t was never her music we hated, it was her words and actions! And we’re gonna get A LOT more of that now that Lily Allen is taking time off from music – indefinitely.

The singer has confirmed that she has no plans to tour anymore or record a follow-up to her latest album, It’s Not Me, It’s You.

“I do however remain a fan of new music, so this is not some selfish crusade,” says the retired singer on her new anti-piracy blog. “The days of me making money from recording music has been and gone as far as I’m concerned, so I don’t (at this point) stand to profit from legislation.”

Illy is taking time off to star in the West End production of Neil Labute‘s Reasons To Be Pretty!

As terrible the notion that someone put her in a play, it may be a great casting decision. The lead female role in the show is Steph, a girl who is bat-shiz crazy!

But, she’ll probably pull a Pivert!

You can’t pAArty like that and do 8 shows a week!!
