Lily Allen

Lily Allen announces her biggest ever headline tour, as her her UK theatre tour sells out in minutes

Having spent nearly two decades redefining British pop with her blend of candid storytelling and infectious, hook-filled melodies, Lily Allen is as relevant as ever.

With a fiercely loyal fanbase that spans those who grew up on her sharp one-liners and a younger generation of listeners now tracing her influence, Lily Allen ushers in a new chapter with West End Girl, her first album in seven years and easily one of 2025’s most acclaimed records. Critically hailed and commercially revitalising, it extends a remarkable, era-defining career built on genre-shifting pop and emotionally frank lyrics that are relatable without ever veering into self-pitying. Since her debut commercial single ‘Smile’ topped the UK charts in 2006 and made her a household name, Allen has forged a multi-faceted reputation that cuts across music, theatre and a growing slate of entrepreneurial projects.

Beginning with homemade demos on Myspace, Allen broke through in 2006 with Alright, Still, the album which delivered the double-Platinum No. 1 ‘Smile’ and ‘LDN', a bright, ska-flecked anthem whose breezy chorus belies its sharp, satirical look at city life. It’s Not Me, It’s You followed in 2008 with ‘The Fear’ and ‘Not Fair’, and saw her pivot to sleek, pop-electronica whilst continuing to document her relationships and subsequent missteps with disarming honesty. Even as she navigated industry pressures and public scrutiny, Lily Allen pushed forward with Sheezus (2014) and the Mercury-nominated No Shame (2018), records now widely credited with shaping the wave of confessional pop that dominates today’s airwaves.

Live, Allen has long been a festival mainstay, from Glastonbury to Coachella, pairing her Cockney-leaning vocals with a charming, conversational stage presence. Earlier this year, she made a surprise appearance with Olivia Rodrigo at Glastonbury, underscoring her influence on a new generation of ‘break-up anthem’ artists and signalling the end of her hiatus. Offstage, she has carved out a varied career across television, film, writing and theatre. Her West End debut in 2:22 A Ghost Story earned an Olivier nomination, while she has also fronted a podcast, published her memoir My Thoughts Exactly, and pursued entrepreneurial ventures (from launching her own sex toy to monetising foot photos on OnlyFans) with characteristic candour and humour.

That momentum powers West End Girl, a bold, narratively rich album unpacking the fallout of her second marriage with forensic detail. Tracks like ‘Pussy Palace’ and ‘Madeline’ showcase Allen at her most melodic and unfiltered, with The Guardian calling the record “a gobsmacking autopsy of marital betrayal.” Following an instantly sold-out theatre run, fitting for the album’s title and salacious subject matter, Allen now scales up to her biggest tour yet, performing West End Girl in full across UK arenas.
