Lily Allen's band trash hotel room after boozefest

Lily Allen has been raising more hell on her tour. After we revealed she wrecked her dressing room at a Canadian venue by having an ice-cream fight, now she has boasted that her backing band trashed a hotel room in Paris.

Blame free: Lily Allen was shopping while her band went wild in Paris

Lily was keen to distance herself from the boozy bedlam, which included the all- time rock'n'roll cliché of throwing a TV set out of the hotel window.

It's just a shame there wasn' t a Rolls-Royce handy to drive into the swimming pool.

The singer, 24, is currently taking a week's break from her tour with a safari trip to South Africa.

She was in Paris earlier this month, and said in a 95.8 Capital FM interview that the trashing took place during a day off.

She was keen to stress that she wasn't present at the time, saying:

"They did a pretty good job of one [ hotel room] in Paris. TVs out of the window and everything, but I wasn't there. I wasn't involved.

"I was in a different hotel. It was a day off. When I have a day off and you're in a European city the band tends to be a write off. I didn't see them for that whole day, I didn't want to.

"They sounded like they were in a state."

Luckily for Lily, who was staying at the luxury Hotel de Crillon, she spent the day shopping. Otherwise she could have been facing another bill for repairs after her little ice-cream outburst in Canada last month. She was made to hand over £1,100 after the food fight at the Phoenix Concert Theatre in Toronto.

Lil has been thrilling her followers on Twitter with updates of her safari trip in South Africa.

The star said she had bought a "f*** off camera" and has been posting images of the various animals she's coming across.

If the singing dries up, she could well have a future in photography - some of the snaps ain't half bad.

After her break she's off to Asia. She added: "I've been all over Europe and America, then I am doing the festivals over the summer - it's going to be a big summer."

She'll never be as much of a head case as her dad no matter how much she tries!

Keith Allen, he's proper!

it' s hard to believe someone didn't lock her up for having an ice cream fight! How does she get away with it. Crimes like these are committed everyday, and yet, people get away with it, while I have to walk the streets fearing that I'll get hit in the head with a pint of Ben & Jerry's.

Keith Moon did it because he was a force of nature. These guys did it because they thought it was what they were supposed to do. You're a backing band. No one cares what you do.
