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.”
