Lily Allen Gets Stripped Searched And Locked Up

Lily Allen's US visa has been canceled after a Sunday night run-in with the U.S. Department of Immigration at LAX, during which she was strip-searched (ooh!), locked in a cell for five hours (eww!), and quizzed about her recent altercation with a paparazzo outside a London nightclub (don't these people read the tabloids?).

Allen is allowed to stay in the States for the rest of her current trip--which includes a stop in Vegas, where she'll celebrate the MTV Video Music Awards kickoff and shoot a video with Kanye West, who's clearly going for the Stereogum demo these days--but whether or not she'll be able to come back into the country and tour the West Coast this fall is dependent on how authorities here are feeling about her. Showing off her third nipple is probably out, as far as efforts to impress them go. If only more bloggers worked for the Feds!
