BRIT AWARDS - LILY ALLEN LISTENS TO DAD AND GOES TO THE BRITS

Lily Allen says she will now be going to the Brit Awards after initially suggesting she might not bother.

The precocious star, who has been nominated for four awards, said a chat with her dad, comedian Keith Allen, convinced her not to snub the show.

Speaking to the Sun, Lily revealed Keith had warned her she would regret the decision if she didn't turn up.

"I really was going to stay away from the Brits because as soon as the nominations came out, I was convinced I wouldn't win anything," she said.

"It's not like the end of the world if I don't win something. But when my dad found out I wasn't going, he went mad. He said it would be bad form."

The 21-year-old believes she will miss out on Best Female, Best Album, Best Single and Best Breakthrough because of her multiple nominations.

Meanwhile, the feisty singer has also revealed how she wiles way the hours when on tour in foreign countries.

"When I travel around the world there often isn't anything to watch on TV, especially when they don't speak English," she said.

"But watching porn is fine as it doesn't need words. It's sort of universal."
