Elton John and Lily Allen Square Off Onstage

September 3rd, 2008

The Annual ‘GQ Men of the Year Awards’ ceremony held in London was marred by some very unclassy behavior by the two presenters, British pop singer Lily Allen and Sir Elton John.  Miss Allen was enjoying her champagne , both onstage and off, as the pair handed out awards, until she started to slur her words, ad-lib, and swear. The war of words went like this:

It was Ms. Allen’s turn to announce, “And now, the most important part of the night…”, when Elton piped in with,

“What, are you going to have another drink?”

Ms. Allen, not missing a beat, came back with,

” F*** off, Elton, I’m 40 years younger than you and I have my whole life ahead of me”.

A ticked-off Elton replied,

” I could still snort you under the table.”

Ms. Allen:

“F*** off, I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Ms. Allen was reportedly pouring herself champagne from a bottle she had hidden behind the stage set, swigging it down between awards.
