Just days after frolicking topless on the French Riviera, Lily Allen has created a spectacle of herself yet again.

The singer apparently built up quite a thirst during all that fun in the sun, and last night over-indulged in refreshments while partying with her father Keith Allen at a soirée for the film How To Lose Friends and Alienate People in Cannes.

At one point, the 23-year-old appeared to be road-testing the premise of the film as she slumped over a table in a complete wreck.

The star eventually had to be carried out of venue with her father on guard, and couldn't even hold herself up as she was driven back to her hotel in the back of a cab.

Earlier in the night, Lily laughed off the semi-nude paparazzi photographs taken of her at the exclusive Hotel du Cap Eden-Roc at the resort.

"I'm really, really happy, I'm really excited about it."

How To Lose Friends and Alienate People, starring Simon Pegg, Kirsten Dunst and Gillian Anderson, is based on the bestseller by Toby Young on his short-lived career at Vanity Fair.

Although the film is not yet finished, party-goers, which also included Natalie Imbruglia and Mischa Barton, were given a sneak peek of what to expect.
