I love Lily Allen. I love Lily Allen. I love Lily Allen. I love Lily Allen.
OIlie Warren sameee
@Marcus crotus yes
"When I'm a big boy I'ma write for VICE" hehe
Actually like, so much respect to her. A celebrity who actually cares and does something for other people and the world. She‘s so badass
I love how fearless she can be when it comes to expressing her thoughts
This is an interview, not an agenda, what would be the point in unsubscribing because they voice an opinion that you don't agree with? You guys are literally creating a bubble for yourselves smh
Yeah there's no agenda there's no reason anybody does this all this money is spent randomly and the people are just you know average people with normal views that aren't being aired on a higher profile platform with certain demographic access and created by a group with highly insular beliefs themselves, man i'm sleepy zzz
Vice is vastly left wing. There is definitely an agenda. Stop being so naive.
Yeah, I'm sure it's just a conincedence that Vice's interviews only involve people that tow the feminist 'progressive' line. I will eagerly await the interviews with Richard Spencer and Sargon of Akkad.
Space Leopard Richard Spencer is likely controlled opposition. They have argue right winged people, but it’s not passive like this, it’s demonization and “gotcha-tactics.” Vice is for sure left wing. They literally have a show called “slutever” and others glorifying drug use.
Nabbehh I'm unsure Richard Spencer would be "controlled opposition" when he's the least repulsive of the white nationalist swamp.
I dislike many of her political opinions but it's amazing how inoffensive Lilly's interview was. Mass-disliking videos about her only validates her narrative and proves you are an obvious troll. Vice actually just baited you by putting "Trolls" in the title.
She just voiced her general opinion which was very grounded and talked about her music. Why are people so mad? Grow up lol
Whats with all the hate, shes just speaking her mind and most of things are quite true, people losing sense of humour and sense of reality
neychev Are you serious? Those people are expressing their opinion!
She's a strong willed, opinionated woman, that scares the shit out of people.
neychev she blamed the rape victims in rotherham who were abused by refugees .she tweeted that they would have been raped anyway
She has such cohesive, well informed ideas. I can see her frustration with the general, less informed public refuting every one of her opinions. Well done for your perseverance, your public voice is truly something to look up to!
Charli Smith I love your sarcasm.
one person is enough to make you unsubscribe? and the right calls the left snowflakes LMAO
10 quid says they werent ever subbed
People are Snowflakes. We are all hypocrites - doesn't matter what our politics are. I've been subbed to vice since their Ukraine coverage in 2014. I might not agree with all their politics. But I didn't hit the unsub button as if I was having a walkout tantrum. Because to me I think it's important to see the other sides opinion and reasoning - I don't think you should feel safe and surround yourself with only like-minded people. Stay uncomfortable. Disagreements can breed solutions (as counter intutive as that sounds).
Dominic Fitch well said...
Lol the right unsubscribe but if this were the left they'd try to get the channel shut down
One person? LOL, as if Lily Allen is the only mong Vice makes videos on.
Why is there so much hate? Lilly Allen is an iconic pop idol, whether you like her or not, she's not of the ilk of the usual vacuous pop star.
Crystal Logik and who says she or anyone else shouldn't express an opinion about politics? Please don't tell me you think only certain people in society are deemed worthy of expressing opinions. And as for talking down, mate grow up. If you feel threatened or demeaned by anyone expressing an opinion you've got issues with free speech. Just post a video, article, or blog (or comment here i guess) and rebut her points.
Hahaha. Yeah, she only throws around buzzwords to appeal to her pea-brained shitlib fans, calls an entire class racist, and preaches about equality from up her ivory tower of privilege. That's so unique among celebs, like a breath of fresh air.
yea cause being a pop idol is so hard she had all her songs written for her it may come as a surprise to you but not everyone has the same opinions and when someone is a pop star loved by millions i believe they have a responsibility to keep her opinion to themselves
Ya'll bashing her left and right in the comments but you still took the time to click on this video and type 👀
And what's your point, exactly?
Wow, there is absolutely no logic in this comment lmao.
Dana Gawlak i clicked because i actually didn't know lily allen's political stance and was curious to find out. And we type so that the radical left knows we are here and we will not let their agenda be carried out if we can help it.
I may also take the time out and stop to spit on fake homeless people. Its called rough justice.
So you're saying that people should bash people without taking the time to see what they said first?
