for upholding her views no matter what people think. although they are only her opinions, and not facts, she makes a very strong point about the strong holds of our nation. so open your eyes and listen to what shes saying before you trash her size and music style..
besides amy winehouse has a nasty crack habit. and her face is falling off.

Why wont amy winehouse's face fall off already? shes the scum of all human beings.

i hate amy winehouse.. all her "art" is doing is making people think it's okay and normal or cool to mess up their lives. she should let all her music out when she's done with drugs if she ever makes it there and encourage people to get better or something beneficial. she is worthless at this point and she knows it but she's too lazy and selfish to do anything about it so she smokes crack to forget.

Lily Allen, was not insulting Amy Winehouse . SOMEOME ELSE IN A MAGAZINE MADE THE QUOTE > FAT UGLY AND SH**TIER THAN Amy Winehose, truth be told Mrs Allen and Amy Winehouse are friends it's been described that they get on well.Also Lily Allen, does not care for George Bush! this is a quote that was said once, and then circulated is several magazines Lily Allen has also said (on tape) that she quite likes AMERICA!
