Lily Allen has claimed she was sexually harassed, revealing she is taking legal action.Speaking on James O'Brien's Unfiltered podcast on the topic of the Harvey Weinstein scandal and sexual misconduct allegations, she discussed her personal experience.

"I’ve been harassed, " she said.

"I can’t talk too much for legal reasons but I’m in the process of dealing with something."

She added: "What I’ve found quite interesting is people suggesting that there’s something to be gained from wanting to talk about these things.

"Suddenly, finally, I feel like I can get this [person's] name out of my mouth and out of my head.

"I don’t want money. If it was about that then I would sue in the civil courts and would attach a non-disclosure agreement to it.

"That’s not what I want."

Disco-dancers get ready to throw some shapes.

The Despacio team have announced details of a three-day residency at London's All Points East Festival in Victoria Park, East London this summer.

LCD Soundsystem's James Murphy and Soulwax's David and Stephen Dewaele have teamed up to create the immersive disco project, a custom built sound system to play vinyl only, 50,000 watts of sound distributed between eight 11-foot-tall speaker stacks.

It was first unveiled as part of the Manchester International Festival in 2013 and has since appeared sporadically at events, venues and festivals all over the world.

James Murphy and the Dewaele brothers will be behind the decks for all three days of the festival from 25-27 May.

Murphy's band LCD Soundsystem headline the first night of the festival, joined by Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Phoenix, Glass Animals and Young Fathers. The xx and Björk headline the following nights.

In between Soulwax shows in the US David and Stephen Dewaele from Soulwax told BBC 6 Music why Despacio is such a unique experience.

Or even if it does - but you have been warned.

You Gov, external polls are often helpful in gauging public opinion on some of the hottest topics of the day, like war, politics, education and who's the best character from Friends.

This latest poll is no exception.

With the Spice Girls set to return as animated superheroes in a new movie, You Gov has asked more than 31,000 Brits who their favourite member of the band is.

We all have our own personal favourites but turns out Baby Spice (above) is the most popular across the country, with a whopping 37% of the vote.

Sporty came in second on 23%, with Scary (look away now Mel B) proving to be the least popular.

However, better news for the Yorkshire lass is that 'girl power' is apparently strongest among those who say she's their favourite. Those who favoured Scary were most happy to describe themselves as "feminists". Make that 31% in fact.

While 83-90% of those with a favourite Spice Girl believe in gender equality, only a minority on the whole would describe themselves as a “feminist”.

Friendship, it seems, is most important to those who prefer Posh. So if you wanna get with Victoria you've got to get with her friends basically, as hubby David will no doubt testify.

Read the full findings of this most vital report - including how most blokes prefer Geri - on the You Gov website, external, then go and have a good think about who’s your favourite and what that might say about you .

A communal singalong and a projection of song lyrics are among the events that will mark the first anniversary of the Manchester Arena attack.

Twenty-two people were killed and hundreds injured after a bomb attack following an Ariana Grande gig on 22 May last year.

Manchester City Council leader Sir Richard Leese said it was "only fitting" for music to mark the date.

Crowds burst into an impromptu rendition of the Oasis hit Don't Look Back In Anger (above) during a vigil shortly after the tragedy and then Ariana Grande and stars like Miley Cyrus, Coldplay and Liam Gallagher all turned out for an evening of musical remembrance at the One Love Manchester event.

A civic memorial service had previously been announced.

The Manchester Together - With One Voice event will take place on Tuesday 22 May and will bring together choirs from the city and beyond.

The final half hour will be a communal singalong, which will be broadcast live on BBC Radio Manchester.

A second event named There Is A Light will take place 22-26 May. Song lyrics will be projected on St Ann's Church and other parts of St Ann's Square.

Families of the 22 victims have been invited to select lyrics and members of the public can also make suggestions online, external.

"Every gig I ever play, I promise myself I'm going to be the cool pop star," says George Ezra.

"But I'm just not that person. After two songs, I'm grinning from ear to ear."

That grin is infectious. When Ezra played in London earlier this week, the whole room lit up with smiles as the audience gleefully sang back every word of his bouncy, ebullient pop songs.

But the 24-year-old's easygoing style doesn't win him any favours with critics.

The Guardian dismissed his new album, external, Staying At Tamara's, as "unchallenging" and "unflinchingly polite" - an assessment built on the myth that music's only worthwhile if it's edgy or miserable.

"It's very easy to get big ideas about, 'I'm going to have this haircut, I'm going to start doing this and that,'" agrees Ezra. "But unless you look comfortable and natural, none of it will make sense.

"So instead of trying to appeal to a group of people that aren't interested anyway, why not just do what you do well and be comfortable with it?"

That approach has worked in his favour. Staying At Tamara's is the fastest-selling album so far this year, swooping into the number one slot last weekend, just as Ezra set off on tour.

The 33-year-old Essex singer came in for some ribbing online (and at the hands of Brits host Jack Whitehall) last year after he tweeted live updates of an apparent terror attack that didn't actually happen.

Reports of gun shots caused chaos around Oxford Circus tube station in London on the 24 November, with the former X Factor winner posting panicked updates from inside Selfridges.

“Everyone get out of Selfridges now, gun shots! I’m inside”, he tweeted at the time to his 8.5 million followers.

Police however, found no casualties or evidence of any shots having been fired but Olly is sticking to his guns.

He told the Sun, external: “Whether they were shooting into the air, or whatever, something happened that day - whether it was covered up, I don’t know.

“It’s all a bit murky.”

Olly, who was shopping for a massage chair for his aunt at the time, added: “One minute I’m sitting there and this guy’s saying, ‘If you press this button you get a massage’ - the next I’m getting thrown against a wall.

“I ran for my life thinking ‘Someone’s upstairs shooting.’ The noise of people screaming, it was terrifying.”

From rap babies to rap awards now as hip hop musical Hamilton swept the board at last night's Olivier Awards, picking up seven gongs from its 13 nominations.
