Lily Allen - Allen Hurts Foot In Fall

LILY ALLEN narrowly missed performing at a fundraising concert on Thursday (13Nov09) after falling down a flight of stairs and hurting her ankle just before the show.

The Smile hitmaker took to the stage for a rousing rendition of The Beatles' classic Hey Jude, alongside Sir Paul MCCartney, Take That, and Robbie Williams.

But the limping star had to struggle through the show - in aid of Children In Need - after injuring her leg while carrying her suitcase down a flight of stairs.

It's not the first time Allen has fallen and hurt herself - earlier this year (09) she was left in agony during a concert in Finland after taking a tumble and hurting her back.
