When we saw that Lily Allen – happily married to Sam Cooper with two kids – had joined Tinder, we thought for a moment that something awful was going on. But actually, thankfully, the singer is incredibly straightforward about the whole thing and proves that Tinder isn’t just for hook-ups. It can be used in other ways, too (although, to be fair, this is the first time we’ve heard someone using it for another reason...).
Her profile explains: ‘I’m a touring artist wanting to meet people abroad who don’t want to talk about the industry formally known as entertainment,’ before admitting, she is ‘married, [has] two beautiful girls, a massive mortgage and ridiculous schedule.’
Aww, so does Lily just want some friends while she travels around?! Adorable. We also love the fact that Lily writes how she loves ‘margheritas, the odd cigarette and Jordans’ and features photos from when she was ‘younger and hotter’. Well, we happen to think she’s pretty much at her hottest right now – but have to admire the woman’s ability to laugh at herself. If only everyone else was this honest on Tinder, we would have gone on way fewer dodgy dates.
On the subject of weirdos on Tinder, perhaps someone should get in touch and point her in the direction of Friends Reunited? We just worry that she’ll try and make pals, only to get sent 40 dick pics and loads of weird messages asking if she ‘wants 2 huk up’. Just looking out for you, Lily.
