In her 2018 memoir My Thoughts Exactly, Lily Allen bravely shared about her past experiences with a sex worker. The 39-year-old singer revealed that while on tour in 2014, she had hired female escorts due to feeling lonely and disconnected from her then-husband Sam Cooper.
Now, happily married to Stranger Things star David Harbour, Lily has opened up about why she decided to share such intimate details. In a recent episode of her Miss Me? podcast with co-host Miquita Oliver, Lily explained that she was constantly living in fear of the media uncovering her secret.
During the breakdown of her marriage, Lily found herself being promiscuous and exploring her sexuality, which included hiring sex workers. She wanted to take back control and share her story on her own terms, which she did in her memoir.
The singer also hopes that by normalizing sex work and talking openly about it, she can help others who may have similar experiences feel less alone. Lily believes that art should help people come to terms with their own behavior, even if it goes against societal norms.
In a lighthearted moment, Lily joked that she hopes her husband David isn't listening, as she considers herself to be more "vanilla" now. She also shared a heartfelt moment on the podcast, where she was moved to tears by Billie Eilish's rider requests, as it reminded her of her own time as a popstar on a grueling promo schedule.
Lily also admitted to sleeping with Miquita's celebrity crush on purpose, and even called her friend the next day to confess. But overall, she hopes that her podcast can be a platform for open and honest conversations, and she encourages anyone with a celebrity story to reach out and share it.
If you have a celebrity story, video, or pictures, you can contact the entertainment team at The Agency by email, phone, or by visiting their Submit Stuff page. Lily and the team would love to hear from you.
