ALLEN CROWNED QUEEN OF IVOR NOVELLOS British singer LILY ALLEN has been crowned the queen of the prestigious Ivor Novello songwriting awards after winning three top prizes at the ceremony on Thursday (20May10). The Smile hitmaker was in "floods of tears" after picking up honours for best song musically and lyrically, as well as most performed work - both for her single The Fear. She also scooped the coveted songwriter of the year award, considered to be one of the most prestigious record industry honours. Speaking about the chart-topping hit that earned her the accolades, Allen told the ceremony: "This song is so much about feeling so lost. It has made me feel quite found all of a sudden." The hat-trick of honours is the perfect swan song to Allen's music career - she has already announced plans to retire from recording and touring later this year (10) to concentrate on starting a family and running a designer clothes hire shop. Other big winners at this year's ceremony in London include Paul Weller, who received the lifetime achievement award, and Scottish singer Paolo Nutini, who won the best album title for Sunny Side Up. Former Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr was handed the inspiration award, and Frankie Goes to Hollywood producer Trevor Horn received the outstanding contribution honour. Composer Sir Tim Rice was awarded the Academy Fellowship, and singer-songwriter Imogen Heap won the prize for international achievement. The classical music award went to Sir Peter Maxwell Davies, Neil Sedaka took home the international achievement honour, and singer Natasha Khan - who performs under the name Bat For Lashes - won best contemporary single, for her song Daniel.
