Lilly Allen speaks out about drugs!

Lily Allen has never been one to think before she speaks and this time its on the topic of drugs.

Lily has been in and out of the news regarding drugs in the past and has said that she thinks the risks of Cocaine have been completely blown out of proportion.

In a recent interview with The Word Magazine, Lily has said:

“The only story is that drugs are bad and they will kill you – you will become a prostitute, a rapist or a dealer; but that’s not true. I know lots of people that take cocaine three nights a week and get up and go to work everyday, no problem at all. But we never hear that side of the story. I have no statement to make, I just wish people wouldn’t sensationalise this thing that just exists”.

Eek! Lily has certainly been brave in voicing her opinion and must have known that it would cause a fuss.

Dominic Grieve, the Shadow Home Secretary has spoken back about Lily’s comment..

“There is no doubt that drugs fuel crime and wreck lives. It’s naive to assume there isn’t human misery and suffering associated with every drug transaction somewhere along the line.”

Do you agree with Lily’s comment or do you think she should have kept her mouth shut? Let me know!
