It's almost as if God doesn't want Lily Allen to go to America

Of course, if God really wanted to keep Keith Allen's daughter out of the US, he'd have just organised something for immigration, so we must put the lightning strike on her plane down to natural causes. Lily, apparently, didn't take it well:

A fellow passenger revealed: "On our descent into LA, there was a deafening bang as the plane was struck by lightning. It hit one wing, travelled across the plane and left via the other.

"A massive wobble and a sudden drop in altitude followed. Lily and her friend John, who are not great flyers, both burst into tears."

Interesting that this passenger was so well informed about Lily, the name of her travelling companion and their general attitude to air travel - presumably they were chanting "This is my friend John... we don't like to fly at the best of times... this is my friend John..."
