The Littlest Things singer — who has dated art dealer Jay Jopling and Chemical Brothers DJ Ed Simons — admits a good break-up gives her the inspiration to put pen to paper and come up with a new song.

“I’ve actually broken up with boyfriends for inspiration,” the 23-year-old tells British magazine the Radio Times. “When I hit a period of not being able to write music, I get up and walk away. It’s pretty mean but it’s true.”

    It’s not a true story, if the Radio Times interview is on paper the entire interview was made up. Lily Allen wouldn’t say this on tape, and the video can’t be found. She’s had 3 serious relationships in the past eight years. Some of her songs have already been explained away, people will have to give up on Who’d of known, Not Big, and Not Fair. People want to know who those songs are about but, she’s not talk”in the press will just have to suffer.
