Lily Allen on the January 2008 Cover of GQ (Britain)
Image and video hosting by TinyPic

She shed 19 lb in six weeks after being diagnosed with a heart murmur, now Lily Allen is celebrating her slim line physique with a sultry new photo shoot.

The Smile singer makes a smoldering appearance on the cover of this month's GQ magazine.

The outspoken 22-year-old has revealed how her new health regime, which includes intense workouts and dieting, has overhauled her outlook on life too.

She explains how many of her high profile feuds - she has rowed with the members of Girls Aloud among others - were fueled by insecurities about her appearance.

She told the magazine: "A lot of that stuff I said was because I didn't feel confident.

"I felt like, 'Oh God, I'm short, fat, ugly...and I hate all these people who flaunt their beauty'.

"Ever since a kid I've felt like I'm possibly the uncoolest, naffest person ever to walk the earth."

"But I feel great at the moment. I actually don't have one bad thing to say about anything."

Perhaps her new attitude has also been influenced by her new romance - Lily has been dating Ed Simons of The Chemical Brothers for two months and has now decided to set up home with him.

She is in the process of buying a £700,000 pad in trendy Queen's Park, North London, and 37-year-old Ed is to be part of the furniture.

She has revealed: "I'm moving there in January. Ed and I haven't discussed when he'll move in yet, but we both know it will happen.

"I want the house to reflect my personality, so I'll be in total control of the interior design.

"Obviously, I won't be doing any of the actual painting myself – I'll be telling other people what to do."

“A lot of that stuff I said was because I didn’t feel confident,” says Lily. “I felt like, ‘Oh God, I’m short, fat, ugly…and I hate all these people who flaunt their beauty’.

Her whole "They're too skinny and good looking! It sets a bad example for girls!" shtick was so transparent. People who obsessively critique others' appearance only do it b/c they're insecure.

It’s sad that she had to drop 20lbs just to get over her image issues tho

So she put people who were skinny down, and then gets skinny and says she feels great and everything in her life is perfect.

Is she a hypocrite or what?

Dude, she did it to get healthy. She had a damn heart murmur.

That's not being a hypocrite, that's taking care of yourself.

I'm so happy for her, but I'm also kinda disappointed - not in her, because it's awesome she's taking care of herself. Just, she was one of the more genuine celebrities, and her insecurities about her weight made her seem so much more human...Now she's trim and thin and...very Hollywood. She's still Lily Allen, and I still love her to death, just part of me is kinda sad. It doesn't even make sense, I know, because I'd so much rather have her HEALTHY. Idk...

This picture is amazing, but I totally called that after her "I refuse to be conformist and skinny" comment that she'd turn around and lose weight. If the heart murmur thing is genuine, then congrats to her, but still. It's just irritating.
