More pictures of Lily after the intermission…

Lily might be very good in theater since she is a bit of the drama queen! From the Guardian:

 singer Lily Allen is in talks about making her stage debut in the West End run of Neil LaBute’s Reasons to Be Pretty;

She might be facing an uphill battle with the critics, however:

In what other profession could you charge people top dollar, having had no training, no qualifications and no experience? Imagine if wannabe airline pilots were allowed to climb into the cockpit of a fully laden jumbo jet. So why put an untrained celeb at the helm of a professional theatre production?

Ouch. But they do have a point. Lily doesn’t have training, but her big name will be a draw because producers think it will automatially mean ticket sales. Would you go and see Lily?
