Lily Allen dropped by Agent Provocateur

Pint-sized singer Lily Allen has reportedly been dropped by sexy lingerie company Agent Provocateur.

The singer-turned TV presenter - who famously slimmed down from a UK dress size 12 to a size 8 last year, is said to be "gutted" at being axed as the face and body of the company after just four months.

Allen, 22, was allegedly dropped following a row between the firm's bosses Joe Corre and Serena Rees, who are embroiled in a bitter divorce split.

A source told British newspaper The Sun: "Serena loves Lily and thinks she is young and sassy. But Joe wasn't keen and canned all the pictures."

Agent Provocateur insist the photographs of Lily posing in a corset and stockings may still appear in magazines.

A spokesman for the company said: "We haven't made any decisions."

Lily was unveiled as the new spokesmodel of Agent Provocateur last November and reportedly received a six-figure sum for the deal.

A source said: "Lily was so excited about being the face of this campaign. This feels like a big demotion."
