Prank Photo of Lily Allen In Handcuffs Warrants Police Investigation

Australian police are investigating a prank photo of Lily Allen in handcuffs that was reportedly taken while Allen was touring in Australia, Billboard reports. According to the story, Allen asked officers who were escorting her through the Gold Coast Airport in Queensland, Australia to cuff her while she posed on her knees for a photograph.

The image was later uploaded to her instagram and tweeted, but when Allen arrived to perform at Splendour in the Grass festival in Australia's North Byron Parklands, she was confronted by police. The photo has since been removed from her Instagram.

A spokesperson to the Australian Federal Police told the New Zealand Herald:

"At her request members involved placed open handcuffs for a photo opportunity. It appears the members involved were caught in the moment and standard protocol were breached. It is subject to internal processes."

No further comments have been made at this time.

Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
