Lily Allen says 'record label failed to act on assault'

Lily Allen says her record label has not taken any action after she told them she was sexually assaulted by an industry figure.she spoke to a Warner Music boss last year about the alleged attack in 2016.

"We got to my hotel. I couldn't find my room keys. So he was like, 'Well, why don't you sleep in my bed while I go and get the keys or whatever.' So I passed out in his bed.She said she could feel him trying to have sex with her. Allen then said it was not until women started coming forward with allegations of sexual abuse within the film industry, that she decided to share her experience. She first wrote about it in her book My Thoughts Exactly, which was published in September 2018.

Comments like this are probably the reason women don’t come forward at the time ffs listen to her

Attention seeking narcissism

Bit daft that without going to the police what could the company do On her words alone Sack him without anything other than her say so

Think this is a power thing. Warner vs LA, no contest, good on LA for at leat highlighting business ineptitude in dealing with v difficult issues.

Book not selling enough so plug it.

These comments 🤦‍♂️

I think calling the police when it happened would of been a good idea, if only to save other women in the same position, not wanting to make a fuss is ridiculous.

Got a book to sell?!

Well should’ve reported it to the police instead of thinking his mum would be disappointed in him

🤔

Police Ms Allen or your lawyer....

Perhaps he had listened to the lyrics of her songs and thought she might like some new material?

New single out? Another failed album? Taken your refugee in yet?

What can l do for publicity next now I've tried everything else?

'I woke up and he was in my bed naked slapping my bum.' She said she could feel him trying to have sex with her. 'I made a decision, I didn't want to go to the police. I didn't want to make a fuss and I wanted to keep it quiet.

Short on exposure?

why not follow the law, and just report it to the police, if it actually happened

Must have a new album or book coming out

thatwentwellthen BBC still got a crew embedded with her?

I feel this isn't genuine at all

How can anyone take this seriously

Headline: celebrity douche doesn’t understand who the police are

I would like to apologise to Lily, on behalf of the nation, for not buying her tacky book.

Would that be the assault on our ears?

Attacked in 2016, didn't report it to the police, or to the labels hierarchy, no leave it until last year when there's absolutely no evidence remaining and it's he said she said, knowing full well that the dickheads at the BBC will write him up as guilty on her word. Stitchup

Boring She does like attention first the immigrants. Now the sex card 💤💤💤

Yawn bored now

Always victim. Never content. Never happy....

Sleep in his bed till he went for keys? Where was reception? Another town

Embarrassed for the commenters here. webelieveyou

Comps face

Roughly translated as: My career has dissapeared so the only thing I can do to stay relevant is jump on the metoo bandwagon. Pathetic

Nah....just can't believe her.

So name him, or is this for publicity because your record label dumped you?

Police should have been the first port of call really.

Yeah I'm not sure why they would be reluctant to believe your MeToo allegations

Good on her for speaking out, no matter of timescale...keep speaking out and let our daughters and sons know that it is wrong to be treated like this. Times were so different then and before then was so much worse.

Cry me a river ya tramp! Why speak about it now and not then? Very odd?

Yet didnt report to the police. Instead wrote a book about it is an opportunity to make money. One feels this is not genuine and is just using the current climate to take advantage.

She not working in a sandwich shop or summert now? Irrelevant noise

“I’m not going to report to the police in 2016 but I will tell the BBC in 2019”. 👌

I usually find going to the Police often proves more useful. I guess Lily is smarting given her latest flop album has resulted in her being dropped by her label and now she’s attempting to become the next Kerry Katona.
