Lily Allen Eyes Up the New MacBooks at the Apple Store

GeekSugar — Mon, 27 Oct 2008 13:22:59 -0700

Lily Allen goes from showing her appreciation of Art to showing her love for Apple by stopping by the Apple store on Regent Street in London yesterday. Thirteen days after the announcement of the new MacBooks at the Apple event, Lily is eager to get her hands on one of the new notebooks - I guess her MacBook Air just isn't cutting it.

The MacBook Air Isn't Lifting Lily's Spirit

Granted Lily Allen has been feeling a bit blue after her miscarriage and recent breakup, and we can only hope that her new online chat show with the BBC and free MacBook Air are taking her mind off all of her troubles. Gotta give a girl credit though, she was spotted on Monday clutching her Air and Nokia phone after a run-in with her ex - hey, whatever works. I'd be holding onto my Air and phone for comfort, too!

UK singer-songwriter Lily Allen has just launched an online chat show with UK's BBC 3 called Lily Allen and Friends. The show incorporates Lily's new music and brings together her MySpace and celebrity friends in an online interactive show.

Discussed on Trendhunter, once you become one of Lily's FaceBook or MySpace friends, or join her Flickr or YouTube pages, you can automatically send pictures, videos, or questions to guests on the show. You can even embed the entire show on your MySpace page. Unfortunately video clips are currently restricted to UK residents, but the site is definitely worth visiting!

Check out a clip from the show below!

New Lily Allen Video - "Smile" (Simlish Version)

GeekSugar — Thu, 22 Mar 2007 03:01:58 -0700

Well what do you know, a day after my best friend convinces me we have to go to a Lily Allen concert when she comes to San Francisco, I find out she's way geekier than I thought. Joining the ranks of Teen pop queens Aly and AJ, Allen has recorded her hit song "Smile" in Simlish.

You can record your own rendition of "Smile" by Lily Allen in Simlish - the unique language of The Sims - and enter for the chance to win prizes. Apparently, the top 3 entries will be judged by Lily Allen to determine the winners. Wondering what the heck she's saying in this video? read more

Smile

When you first left me I was wanting more, but you were beeping that girl next door, what cha do that for (what cha do that for)? When you first left me I didn't know what to say - I never been on my own that way, just sat by myself all day.

I was so lost back then, but with a little help from my friends I found a light in the tunnel at the end. Now you're calling me up on the phone so you can have a little whine and a moan and it's only because you're feeling alone.

At first when I see you cry, yeah it makes me smile, yeah it makes my smile.
At worst I feel bad for a while, but then I just smile I go ahead and smile.

Whenever you see me you say that you want me back. And I tell you it don't mean jack, no it don't mean jack. I couldn't stop laughing, no I just couldn't help myself. See you messed up my mental health I was quite unwell.

Have You Discovered Any Bands Online?

GeekSugar — Tue, 04 Mar 2008 03:33:57 -0800

The last few years in tech have ushered in music revolutions - we've seen physical media overshadowed by music downloads, the tribulations of file sharing, Radiohead's optionally-priced release of In Rainbows (and its implications), and finally, the Internet's distribution of new music. MySpace particularly gave unsigned, unknown acts the means to easily disperse their music into the ears of the young general public, and we've seen some pretty amazing overnight successes like Lily Allen and Panic At the Disco.

Facebook is now getting in on the action and adding Facebook Music for bands to post songs, sell merchandise, and sell their music through iTunes with one click.

It sounds a little more sophisticated than MySpace's current offerings, and I am a little irked at Facebook expanding more and more into the craziness that MySpace has spiraled into, but I have to applaud any Internet-grassroots opportunity for little bands to get heard. I have a few faves I first heard of on MySpace, Internet radio and Pandora - do you?
