Allen defended herself on her MySpace writing, “Now it’s all died down I’m saying my side of what I can’t believe is considered to be a story. Elton john and I are friends. I was honored when Elton asked me to present the GQ awards with him this year in association with Elton’s AIDS foundation. Not only was it for a good cause but who would say no to Elton.

“I’m not defending my drunkeness because i don’t need to, I’m 23 it was an awards ceremony I drank the free champagne, how awful of me. Trying to create a feud on the other hand, and trying to make me out as being some rude little girl with a drink problem is just unfair, Elton and I exchanged jokes and there were no hard feelings at all, infact neither of us gave it a second thought. It’s sad that an evening enjoyed by all had to ruined by some bitter journos again.

She continues, “I turned up and presented an awards ceremony for charity, I drank some champagne and went home for 12.30 and again I’ve been made to feel like a bad friend and an embarrassment to my fans and the people who support me. I shouldn’t have to defend myself when I’ve done nothing wrong.

“And by the way, to all the photographers waiting outside my house. I won’t be leaving for a while, all my friends have gone to Bestival and i’ve got enough food and fags to last me till wednesday, so you might as well f*ck off and find somebody else to make miserable.
