Lily Allen has supposedly gone on a seething rant on English footballers’ wives. The Sun is running this story without sourcing Allen’s outrageous quotes, but Metro.co.uk lets us know that Allen supposedly said these things to “obscure French football magazine SoFoot.” Allen is quoted as calling Victoria Beckham a “monster” and Cheryl Cole a “bitch.” These quotes are so out there I want to give Allen the benefit of the doubt and assume that they’re either made up or that there was some scenario in which she didn’t know she was being quoted. It’s possible that she got wasted at an event and didn’t realize she was talking to a journalist or that something was lost in translation. Allen has talked a lot of smack in the past, but these quotes are filled with such vitriol that it’s hard to believe she said this. (Here’s a link to SoFoot’s website if one of our French-speaking readers can check it out. It doesn’t look like the article is available online, and they just mention that they have an interview with Allen in the latest issue.)
It looks like motormouth Lily Allen just can’t keep her trap shut after unleashing a hate-fuelled rant calling Posh a “monster” and Cheryl Cole a “b****”.
The Smile singer opened up to obscure French football magazine SoFoot and made sure she gave the Beckhams a proper tongue-lashing.
“The Beckham are sickening. Everyone knows Victoria is a monster. I’d rather shoot myself between the eyes than be a WAG.”
She then turned her attentions to Girls Aloud singer Cheryl Cole and her footballer hubby Ashley.
“She is just a b****. She represents everything I hate. She is stupid, superficial and as ugly outside as inside.”

Her remarks are sure to reignite an old feud between the two snipping pop divas – Cheryl first got Lily’s goat after she compared her to “a chick with a dick”.
Lily also saves some venom for Cheryl’s husband Ashley, who she brands “revolting”.
“He is the worst, he disgusts me. He jumps on everything that moves.”
“I am not criticising just to criticise, but I have met him several times. He is revolting.”
And the singer blasts the footballing world in general saying: “It’s ridiculous, I hate it. Footballers aren’t there to show off in London, but to play football.
“Mind you, they are probably too stupid to understand that. Especially the English ones.”
Footballers, she adds, “go out everywhere they can find alcohol for too much money and sex for nothing.”

Allen has responded to controversies over her past bad behavior by saying she’s entitled to blow off steam and blaming other people for paying attention to her drunken antics. So far she hasn’t addressed this interview on her MySpace or Twitter, although her explanation will probably involve deflecting responsibility. I’d like to think she didn’t really say this, though. It’s just too obnoxious, even for Lily. The girl was just named the face of Chanel handbags, and she can’t afford to jeopardize her endorsement deals by running her mouth like this. Only two months ago Allen admitted that she was completely broke and had to sell her BMW for cash.
