Lily Allen has bravely opened up on her experience of sleeping with a TV star at a 'very young' age.
The 38-year-old 'Smile' singer recalled the situation chatting to her friend, Miquita Oliver, on the BBC Miss Me? podcast.
She also revealed she can no longer listen to a 'very embarrassing' album he chose to play while they were having sex together.

While Lily didn't name who the celebrity was, she did share that he decided to play a Moby album during the encounter.
She told Miquita: "I'm not going to say this person's name, but you know that TV star that I had sex with when I was very young.
"When I went to his hotel, he put on the Moby album. And I cannot, if it comes on I'm just like... it was that period of time and he thought it was so cool."
Lily went on to confess she 'doesn't actually know when she lost her virginity', adding that it was 'pretty traumatising'.
"I actually don't know when I lost my virginity, is that bad? It was between one of two people," she said, explaining that it could either be a classmate or an 'older' guy from holiday.
She carried on: "One was a guy who was quite a lot older than me called Fernando in Brazil. I went on holiday with my dad and my brother.
"It's actually pretty traumatising, as are most of my childhood stories and escapades. We went on holiday to Brazil, to this weird hotel. And it was like a sort of sporty resort and there was professional footballers teaching my brother and stuff how to play football.
"Anyway I met this guy called Fernando in the bar and we went back to his room and I stayed over. And me and Alfie were sharing a bedroom and I fell asleep in his room and I didn't go back to my room."
Lily continued: "So my dad woke up the next day, went to go and check on me and I wasn't in the room and there was a full on panic.
"I woke up, left Fernando's room and I came out and it was literally like an episode of the Brazilian The Bill, there were police everywhere.
"And my dad was like in pieces, they'd found like a T-shirt that looked like the T-shirt that I was wearing hanging on a twig on the beach and they thought I'd drowned."
She added: "So I didn't have sex again for a while. And I certainly didn't surrender that information, I wasn't like 'Oh sorry dad, I was just losing my virginity to a 21-year-old called Fernando'."
A fews years back in 2018, Lily previously spoke about a celebrity who she had sex with when she was 14-years-old.
However, it's not clear if the celebrity is the same person she mentioned in the podcast.
She did explain she had watched the star compete in a charity football match before they had sex in his hotel.

Lily explained what happened in her book, My Thoughts Exactly where she wrote: "After the match, the TV star left his football gear in my dad's car, and I was dispatched to his hotel to return it.
"We arranged to meet in the bar there. He bought me a couple of drinks, then took me up to his room and had sex with me.
"I was 14. He was 19, but to me he seemed like someone from a different generation. Afterwards, I felt funny about it. I knew what had happened wasn't right."
