Lily Allen's music is having a 'resurgence' online
Lily Allen's music is "having an actual resurgence" online among "young kids".
The pop star released four albums between 2006 and 2018 and had huge hits with tracks including Smile, The Fear and Not Fair, and Lily is now convinced the songs are finding a new audience on the internet even though she "finds it hard" listening to them herself.
During an appearance on her Miss Me? podcast, Lily explained: "I do find it hard listening to that music. I'm not ashamed of it because I think it was good for what it was at the time. And actually I think it does still stand up ...
"It's having an actual resurgence on the internet. I know because my royalty payments are going up. There are young kids that are into my music now."
She added she has been "been tracking the new wave of interest through streaming data".
Lily has been back in the studio working on new material and she recently admitted she's been using music like "therapy" after a tough year in which she split from her actor husband David Harbour.
On the podcast, she said: "Music is the one place where I can let it all go. It's almost like therapy. I like to write and record at the same time with somebody else in the room - there's something therapeutic about it.
"My producer or my co-writers become almost like therapists because I'm processing the things that I'm going through in real time ...
"I can do that in music, but I can't really do it when I'm talking to friends or my parents. It doesn't mean I'm being inauthentic ... I just don't feel like I can sum things up properly. But I can do it in a three-and-a-half minute pop song."
Lily previously admitted she hopes to release a new album by the end of 2025 after she finishes her stint in Henrik Ibsen's classic play 'Hedda Gabler' which runs at the Theatre Royal Bath's Ustinov Studio in Bath, England this summer.
During an appearance on 'Miss Me?', Lily explained: "Firstly, I'm going to go and get my head straight for a bit. "I'm doing a little bit of work on myself in this beginning period of the year, then I'm going to do some more writing, then I'm going to do my play, hopefully, maybe get an album out by the end of the year. That would be nice, wouldn't it?"
She added: "It's [the album is] not real, I'm just trying to manifest it now. Listen, I've got this. We're bringing Lily Allen back in 2025."

Delivery Driver Spots Cat—Doorbell Cam Captures 'Emotional Damage'
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The internet is in stitches after a delivery driver asked a pet parent a certain question about her cat. Michaela Roxy Davies, known on TikTok as @michaeladavies12, came to the front door when she noticed a delivery driver dropping off a package. Along with Davies came her cat Lily, who is also referred to as Fat Lily, which led the delivery driver to ask: "Is she pregnant?" This question didn't come as a surprise, Davies told Newsweek via TikTok, "She's a big gal and always has been!" Davies responded to the driver that Lily isn't pregnant and instead she's "just really fat." The two of them started laughing, which was captured on her Ring camera and posted to TikTok last week, bringing in over 156,500 views and 29,900 likes. "He didn't say anything else about Fat Lily afterwards, was just taking a picture of my parcel," Davies said. "He was a lovely guy and found it funny." The end of the video included a close-up picture of Fat Lily. She looked completely unamused by the question, causing her "emotional damage." Screenshot from Ring camera capturing the moment a delivery driver asked the owner if her cat was pregnant.

"Not the delivery man fat-shaming your cat," wrote one user. Another commented on the picture of Lily: "The pain in her eyes!!! Don't worry girl, we've all been there." A third user added: "You leave her alone!" Cats' Weight While the delivery driver's comment might've hurt Lily's feelings, the truth is that she is not the only cat weighing in on the heavier side. A PetMD article from last year reported that about 61 percent of cats are overweight. It's almost impossible to say "no" to those begging eyes for another treat or helping of food, but obesity in cats can lead to health issues, including diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, cancers and a weakened immune system. It can also shorten a cat's lifespan. Every cat is at risk of becoming overweight, but the article shared that several cat breeds are more susceptible to weight gain. Those breeds include Persian, Manx, British and American shorthaired, exotic shorthaired, Ragamuffin, Birman, Sphynx, Maine Coons and Norweigan Forest cats. These cats often prefer napping the day away instead of playing. Plus, they can never turn down food. Do you have funny and adorable videos or pictures of your pet you want to share? Send them to life@ with some details about your best friend, and they could appear in our Pet of the Week lineup.