I love Lily Allen! So glad she's back with some new tunes. Her honesty is such a treat.
why yall hatin? shes cute and seems down to earth
Haaahaahaha down to earth . Nice one :D
exactly haahah
10/10 would bang
omg that soo sweet awwww
Überfat Kraych

I am really happy with all the unsubscribe comments from reactionaries. Hopefully in future videos there will be more thoughtful and rational discussions in the comment section, instead of all the emotional and hateful comments.
That would be amazing.
I don't understand why people are being so hateful in the comments.. She seems like a pretty chill and caring person
tigana Been hella trolls in the Vice comments forever. Some good criticism as with any video, but yea, usually a lot of it's garbage.
tigana chill drug addict
Because the left is not really popular. And for obvious reasons.
I know I totally agree but we have alot jealous ppl about, who not like money or success unless it's their own lol I'm no fan but she speaks her honest views which I find is very rare these days as ppl are scared to speak out about anything.
Being left-wing puts a target on people because of the way it's handled in the media, even those in support of it make it seem very dramatic. And given the presence of politics on the internet these days, where it does begin to feel like everybody has an agenda (which isn't inherently a problem), it's hard to not form an opinion on either side of the political spectrum. So when some people are subjected to the most prominently addressed views (for the sake of this example, leftist views), it's going to trigger a sort-of
rebellion complex in them. They may not want to be told what to think, so they react in a pretty blatant way.
From my experience, the political views in the UK aren't as radical as they are in the US, and a lot of US media dominates the internet. So this creates a bit of an unbalance in how we express our views, and in-turn how others perceive them. It begins to create the illusion that we all know what we're talking about because we see people saying stupid things publicly, and it gives us a chance to take a stance that's maybe bordering the extreme in retaliation. Then combine all of that with the way most people act on the internet; they don't REALLY want discussion, they just want their views to be heard, and a lot of the time they want to tell other people that they're wrong. Seeing the worst in each other online is pretty common, and acting with a bit of a gut response is typical. It's easy to disagree with somebody, call them stupid and continue with your own life, so why bother putting in the effort to try and understand each other?
I feel so much of what she is saying. Ive realized shes always cared about the people, you can hear it in all of her albums
West Yorkshire Seems to me that you hate her but you dont know her. If you have any type of intelligence or common sense you can see that her music is filled with sarcasm and she gives us a full view of what life is generally like for most people caught up in the mess of everyday society. She talks about the welfare of the people and the direction in which humanity is going while using some of her own experiences to teach a lesson. Before you pass judgments know what your talking about. Mkay
DB Cooper Grow up honey, you're just following the crowd, the safe mainstream opinion, who's the one easily manipulated
Lily Allen is amazing. Why all the dislikes?
what a smart and pleasant woman!
She seems chill, not sure what all the collective hate is about.
yeah, why are people hating?
VeganRevolution how she comes across in the media.
She comes across as human in a hopkins age where everyone has to say cruel things about migrants.
she thinks equality of outcome is a good idea. "why cant everyone just be picked based on their gender or race instead of individual traits"
Because ideologically much of the Vice audience objects more to views that are socially progressive/left wing than self identifying neo-Nazis.
I remember being well into Lilly when I was like 15 - 18.. Still into her now I'm 25.. *Lilly Allen for British Prime Minister*
and what party would she run for cause if she tries to enter the labour party corbyn is liable to confiscate all the houses she is not currently occupying
She’s actually 33 or 32 years old . She’s already middle age
Shawnee C mate, in what world is 33 considered middle aged?? Try more 50-55. Jeeeze😂😂
Fifteen you were a snowflake you are 25 now and still a snowflake
I fucking love Lily. She's always been so open, chill, and down to earth.
“Really, it’s about engagement, and because they can’t say anything, they’re forced to say nothing - they’ve got to say something, but the something can’t really be a thing.” Good points, nice insight..
10/10 Lily Allen. Sam Wolfson 2/10. Sorry but stop saying "Like" every second word, you aren't a Kardashian.
she looks different and waaayyy older omg. she looks great
Hahaha grown men getting angry about Lily Allen
Hahaha Grown Man affected by other grown men to the point said grown man has to leave a comment about it
What’s wrong with adults having an opinion?
Jon Favreau get back to checking people's badges happy
Hahaha Grown Man affected by other grown man, commenting on other grown men, to the point he has to leave a comment about it.
