Lily Allen claims ‘calculated’ Beyoncé is getting help with youthful appearance

Who’d have known she could be so shady?

Lily Allen threw shade at Beyoncé when she joked that she is “getting some help” in maintaining her youthful appearance.

“She does look great,” Miquita Oliver said while hosting Allen, 38, on her podcast “Miss Me?”

“She makes turning 40 exciting,” added Oliver, 39, while the pair discussed Beyoncé’s brand-new country album “Cowboy Carter.”

“Yeah, but she’s getting some help,” quipped Allen.

The remark did not sit well with Oliver, who quickly jumped to the “Single Ladies” singer’s defense.

“She has not had any work done, if that’s what you’re implying,” Oliver fumed.

“I didn’t say that,” the “Smile” songstress retorted. “But she’s got a great stylist, great hair people, she works out, got the access to the best personal trainers in the world … she’s Beyoncé.”

According to the Grammy nominee, Beyoncé’s promotion for the new record was “calculated.”

“It’s quite an interesting thing to do when you’re trying to tackle a new genre and you pick the biggest song in that genre,” continued Allen. “I mean you do you, Beyoncé.”

“I think it’s been quite calculated,” Allen said. “I feel like when Jay-Z got up at the Grammys, that was part of this campaign. She was wearing the blonde wig, a cowboy hat and he did that wig.”

“It was about challenging the institution and now she is the most played woman on country music,” Allen explained further. “I’m here because I love country music and always have done, not saying Beyoncé doesn’t but I tell stories in my music and that’s what country music is.”

Beyoncé’s 27-track country album dropped last week. Prior to the full release, the “Halo” songstress became the first black woman to hit the No. 1 slot on the Billboard Country Charts.

The 32-time Grammy Award winner announced the album in February when she appeared in a Super Bowl commercial for Verizon — and casually revealed she would be releasing a brand-new LP.

According to the “Crazy in Love” hitmaker, the album serves as an “Act II” of “Renaissance,” her album cycle that began with “Renaissance: Act I” in 2022.

Many have since speculated whether or not the singer has just secured her place as the winner of the coveted Album of the Year at next year’s Grammy Awards.
