Joss Stone reckons Lily Allen only sells records because of her celebrity status, and not because of the quality of her music.

Yeah, tell us something we don't know, Joss. Though it has to be said that people like me have been NOT been buying Lily Allen's music because of her celebrity status, and then I discover she's released a single I really dig. But whatever.

Anyway, here's what Stone said: "She needs to sell records because she's not a singer, and that's not an offence to her because I think that she knows that too. I think she's a performer and she's more of a personality than she is a singer. But I think when musicians are really making real music, people come to the show and that's what we make our money from, from playing live. And I think it's probably harder for an artist like Lily and any other pop acts. It's really about the track and about their personality and their celebrity and that's how they make their money".
