Lily Allen has an extra reason to smile today, as she has landed her own entertainment show on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Three.
Μύ
Lily Allen And Friends (working title) will be based on the social networking phenomenon that helped to launch her career.
Μύ
Viewers will be invited to become Lily's virtual friends and shape the show by contributing to topical discussions, putting questions to guests and even presenting parts of the show.
Μύ
The audience will consist entirely of Lily's online friends, who will also have exclusive access to behind-the-scenes footage and can sign up to have highlights sent directly to their phones.
Μύ
Guests will include the hottest celebrities, topical guests from the online world, chart-topping bands and unsigned acts chosen by members of the network. They will all have a profile within the network that the group can access and comment on in the run-up to the show.
Μύ
Lily Allen And Friends will also follow the progress of the breaking new music acts showcased on the programme via the network.