You see how this dumb logic just creates some sort of horrific inception loop.
Doesn't seem affected whatsoever to me.
I just love her!! She‘s sooo real. Hard to find these days! You do you giiiiiirrrrllll
Go Lily. So intelligent, caring and real. My god, the amount of shit this woman gets from the press and public is unbelievable. She deserves so much better. Massive respect to her.
this bad driving is making me uncomfortable.
12:23 - 12:35 pretty much sums it up.....
Ok can someone explain to me why everyone seems to hate Lily Allen? I only know her for her music, nothing else.
akm960 I’m a huge fan actually and I’ve wondered this for so long too. But I guess it’s because people hate being preached to, especially by celebrities. Lily has also done many things that people can find distasteful.
Super late but, best late than nevvaaaaa. Just wanted to say Thank you for this lovely & genuine interview/viddy! Well done in all ways! 🙏🙏🙏🙏 LOVE LOVE LOVE LILY, STILLLL!!!
Always Loved Lilly she a real one💯 does Lilly fancy’s Giggs awww❤️
Doesn’t help that she’s already hated but she said some real shit here.
Why is she hated? I've been a fan of her music for a while but I'm in the US so we never hear about her in the news or anything here.
i don't hear shit at all...she's speaking the truth
Matthew Ace Didn’t mean it literally mate
GD FR people often hate what they dont understand
sorry i generally dont understand why this is bad? can you explain to me. thanks from new zealand (:
Lol what's with this outrage brigade in the comments section? Where is this video being spread that all the haters swarm around and pretend they are unsubscribing?
I’m in love, how I’ve waited for her to be in the public eye again. My QUEEN.
Yes she needs to get back in the spotlight we need her. She’s been declining in popularity
Fair play to her, I don't think enough ppl are honest these days. It seems most ppl are scared to speak there minds. Alot what she said is true imo. I not use Twitter so I not know everything this lady said in past but in this short video she spoke alot sense.
being Honest is Good Being a massive Hypocrite not so much
4th AmiGo I think people like hearing their own voices and think that they're being honest when they are really just being pretentious hypocrites
To speak ur mind, it helps to av a brain?!😏
Ken Davies tbh I think this lady has alot more talent & brains than both of us combined lol . To judge someone cause there open up with there views is a shame. Society to quick to judge & then label ppl. So what ? Lily may not be always right but u tell me one person who's opinions are 100% correct. Nobody's perfect ! We all make errors, but Id rather make errors than sit in a dark room scared to have a opinion.
Random Dude hypocrite coz she has money ? Or cause her opinion not fit in with her life style of having money. Omg if u have money get rid of quickly as u can only have opinion if u poor with no purpose lol. I'm no fan of this lady but doesn't mean I shoot her down everytime she may say anything. Remember it's a free world with free speech if u don't like it then move on stop being so precious lol it's only words ....
Lily has opinions just like us.. We salute you Lily..
She's a very controversial popstar.
Don’t get how ppl can’t handle a musician giving their political opinion, it dosent matter if u disagree with her views but the amount of abuse she gets is vile when she’s just being a genuine person
Lily, the same thing happened to me as far as being very nice and not being treated very well....
I would enjoy engaging in a studio session with Lily. She has the perfect energy.
Wow (owen wilson)
li lif3 I met owen wilson and the dudes a sad boy
li lif3
I personally find that her views on current affairs are crazier than a road lizard.
h3h3?
(X or whatever..like..actually..whatever)
What do you mean Owen Wilson?
I dated a girl cause I thought she looked like Lilly Allen... she stabbed my heart and broke my back.
Crowded Veins this was the inspiration for the smile video
Trigger Bang has spoken to me in a way no song has in such a painfully long time. To me thats the most stunning comeback ever,
to make somebody not only be like OH LILLY IS BACK AND SOUNDS SO GOOD
but step back like, damn this is the advice I had to teach myself the hard way too
Sketchy Ginger yes trigger bang and come on then
She is so real. I love her music.
I adore her, shes real, articulate funny and means what she says
She is the best. Always loved her honesty. Don't always agree with her point, but agree with her delivery.
I love her music and that she fights for others
David Saunders and what’s your fav songs by her
Respect for the lady! Very funny and talented
Swarms of triggered right wingers incoming.
Crystal Logik so you're not a right-winger? come on
I Love you Lily! everything you say is the truth, your new album is amazing
Why all the thumbs down? People just don't know about Lily?
