Lilly Allen decides to take break from music
December 3rd, 2009 - 4:44 pm ICT by ANIWashington, December 03 (ANI): Lily Allen has decided to take time off from making music, and start a clothes rental store during the period.
The ‘Smile’ singer announced she will not tour or record for the next two years after a show with British rapper Dizzee Rascal at London’s O2 Arena next March.
“My last gig is at the moment my Dizzee Rascal concert at the O2 in March,” Contactmusic quoted her as telling the U.K.’s BBC Radio 1.
She added: “That’s the last thing I have got planned, and after that I’m planning on taking a year or two off from recording and performing music.”
Allen also plans to set up her own record label.
She said: “I’m just going to concentrate on doing more behind-the-scenes stuff. I’m setting up a record label and I am doing a shop with my sister as well…
“It’s about making fashion democratic, that’s the idea behind it - getting really, really nice clothes but letting people rent them for affordable prices so they can go out and feel like a million dollars and it won’t cost them a million dollars. That’s the idea. It’s going to be called Lucy In Disguise.” (ANI)
