Calm down everyone, Lily Allen has defended Cher Lloyd on Twitter

  • March 21, 2011
  • Brad O'Mance

Former Popstar Lily Allen has jumped to the defence of possible future popstar, Cher Lloyd.

Allen tweeted News of The World journ­al­ist Dan Wootton in response to a tweet in which he said the X Factor con­test­ant will be "begging to be written about in a few months".

"You're a grown man for christ's sake. she is essen­tially a child. Give the poor thing a break," Allen messaged Wootton. "I do think it quite strange, that someone your age would be so affected by a teenager. she's really not hurting anyone."

Wootton responded by saying that Lloyd wasn't a "poor thing" and that he was treating her like an adult.

This is all very well Lily, but PLEASE COME BACK TO POP. Thanks.
