Singer Lily Allen was denied access to the VIP area at the New Look Wireless Festival, according to reports.

Allen, 30, who was joined at the Finsbury Park event by her husband Sam Cooper and a group of friends, was attempting to get into the exclusive Live Nation area when the incident occurred.

According to The Sun the Hard Out Here singer said: “I don’t want to make an unnecessary scene. Can you get someone from Live Nation to get me in?”

But one security guard told the publication that the singer was left walking away to join the masses with her “tail between her legs”.

“I don't know who Lily thinks she is, but she's not getting past me,” she said.

“She was coming out with the lines but they weren't working. She had to walk away with her tail between her legs.”

The news comes less than a week after reports surfaced that the mother-of-two collapsed and was treated by paramedics near the Silver Hayes dance village at Glastonbury Festival.

Other stars at this weekend's festival included Alesha Dixon, Joey Essex and Brooklyn Beckham.

The oldest sibling of the Beckham clan was pictured backstage with One Direction singer Niall Horan as well as Will Smith and Jada Pinkett's children Jaden and Willow Smith.

Evening Standard has contacted a representative for Allen for a comment on the Wireless incident.
