‘Sheezus’ Singer Lily Allen Turned Down ‘Yara Greyjoy’ Role In ‘Game Of Thrones’ Because She Didn’t Want To Be ‘Touched Up’ By Her Own Brother!

"Ask Me Anything" singer Lily Allen was not too happy when she was asked to play a role on the popular HBO show, Game of Thrones. If she had accepted the gig, the British pop star would have been acting opposite her real-life brother, causing more than a few royally awkward moments.  

Before you get mad at Allen for turning down Game of Thrones, let's remember what happened in the second season.  Theon Greyjoy (Alfie Allen) returns to Pyke Island and is greeted by a mysterious stranger. While riding behind her on horseback, Theon the not-so-gently gropes the breasts of the woman, whispering foul-mouthed dirty talk into her ear. After the hot and heavy exchange, Theon is ready to pull his pants down after he plants a wet kiss on her.

But nothing is ever what it seems on Game of Thrones. The mysterious stranger Theon seduces is actually his sister, Yara. Now swap Gemma Whelan (who currently plays Yara) and imagine Allen in her place. Total gross-fest.

 Allen talked about the possibility of going to first base with her flesh and blood. "I've been asked to do a Game of Thrones cameo," she explained on an Ask Me Anything session on Reddit. "They asked me if I'd be interested in playing Theon's sister, and I felt uncomfortable because I would have had to go on a horse and he would have touched me up and sh*t. Once they told me what was entailed, I said, 'No thanks!' I would be open to doing a musical cameo like Sigur Ros, though."

Games of Thrones would have had one of the biggest "Ewww!" moments in history if real-life siblings Lily and Alfie Allen played Yara and Theon Greyjoy.I really hope the Game of Thrones showrunners pick up Allen's offer for a song on the hit show instead.
