Lily Allen going the same way as Britney Spears?

Lily Allen, who sacked her management team earlier this week, is causing concern amongst her friends, after she sacked her account & her live booking agent, the people that have been with her since the very beginning.

Friends are also worried as the "Smile" singer has also lost a dramatic amount of weight - something she claims to owe to hypnosis.

The star was seen earlier this week looking like a cross between a badly dressed male drag queen and a mentally ill patient. Click here for pictures.

According to British newspaper the Sunday Mirror, Lily's friends claim that her destructive behavior begun when she split from boyfriend Seb Chew last month.

A pal of the singer, told the publication " Seb was a stabilizing influence on Lily. Since they broke up, she's been living it up, and has lost loads of weight, as she has been putting partying before eating"

The friend added: "Her management were worried, then she axed them. She believes that she can make it alone. But she's living in cloud cuckoo land, Lily's record company had massive plans for Lily to crack America, but she cancelled her tour - claiming that she was 'homesick", she then had her visa revoked, after she boasted about taking drugs. Now she's on her own"

Friends of the singer also fear that Lily's new beau, 'Chemical Brothers' singer Ed Simmons is a bad influence on Lily when it comes to partying: "She boasted that she took her first ecstasy tablet at the Chemical Brothers' set in Glastonbury in 1997"

Meanwhile, Lily's dad, Keith Allen has warned his daughter to stay away from the 'hard' drugs, or she'll end up like her pop rival counterpart, Amy Winehouse, as he believes that Lily has taken cocaine and smokes marijuana - but has told her to avoid substances like heroin and Ketamine, otherwise she could end up like her pop rival Amy Winehouse.

When asked what advice Keith gives Lily, he replied: “Have you ever met Lily?"
