Lily Allen reveals scientific side

Lily Allen knew that Wednesday's activation of the world's most powerful particle accelerator would not cause the end of the world.

On her MySpace blog, the singer commented that she would be extremely surprised if wormholes or black holes appeared once the Large Hadron Collider was switched on.

She said: "If these wormholes appear, I will personally eat the hat I was given for my first birthday before I received it."

Last month, the 'Smile' singer commented that she will find giving up drugs difficult.
