English Grammy-nominated singer, songwriter, and actress Lily Allen has managed to shock even the pro-abortion press by noting, on a recent podcast, that she cannot remember how many abortions she has had.
On a July 1 episode of the Miss Me? podcast, Allen got detailed about her personal life. “I have an IUD [intrauterine contraceptive device] now,” she told co-host Miquita Oliver. “I think I’m on my third or fourth and I just remember before that it was a disaster area. I would get pregnant all the time.”
Allen, who has a 13-year-old and an 11-year-old daughter with her ex-husband, then discussed the babies she had aborted. “Abortions, I’ve had a few but then again,” she sang laughingly to the tune of Frank Sinatra’s My Way. “I can’t remember exactly how many. I can’t remember, yeah. I think maybe like five – four or five.”
“I remember once getting pregnant and the man paying for my abortion and me thinking it was so romantic,” the singer said. She has since changed her mind about that particular instance. “Tell you how romantic it was – I don’t think he texted me after. Fair, tbh. I was a crazy b**ch. Still am.”
Far from being shocked, interviewer Miquita Oliver responded by noting that she, too, has had “about five” abortions, and that getting the contraceptive IUD coil ensured that she “stopped getting abortions,” which had become routine. “The pattern would be: Unfortunately, get pregnant, like, not want to be, have an abortion, then while I was sedated in said abortion, they’d give me a coil,” she said. “I felt really embarrassed to even say that I had more than one abortion, why the f**k should I be ashamed? I have had a few.”
“It actually irritates me, and I’ve said it before on the record. I’ve seen memes going around sometimes, on Instagram from pro-abortion accounts or whatever, whenever this conversation comes up, and suddenly you start seeing people posting things about extraordinary reasons for having an abortion,” Allen agreed.
“Like: ‘My aunt had a kid that had this disability,’ or whatever, ‘If she went full term it was going to kill her, so we have to,’” she continued. “It’s like, shut up! Just: ‘I don’t want a f*****g baby right now.’ Literally: ‘Don’t want a baby’ is enough reason.”
“One of the abortions I had, I hated the guy and had absolutely no interest in having his f*****g child,” Oliver added. “I was like: ‘Absolutely not,’ and as you know, throughout my 20s and 30s, having a baby wasn’t really very important to me, and I’d have hated if I didn’t have the option and the freedom to do what I needed to do for my own life.”
Interestingly, the reaction to this casual conversation – in which the killing of nine or ten pre-born babies was discussed and profanely defended – was horror, both on social media and even in the press, with notable exceptions, tinged their coverage with disapproval. Although pro-abortion commentators cannot say why, the lighthearted, cheery discussion of multiple abortions seems… wrong, somehow.
But Allen has long been open about her pro-abortion position. In 2012, while pregnant (with a baby she kept), she tweeted in response to U.K. Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt’s suggestion that the abortion limit should be reduced to 12 weeks by saying: “Can small-minded idiot blokes stop telling women whether or not they’re entitled to abortions please?”
In 2022, she joined Olivia Rodrigo onstage at the Glastonbury music festival for her hit song F*** You to denounce the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade; on Instagram, she wrote:
I wish people would stop posting examples of exceptional reasons for having abortions. Most people I know, myself included, just didn’t want to have a f****** baby. And that is reason enough! We don’t have to justify it. It shouldn’t have to be said, and I think all these examples just play into the hands of the baddies.
Pre-born children must pay the price for the promiscuity of their parents, and thus a young, wealthy singer can have such a perverted view of love and children that she can confuse a man funding the abortion of the child he conceived with her as “romantic.” Unlike the average pro-abortion person, Lily Allen is honest about what abortion culture is all about: the right to kill a baby, for any reason or for no reason at all, simply because you don’t want an expletive child at the time.
Abortion advocates who are shocked by Allen and Oliver’s cheery boasting about feticide have no right to be. This is the culture they wanted. This is the culture that they got.
