Lily Allen has unveiled the video premiere to her new single Hard Out Here.

The track, widely expected to appear on the star’s forthcoming album due next year, is Allen’s first official single release since 2009’s Who’d Have Known, taken from No 1 album It’s Not Me, It’s You.

The singer teased the announcement of new music only earlier today, driving fans to her new website through a series of clues, whilst again taking to Twitter to confirm the release of new music.

Allen is currently riding high thanks to her involvement in John Lewis’ heartwarming new Christmas TV advert, dubbed ‘The Bear and The Hare’ after covering Keane’s hit <strong>Somewhere Only We Know for the soundtrack.