This video was worth it just for watching people go REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE in the comments.
I got cancer reading this
How do you type with those whale flippers ?
reeeeee
Normies died, people lied.
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
I know this is (very) trivial, but the amount of times the interviewer say's 'like' in this piece is infuriating 😅
But like uh it's like uhh he's kinda like uhh annoying like...
Her brother is Alfie Allen who plays Theon Greyjoy in GoT. It must be strange for the siblings how she use to eclipse her brother but now I’d argue more people see him than her worldwide.
She seems very nice, warm and honest. Not always been a fan but she’s certainly likeable despite some questionable smoke salmon politics. Voice goes from street to posh quite a lot and she’s driving a top of the range Mercedes....Fair enough for coming out and speaking your views though - that’s admirable and brave.
She’s great. Very pessimistic, but her hearts in the right place.
Cartercus she's not pessimistic, she's just British lol
She’s definitely not pessimistic. Us British would just call her a “realist”😂
She’s just real. That’s the difference. I love her, she’s hella relatable and I love how she’s stayed true to herself.
She blamed the grooming victims in rotherham ....her heart is not in the right place there
I love you Lily Allen. Please continue to be you and relase more music 💜
she is so here and now, like, we should learn from her experiences and stuff
How many times used Sam Wolfson the word like?
Wow haven’t seen her in a minute! Still very pretty😍💜
Chiemeri You too
L
Pretty ugly.
Ryan I bet you've lady issues.
Jade I bet you have issues with men.
She reminds me of Russel Brand, someone who's career sheltered them from politics and is only discovering it now, and therefore she has a shallow two-dimensional view of how the world works, the kind of views I had when I was fifteen.
I think they've always both been interested in politics but only now can use their voice..both equally respectful
Vice you guys should do a doc. On dexies in Canada it seems like everyone has that stuff
long time no see, really looking forward to see her drop her album
Jonathan Holmquist it’s amazing her music in general is great
On behalf of the UK I'd like to apologise for Lily Allen
The British Bulldog me too mate
The British Bulldog she's an embarrassment.
The British Bulldog apology not accepted. This chick is mental.
God Emperor Trump yep. That's exactly what she said. On twitter as well for everyone to see.
I'll apologize for Amy Schumer on behalf of the US. Now we just need a Canadian to apologize for VICE.
She's still around?
Use your music as a voice.. the best song you made was the fear because it articulated your thoughts and opened peoples eyes. You re a musical goddess and a lyrical genius. Twitter is only a small catchment your music can reach millions if not billions and bring about change
Lily is super refreshing! Great interview!!
Love you Lily❤
Lily Allen is 💗
What's did she say and mean when she mentioned Santana Dave???
12.35 "I don't spend much time in the real world". yeah no shit! we saw that when you visited Calais and apologised on behalf of the UK...
she's still young, smart and funny. I dont' know why she was in such a rush to become a parent when her career was skyrocketing but oh well, I am glad she's back.
zimzimzalabim she kinda gives reasons in her book. I wish she could be in that spotlight again, she could have RAN pop music.
7:12 "Why are you putting out an album?" "Because I'm contracted to". Great artist.
You missed the whole point of that conversation. She was saying that she would rather release multiple tracks on sound cloud than have a formal album, not that she didn’t want to create music.
BLAM!!!!!!!!!
I wonder how many people in the world know lily Allen. Any idea??
Lilly allen all best for you bravo.. Big hello from Serbia Belgrade
She has the sexiest voice ever
Any chav that smokes a few ciggies
a true artist
Good on her using her voice to speak actual truth! I like her music....hard out here was a jam!
ITSLIAMLEWIS she had other great songs too you should check em out
Lily Allen is like a character Chris Morris would create
VICE is so cutting edge these days!
Wilhelm Henderson Your wit is astonishing. I can die now, having witnessed everything.
She should let more immigrants in to her house again.
You don't get it, man. Third world immigration is a desirable policy only when I can ride my Mercedes SUV through yuppie, 99% white neighborhood and the only person who gets the short end of the stick of living next to lovely highly nationalist and violent refugee communities is some working class dumb-dumb as far away from my house as possible.
Open borders for Lily Allen!
Respect Lily very open and real has open my eyes a bit about your recent outbursts good on you girl
social media is the downfall for humanity. people are pathetic. no i do not have snapchat, fb or insta
Vice meets Lily Allen? James meets unsubscribe button.
