Lily Allen says many celebrities make her feel "obese".

The 'Smile' singer - who is a size 12 - has slammed skinny stars, saying they make her feel bigger than she really is.

Lily said: "I know I'm not overweight, but in this industry I do feel obese half the time.

"When I go on shoots I have so many embarrassing moments when the stylist gets out sample size dresses, which are about a 6 or 8 and won't even go near me.

"When I was younger I always felt big. Everyone wants long, thin legs, but only a few people have them.

"A lot of the way I dress is to do with covering up parts I worry about. It's less of a fashion statement and more of a fashion fix."

The 22-year-old also revealed she has so many dresses she is worried of being buried in a clothes mountain.

She said: "I'm insane. I have way too many clothes. I've stuffed my mum's house full of them and my boyfriend Seb's place is crammed.

"I'm moving into my new place in a few weeks and I'll be in there surrounded by mountains of dresses."
