It is embarrassing. Sometimes I don't even know what I am saying. It is out of my control. I just explode."

TRU DAT: LILLY ALLEN THINKS SHE'S A BAD ROLE MODEL!

Lily Allen does not think she is a good role model. The 'Smile' singer - who previously revealed she tried ecstasy at the age of 14 - believes young people should look up to family members rather than celebrities they have never met. Lily said: "I think role models should be aunts and uncles, mothers and sisters and brothers. Why would you want to put someone on a pedestal that you know nothing about?"

However, the 23-year-old has also revealed she is toning down her hell-raising lifestyle and refuses to be influenced by her wild friends. She added: "My mates are in a totally different place. I've grown up so much and they are still all into going out dancing and taking drugs. "I hang out with much older people. I go for dinners at posh places and talk about art."

The 23-year-old beauty - who recently revealed she will quit her music career when she finds the right man - also says she dreams of starting a family. She said: "I don't think I want to be doing this at the same times as that. I certainly wouldn't want to mix the two. But I do enjoy it."

LILLY ALLEN'S TEARS OVER BRAND/ROSS SCANDAL!

Pop star LILY ALLEN was left in tears after hearing about the recent phone prank scandal involving British comic RUSSELL BRAND. Brand quit his job as a BBC radio last week following outrage over a stunt in which he and fellow broadcaster Jonathan Ross recorded voicemail messages for Fawlty Towers star Andrew Sachs. In the calls, the pair made lewd comments about Brand's fling with 78-year-old Sachs' granddaughter.

And the Smile hitmaker insists she was devastated by the saga that eventually cost Brand his job and saw Ross suspended for 12 weeks without pay. She tells British publication The London Paper, "I cried all yesterday. I didn't think it was too offensive. It wasn't the funniest thing in the world but it wasn't that bad." Allen also admits to having made similar prank calls herself.

She adds,

"I make these p**s-taking calls all the time. I once called up (British singer) Kate Nash's PR and said I was from a mouthwash company. I said we wanted Kate to front the brand. They told me they'd put it to Kate and get back to me."

LILY ALLEN BLASTED OVER GUN NECKLACE!

LILY ALLEN has been condemned for glamorising guns by wearing a necklace with a machine gun pendant. The Smile hitmaker - who previously met with London mayor Boris Johnson to outline proposals to reduce knife crime - was photographed wearing the gold pendant on Friday (26Sep08). But the choice of jewellery has outraged anti-violence groups, who have branded Allen "irresponsible".

Lyn Costello, from anti-violence group MAMAA, says:

"She is glamorising the use of guns. It's totally irresponsible. "She's a role model and people look up to her. The last thing we want is people looking at her and thinking guns are fashionable. "I'm really disappointed in her. She had a meeting with the Mayor saying she's worried about knife crime but is she not worried about gun crime too. "If she's really worried about violent crime then she shouldn't wear a necklace that promotes guns."

McCARTNEY PROTECTED BY ISRAELI SECRET SERVICE.

LATEST: SIR PAUL McCARTNEY will be guarded by Israeli secret service agents at his historic concert in the country this month (Sep08) to ensure his protection following death threats by Muslim extremists. The Beatles legend is due to play a show in Tel Aviv on 25 September (08) 43 years after a Fab Four concert in the country was scrapped by officials amid fears it could corrupt youngsters. Extremists have called the singer "an enemy of Muslims", insisting McCartney would be targeted by "sacrifice operatives" if he chose to go forward with the concert, meant to mark Israel’s 60th anniversary.

And now Israeli politicians have reportedly ordered officers from their secret service operation Mossad to protect the star, amid fears of an attack by suicide bombers. An Israeli official tells British newspaper The Sun: "Anyone who tries anything will be meeting Allah sooner than they thought." McCartney remains adamant his solo show will go ahead despite urges to cancel, insisting to local newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth on Friday (12Sep08), "I refused. I do what I think, and I have many friends who support Israel."

DURAN DURAN'S BANNED FROM EVERY HOTEL IN L.A!

British rockers DURAN DURAN found themselves banned from every Los Angeles hotel when they were caught putting shampoo in a fountain. Former guitarist Andy Taylor admits the band were so disruptive during their stay at the Hyatt House hotel, they found themselves in trouble with local police. He recalls, "We were being incredibly childish and it can't have been fun for anyone else.

There were lots of complaints, but we didn't really take any notice until a bunch of storm troopers from the Los Angeles Police Department showed up. "News travelled fast and we soon discovered that no other decent hotel in town would take us, so we had to stay in a grotty doss-house for the rest of our time in LA."

What a soap opera! They can stay at my place anytime!

BRIAN WILSON: 'RAP MUSIC BRINGS ME DOWN'

BEACH BOYS legend BRIAN WILSON hates listening to rap songs - because the lyrics depress him. The California Girls hitmaker has famously battled depression and mental illness throughout his life. And he insists one way he avoids falling back into the pit of despair that engulfed him for the entire 1970s is to only listen to "happy" music. Wilson says, "I don't have one (a favourite rap song). I don't need to listen to music that brings me down with negative thoughts.

I prefer to listen to music that makes me happy, like my new album That Lucky Old Sun which was inspired by Mr. Louis Armstrong." The songwriter also reveals he still suffers from stage fright - almost 50 years after he first performed in front of an audience. He adds: "I still get it, yeah. I'm nervous as hell before each show and I hate that feeling. I love performing but I don't like feeling scared. It's a crummy feeling."

This motherfocker is right! Any song calling me "ho" also brings me down too! You go white boy Wilson!