James G don't talk about it, be about it ✌🏼
ok
We won't miss ya ✌🏼
James isn't missed, unsurprisingly.
James G 😂
damn, this vid got brigaded
Thanks to all . Cheers.
I wonder what Gavin would think?
Interviewing Nazis is all well and good but Lily Allen? Too far vice I'm unsubscribing
Lol good thing your opinion doesn't mean shit
Why is the comment section still open?
Why are you here if you don't like it? It's like stepping into a mosh pit and complaining about the rude dancing
Space Leopard she didn’t say she didn’t like it, maybe she’s just surprised that Vice isn’t censoring reality yet.
Maybe vice actually just might still believe in freedom of expression
Good point, Steelman. Though it kind of sounds like a complaint, but maybe that's just me.
snarf haha come on man. How is a comment section part of ''freedom of expression''?
Allen exudes a happy go lucky personality, is fit and has a healthy family life. No one in their right mind , who shares in these things, watches this and then scrolls through the comments compulsively “liking” everything WN 😂😂😂 could you imagine it?
And why didn't Vice ask her about topics such as grooming in Telford, Rochdale, Oxford, Rotherham, Sunderland, Bradford, etc etc etc etc etc etc?
"And when I'm a big boy I'm gunna write for Vice"
*herrr derrr* im unsub *derrrrrr*.... can you not just listen to something with an open mind without instant predisposed judgement
Are you talking to someone or just fighting demons?
I really don't understand the hatred towards her, fair enough if you don't like her political views but she's not a bad person, she's one of the only celebrities that, at least, tries to make positive changes to society
oh man people are bashing vice for an interview . In which vice covers various demo graphs and topics. So it happens to be a pop star thats sharing her opinion like everyone else.....interesting. She may be rich and seem a little clueless,but no harm sharing what you think.
If you feel strongly for something then stand for it. Then contribute to it. Effect the world for the better.
She ever get rid of the refugees she let into her home? I recall not too long ago she was trying to get them out but the cops wouldn't help her... Big heart, maybe not the brightest but actually caring about others is an admirable trait.
I just can’t forget that video of Lily Allen passing out wasted at Carnival 😭😭😭
To all the commenters commenting along the lines of SJW bollocks, please tell me what is wrong with being a warrior for social justice when it is done right? Lily Allen is talking calmly, kindly about her community. There is nothing wrong with that, she is appalled by the way media and government has treated people in the past and she has expressed that in a casual, soft manner.
If you have a genuine problem with this video 1. Unsubscribe and go somewhere else and 2. Have a real good look in the mirror and ask yourself, would you fight for others if you had the opportunity to for justice, or would you just roll over and take it because it doesn't effect you, just like the folk Lily talk about.
Honestly I am fed up of hearing the thoughtless, weak opinions of cowards. Stand up for something or get off your keyboard and let the influences make the changes that are needed in this world
Ali G bravo sir, they go about SJWs being fruits when there's something they don't like,yet these hard RWs are even worse when they don't like something.
People usually don't like the wealthy telling the working class what they should do when the wealthy get to live in high class areas with lots of security and won't be affected by the political policies they promote. The second a wealthy person gets bit in the ass by their own political policies, they'll either start bitching about the problem they caused or just move and leave the working class to pick up the pieces.
I am no sir, sounds like you are talking about someone else, shame if your experience has left with you with that impression. I feel like its a big generalisation that ALL SJWs are bad people, and I don't feel like Lily represented a bad side to it, I thought she spoke quite calmly about it
Cheers
I agree, but I am pretty sure Lily lives around the area so arguably it effects her and HER CHILDREN, and so what if she doesn't, even if she lives in Kensington I respect she is caring, getting the issue out there, and just talking about it in general. And what is the alternative? If you are wealthy you don't get to make political polices because it arguably doesn't effect you?
It really comes down to the person, their motives and what they are like as a person. There are working class who contribute nothing living on the dole and there are hard working, strong working class. Theres rich, out-of-touch, spoilt kids talking out their asses but there are also people who want to do everything in their power to help others. Lily had the fame but she has found that she loves living a normal and very special life being a mother in a family... to my knowledge.
Point is, I don't think its fair to judge anyone (and express it to others) without walking in their shoes or knowing them personally. ( Better to try to empathise and understand)
