Blog Post 3: Lily Allen


So, not a super strong image but the context in which it is in is very impressive. According to many British women, Victoria Beckham is their role model. Ridiculous, huh? Well, Lilly Allen is brave enough to take on one of the biggest superstars [wives] in the world. She is also using her fame to be an activist against teenage pregnancy - she is pregnant - not a teenager - and refuses to design a maternity line because she feels that her demographic is young girls and teenagers and this is simply not suitable for them.
Allen is also an avid bike rider, and of a healthy weight. There has been much talk about her more curvy figure, and she blasts rumors that she is insecure about it.
Also, have you guys listened to her lyrics? Very powerful. She's a strong woman.
