Lily Allen gets kicked from awards show
Lily Allen was kicked out of GQ magazine's Men of the Year awards for annoying Madonna with her drunken antics on Tuesday night.
The 22-year-old singer was politely asked to leave the lavish ceremony at London's Royal Opera House after talking loudly throughout the pop superstar's speech before she presented the Inspiration Award to designer David Collins.
A source said, "Lily was being rude and loud, she was chatting all the way through and it was painfully obvious. At first nobody noticed but then it was evident what she was doing - even Madonna gave her a look."
Lily - who presented the Best Band prize to the Kaiser Chiefs - then embarrassed herself further by stumbling over her strapless red dress on the way to the toilet.
An insider revealed, "Lily tripped up and went flying near a table. Her PR told her they had to go and marched her out. She didn't even make it to the after-party."
But Lily wasn't willing to call it night, and decided to gatecrash the after-party for the premiere of Keira Knightley's latest film 'Atonement' at Claridge's Hotel.
Unfortunately for Lily, Madonna and her husband Guy Ritchie arrived at the hotel soon after.
A source said, "Madonna looked slightly disgusted and left shortly afterwards."
Lily's agent denied the star was ejected from the ceremony, saying the rumours were "totally untrue".
He added, "We left together in the car provided by GQ magazine."

Lily Allen fans condemn US government
Lily Allen's fans have labelled the US government "pathetic" for their decision to refuse her a US visa.
The British singer was refused a visa when she landed on in Los Angeles on Sunday.
There has been confusion about why Allen was singled out for the refusal, although there has been speculation that it relates to an incident in London in March, in which the singer kicked a photographer.
Allen was not charged for the incident by police, which has led to confusion as to why she was stopped in the US.
She wrote on her blog that she hoped US officials weren't using internet search engines to gather information used to make visa decisions.
Her fans have been quick to condemn the US government's decision.
"This visa thing is ridiculous," wrote forum user 'Sydneyyy' on Lily Allen's official website.
'Stephen', meanwhile, branded the Visa debacle "pathetic".
US fan 'Green Eyed Girl' posted a comment to Allen, saying, "That's our government for you. Sorry! I didn't vote for 'em."
