The Fratellis have branded Lily Allen a “snobby f***ing brat” for heckling them at the Brit Awards.
The rockers beef with Allen started after the singer heckled them as they beat her to ‘Best Breakthrough Act’ at the awards.
Bassist Barry tells The Sun, “I’ve never properly met her but when we were going up to collect our Brit she shouted, ‘You’re a robbing c***’ to Jon, saying we had robbed the award from her.
"I’ve no time for the girl. She’s a snobby f***ing brat. It’s Keith Allen’s daughter so what can you expect?”
Barry goes on to criticise Lily for pulling out of her tour of America earlier this year, insisting his band would never do that to their adoring fans.
“A couple of times we’ve wanted to pack it in and go home but we’ve carried on for the fans who have bought tickets. Lily Allen is a different kettle of fish,” he explains.
“She’s a pop artist so she never went through two years of touring constantly to get a break.”
The Fratellis have just pulled out of their own American dates, after claiming the Coachella festival last week left them “exhausted”.

- fuck the pair of you. the fratellis have toured pretty much non-stop since may 2005, they need a break more than lily allen ever would.
- I agree with them, Lilly Allen...dull, dull, dull.
- haha, this is funny. ”Barry goes on to criticise Lily for pulling out of her tour of America earlier this year, insisting his band would never do that to their adoring fans.” Unless they’re exhausted of course!!
