Lily Allen Slams News Reports, Says 'I Preferred Real Records and Newspapers'

Singer Lily Allen recently took to Twitter and proclaimed that she's fed up with the way social media is reporting the latest about her life. Apparently, Allen did not take a liking to Daily Mail Online, and their report about her attitude towards drinking alcohol.

After ranting about the whole thing for a few post, it seems as though the singer is ready to drop social media for good.

Stepping back, in an interview with Grazia, Allen, the 29-year-old mother of two, was quoted saying "It's been hard not drinking, but I'm trying to grow up. Finally." Afterwards, the aforementioned news website, Daily Mail Online, published a story in which read "she still has a long way to go in the bid to become more responsible, Allen has gone teetotal."

Then on December 9, Allen ranted to her Twitter account saying she wanted to give up social media because of the harsh words she had been receiving. "Let's give up social media and the Mail Online. It's killing me. That is all," she wrote on Twitter.

"I feel like we're not evolved enough to handle the Internet, psychologically. I preferred real records and newspapers with news in them...And everything was just better and nicer. We were nicer. And I wouldn't be here," she added.

Then Allen concluded her rant on Twitter by saying "Might sell my twitter now." The singer had always been in the center of talks when it comes to sobriety. It has been reported that Allen allegedly had a problem with taking illegal drugs and drinking alcohol.

But apparently what got her angry is that she is now being attacked again while she is not under the influence of substances, and is in fact living a good life.

In 2006, Allen opened up at the U.K.'s Observer Music Monthly, "I've become a character in a comic...and that character is always drunk! I wish my comic character wasn't that," she shared.

"I have no intention of taking drugs again at the moment. But I can't say, 'Never again,' because I don't know where I'll be in 10 years' time. And I will definitely drink in the future, just not for a while," she added.
