Lily Allen still has U.S. visa, tour as scheduled

Reports about the Brit singer Lily Allen losing her U.S. visa are not true according to manager.

Lily Allen still has U.S. visa, tour as scheduled Frantic fans of the British singer Lily Allen had a long day on Tuesday after wrong reports were published on the Internet. It was initially reported that U.S. Customs have revoked her visa and she will not be allowed in the country. The publications claimed that Allen, 22, was detained at Los Angeles airport flying from Australia and her visa was revoked due to the singer's clash with reporters in London earlier this year.

Allen's manager Neale Easterby responded to the reports by calling them "rubbish". "She's in Las Vegas right now. She will be there until Thursday shooting a video with Common and Kanye West for Common's track 'Drivin' Me Wild'," the manager said. He also confirmed that Lily Allen's tour will go as scheduled.

Lily Allen is the model Internet success. She became popular after creating a MySpace account and posting her demo songs on it. Thousands of visitors listened the demos and producers Greg Kurstin and Mark Ronson helped Lily with her debut album " Alright, Still".

The online betting website Bodog Sports (new window) made Lily Allen favorite to be arrested for DUI with odds 4/1 in the beginning of June in their celebrity betting odds section. With such odds she blew away candidates such as Paris Hilton (12/1), Lindsay Lohan (11/2) and Amy Winehouse (6/1).
