Fans walk out of Lily Allen's TV show set in boredom
Claims of a stuttering start for the singer's small screen career
Lily Allen's new TV show 'Lily Allen And Friends' began with a stuttering start, with audience members walking out due to boredom and Allen struggling to read her cue cards.
According to Showbizspy.com, over 50 of the 150 invited guests, selected from Allen's MySpace friends list, walked off the set in Pinewood Studios, Buckinghamshire, complaining of boredom.
Some fans reported that Allen's jokes fell flat and she seemed nervous. According to one fan, Allen had trouble reading her cue cards during an interview with comedian David Mitchell.
Allen introduced a video of animals having sex, after which actor Cuba Gooding Junior, a guest on the show, is reported to have said, "I don’t know what’s sicker, animals having sex or you clapping."
'Lily Allen And Friends' debuts tonight on BBC3 at 10:30pm (GMT).
