Lily Allen is desperate to top the Billboard charts this week, and is begging her American fans to buy her album It’s Not Me, It’s You.
The British singer took to her MySpace blog to express her hopeful excitment:
“Earlier today my record company told me It’s Not Me, It’s You has a pretty good chance of going to number 1 in the U.S. charts this week.
I’m currently sitting behind Alison Krauss and Robert Plant, who, quite rightly, are sitting at no. 1. I’ve never had a number one album in England, never mind the U.S., and all of this is a bit crazy. I could well be up for no. 1 here, which makes me want to cry a bit.
I’ve never begged you to buy from me ever, but I am now. This will be the only time ever in my life that this could happen for me. Help me get to no.1, you’re the only hope I’ve got guys. I’ll love you forever.”
Are you going to buy it? I’m actually a fan of the tracks I’ve heard off the album… but Lily’s promise to love me forever might not be enough to motivate me.
