The incident allegedly occurred backstage at LFW
We like to take any news report from The Mirror‘s 3am pages with a pinch of salt, especially when London Fashion Week, a pop princess and a grime don are involved.
We’ll let you make up your own minds. The news, as The Mirror reports it, is that Lily Allen went for Skepta backstage at LFW event after she requested to see him and he snubbed her.
They do know each other, as this tweet from 2013 shows:
Oooh yeah. Saw Lily Allen last night in London. She said she’s a big fan of my music. Don’t know if she meant it but still, I felt so sexy ☺

And she offered Skeppy’s brother JME a lift back from Bestival recently:
@JmeBBK there’s space on my bus. You’d be most welcome — lily (@lilyallen) September 12, 2015
…so there’s some sort of connection, to be fair. But why would she lose the plot so thoroughly? The Mirror seems to think it’s because she’s going through some bad times with her husband, as she was seen without her wedding ring. Maybe it just didn’t add anything to her Miu Miu outfit, you professional shit-stirrers.
In other grime-pop crossover news, the Mirror reports Allen has been enquiring into collaborating with Giggs and Stormzy. Iiinteresting.
