Lily Allen announces she will not release a new album

Lily Allen, who has used her blog to try and gain support against music piracy in recent weeks, has now announced that she will not renew her contract with record label EMI and that consequently means she does not plan to record a new album.


Lily Allen claims that she remains an avid music fan but with reference to the illegal file sharing issue, she describes her days of making money from recording music are well and truly over.


Lily Allen set up the blog in the hope that people would post messages of support against music piracy and claims for the government to do more to tackle the issue by enforcing harsher punishments.


However, Lily Allen has also written on her blog recently about her thoughts on pursuing a career in acting, but this post had now been deleted. This possible next career move for Lily Allen would be following in her fathers footsteps as the daughter of Keith Allen, the comedian and actor.


A spokesman for Lily Allen has tried to downplay her decision to quit music and claims that she is not thinking about her next album right now because she is still promoting her current album Its Not Me Its You.


It seems the upcoming Lily Allen tour could be the last time fans can see her perform live if she does quit music for good.


The Lily Allen tour kicks off at the Sheffield O2 Academy on November 16 and will also stop off at the Birmingham National Indoor Arena (November 24), Liverpool Echo Arena (December 9) as well as two nights at the Manchester Apollo (November 17 & 18) and four nights at the London Brixton O2 Academy (November 27 & 28, December 15 & 17).
