Washington, September 28 : Lily Allen has revealed that she once performed live while suffering chronic diarrhoea.

The 24-year-old singer fell sick with an upset stomach during a show in Seattle, US, but refused to keep fans waiting.

"The worst was being on stage in Seattle two years ago and I came down with diarrhoea but I still went on,” Contactmusic quoted her as having told Q magazine.

“I was desperate for a poo the whole way through. At the end of the show I went to the toilet and it would not stop.

"The crowd were going, ''Lily! Lily!'', for an encore. I didn''t feel I could send anyone out and say, ''Will you lot shut up, she''s having a c**p'', but that was the truth," she added. (ANI)
