Lily Allen plays a cupid in a new promotional film for ice cream.

Lily Allen recently said that Kanye West is amused by the fact she named her new album 'Sheezus'. Allen marked her return to the pop music world with the release of the album earlier this month. The album features the singles 'Hard Out Here', 'Air Balloon' and 'Our Time' and its name is a play on the title of Kanye West's 2013 album, 'Yeezus'.

Earlier this year Allen expressed worry that Kanye West might react negatively to her referencing his work. However, Allen recently met with the rapper and his fiancée, Kim Kardashian at the Met Gala in New York and was relieved to discover that he was happy with the name. "I'm a really big fan of Kanye's so it was a little nod to him," she said during an appearance on The Today Show. "He hadn't heard it, it came out the day after, but he thought it was funny. And Kim said, 'I'm the real Sheezus.'"

Meanwhile, Allen also revealed recently that she turned down a cameo appearance in popular fantasy show, Game Of Thrones when she was asked to play the sister of Theon, who is played by her real life brother, Alfie Allen. She backed out when she realised that the storyline involved incest and would involve her filming sex scenes with her sibling.

Lily Allen concerned Kanye West will call her out over 'Sheezus'

March 1, 2014 15:01

Singer named album as an homage to rapper but is now worried he'll see it as a diss

Lily Allen is worried Kanye West will call her out on the title of her forthcoming album 'Sheezus'.

The singer, who won Best Solo Artist at last week's NME Awards With Austin, Texas, named her third album as an homage to the rapper, who released his album 'Yeezus' last year.

However, in an interview with Australian radio station Nova, she admitted she's now "terrified" he'll think it's a diss rather than a tribute. "It's totally not a diss," she said. "I love Kanye, I think he's brilliant." She also praised him for speaking his mind all the time, "whether what he's saying is ridiculous or not".

When collecting her award for Best Solo Artist last week, Allen said: "This is kind of dumb because David Bowie is in the same category and Jake Bugg so this goes to you guys, not me." She was later seen leaving the awards' aftershow party at London club Sketch having broken the middle finger off her award.

Allen released two singles last year, a cover of Keane's 'Somewhere Only We Know', which featured on a TV advert, and 'Hard Out Here'. She recently followed it up with 'Air Balloon' but still hasn't announced when her third album, her first since 2009's 'It's Not Me, It's You'.
