Lily Allen's mum was scared for how she'd handle fame

Lily Allen's mum, Alison Owen, has spoken to Grazia magazine about how she felt about Lily's music career taking off.

The film producer said, "I was extremely proud of what she had achieved, but I felt scared for her, protective of her, jealous other people had a part of her."

She added, "It felt as if she wasn't mine so much any more."

Alison even spoke about that GQ awards incident where she and Elton John, er, fell out.

She said, "I was worried because she had drunk too much and I don't want her to do anything she's going to feel bad about. That night got blown out of proportion, though. She's good friends with Elton, and they both thought it was funny."
