MIGRANTS: The British star came to help the volunteers …
Neither seen nor known. Her visit to the “Jungle” in Calais had gone unnoticed. Impossible to know when Lily Allen visited the camp of migrants. One thing is certain: her coming was revealed on Wednesday in a report broadcast by the BBC .
The singer apologized “on behalf of my country”
It shows in particular the British singer volunteering to help sort clothes to migrants. But the emotion of story sequence happens when the star speaks with the unaccompanied minors in the camp. While talking to a young Afghan, Lily Allen burst into tears before apologising: “I apologise on behalf of my country. I’m sorry for what we have put you through”

Charlie Winston had shot a video last year in the “Jungle”
Before her, other personalities from the world of music have visited the camp. We remember especially the singer, Charlie Winston, who had recorded his video Say something in September 2015.
