Lily Allen's Paparazzi Crush

British pop star LILY ALLEN looks set to follow in BRITNEY SPEARS' footsteps by dating a photographer - the singer is harbouring a crush on a member of the paparazzi.

Spears famously dated snapper Adnan Ghalib, who was a member of her ever-present paparazzi following, and their on/off relationship came to an end earlier this year (08).

Allen, who is currently in Los Angeles recording her second album, has been dogged by photographers throughout her U.S. trip - but she admits she doesn't mind being followed as there is one snapper in particular who has caught her eye.

She writes on her Myspace.com internet page, "Seriously I have never been followed like we were today, there were literally 20 cars of razzi (paparazzi) with us.

"Not that I'm complaining, they were perfectly pleasant, in fact we had a bit of a laugh with them and I quite fancied one of them."
