Lily Allen Not Yanked from MTV Gig

Lily AllenThree-nippled Brit songstress Lily Allen probably won't be able to do the MTV Video Music awards in a few weeks, but TMZ has learned it's not because MTV pulled her from the show, as recent rumors suggest.

A source close to the show tells us that the network "wishes she could perform," but it looks like her visa issues won't be worked out before September 9th, when the show airs. Still, we're told, if she can get her immigration ducks in a row before then, Lily "has a standing invitation to attend the event" and, despite reports to the contrary, the network would "love" to see Allen on the show.

Allen was denied entry to the US last month after she'd had her visa revoked in connection with that photog tussle she got in earlier this year in London.

3. Funny....Lily Allen's visa is revoked for defending herself against a rather agressive photographer but yet we have over 20 million illegal immigrants in this country, some of which are violent criminals. 95% of the outstanding warrants in Los Angeles alone are for illegal immigrants. But yet our country revokes the visa of a WORKING performer who doesn't have a violent history. I think its just wrong.

4. If that's the case, why doesn't MTV just have her go live via satellite from MTV Europe to perform?

5. Kate, Good point!!

If she were a hate spewing, Pro War maniac the Bush administration would be fingering her all the way to the White House. This Country is in the dumps currently and is going to take a HUGE amount of work to fix (if it's not too late).

6. MTV is only watched by morons anyway. They will be too stoned and drunk to miss her. Personally, I think every celebrity should be given one free shot on the Paparazzi of their choice. Some of them are just worthless wastes of life. Smile:)

8. kate and chilly - All she has to do is go to Mexico and enter illegaly. Or go through Canada - the guards will not hold her. Her mistake was declaring she was coming here and being an ass. Please, Lily is no lily.

I hope GWB kicks your @$$ with his boots.

13. Weird posts today. Condi is secretary of state she doesn't approve individual visa. Besides, these travelers need to PAY for business visas and stop traveling on those guest passes.

What's all of this noise about Illegals? Name your source about the 95% of warrants in LA is for illegals having warrants. I love this.

14. Oh that's rich ugh...go through Canada! Do you even realize in your small brain that she will get entry via U.S. border guards. It's US guards to enter US not Canadian guards!
