The 'Fear’ singer made the announcement on her new blog – called It’s Not Alright, which aims to stop people file sharing music on the internet – revealing she has no plans to release new songs or tour again.
She wrote: 'Just so you know, I have not renegotiated my record contract and have no plans to make another record. I do however remain a fan of new music, so this is not some selfish crusade.
'The days of me making money from recording music has been and gone as far as I’m concerned, so I don’t stand to profit from legislation. Except future purchases of previously recorded material.'
The 24-year-old star is now focusing on her appearance in a London theatre production called 'Reasons to be Pretty’, which follows a group of working-class people who are bored with their lives.
It is not the first time Lily has voiced her desire to give up her singing career.
Earlier this month, she said: 'I'm not going record and tour again for quite a while.
"I finish up my dates in March and I'll be ready to do something else. I've been on the road for four years and I've given my voice a real run for its money. I'm struggling, so I'm going to try something new.
"The play is about themes close to my heart, about the really damaging cult of beauty among young girls.'
Red Hot Chili Peppers have been nominated for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on their first year of eligibility.
Artists can be inducted 25 years after their debut release and both the 'Californication’ hitmakers and rapper LL Cool J have made the shortlist in their first year of contention for the honour.
Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith said: 'It’s a real honour to be nominated in our first year of eligibility. Obviously the Hall of Fame has excellent musical taste."
After 10 years of being snubbed by the nominating committee, 'Crazy Nights’ rockers KISS have received their first nomination for induction, after previously blasting the Hall of Fame for ignoring them.
Founder member Gene Simmons complained last year: "There are disco bands, rap bands, Yiddish folk song bands in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but not KISS. I believe we have more gold records in America than any other group, but it’s OK.'
However, the nomination could cause them problems with the ballot listing the four original members, Gene, Paul Stanley Ace Frehley and Peter Criss but Paul – who along with Gene remains in the group – is unsure the right people are listed.
Paul said: "There have been a lot of people who've been a part of this, some longer than others and some who deserve recognition more than others. Even the non-make-up years produced some platinum and double-platinum albums, and we had some very healthy sales in terms of albums and concerts through the '80s and '90s. So if we should ever be asked to accept induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, it would be something to think about."
Also nominated for the first time are Genesis, The Hollies and Jimmy Cliff.
They join previously suggested artists ABBA, The Chantels, Darlene Love, Laura Nyro, The Stooges and Donna Summer.
Five of the 12 nominees will be chosen for induction from ballots cast by more than 500 music industry voters.
The chosen five will be revealed in January, with an induction ceremony taking place on March 15 at New York’s Waldorf Astoria hotel.

Miley Cyrus had a restaurant closed so she and 100 friends could party together.
The 'Hannah Montana’ star wanted to celebrate her sold-out concert at Los Angeles Staples Center on Tuesday night (22.09.09) by dining at the newly-opened eatery Katsuya.
The 16-year-old star told bosses she wanted privacy 'no matter the cost' so booked out the entire restaurant.
Miley was dressed in an open back, black mini-dress and high black boots as she sipped on a special Katsuya drink.
A source added to website RadarOnline: 'She was in great spirits and danced almost the whole night.'
Miley was keen to keep her party private as she recently claimed her life is being ruined by the paparazzi.
The 'See You Again' singer blasted photographers who follow her everywhere and has branded the profession "disgusting".
She wrote on her Twitter page: "Being a paparazzi is the most DISGUISTING job imaginable.
"Being followed around by creepy photographers is NOT in the job description! YOU try being stuck inside cuz creepers are waiting for u (sic)."
Jackie Jackson cries himself to sleep over his brother Michael’s death.
The 58-year-old musician is struggling to cope with his younger brother’s tragic passing in June from acute Propofol intoxication and often wakes up feeling overwhelmed with grief.
He told ET Online: "It's hard for me to sleep because I think about him constantly, all the time. Sometimes I wake up with tears in my eyes because he meant so much to the world and also to me as a brother. I just miss him dearly, so much and I just can't believe he is not here."
The former Jackson Five singer and his brothers Marlon and Tito have spoken out about the last time they saw Michael alive.
The four men had an emotional reunion at a party in celebration of their parents Katherine and Joe’s 60th wedding anniversary just weeks before Michael’s death.
Tito said: "I told him that I loved him and he told me that he loved me more. We gave each other a hug and that whole thing. So, I was very happy that I had the opportunity to see him at that moment. And that's the last time I saw my brother.'
Marlon added: "What's comforting for me is that I think he is at a better place for himself. And a piece of him will live forever within me. So, that's my peace."
Jackie – real name Sigmund Esco Jackson – also revealed how excited the 'Thriller’ singer was about performing for loved-ones at his record-breaking 'This Is It’ London residency, which was due to open in July.
Jackie explained: 'I asked him, 'How's it going?' And he said, 'It's going to be incredible.' He couldn't wait for us to see the show. He wouldn't tell us anything about it. He just wanted us to see it from our own eyes."

Underlining their timeless appeal and unique status in music, The Beatles have broken multiple chart records around the world following the September 9, 2009 (9-9-09) CD release of their digitally re-mastered catalogue.
In the major music markets of North America, Japan and the UK, consumers purchased more than 2.25 million copies of The Beatles' re-mastered albums, individually and in two multiple-CD boxed sets, one in stereo and one in mono, during the first five days of release (excluding non-traditional retail outlets whose sales are not tracked by the chart compilers).
The Beatles' original UK studio albums were re-mastered by a dedicated team of engineers at Abbey Road Studios in London over a four year period, carefully maintaining the authenticity and integrity of the original analogue recordings. The result is the highest fidelity the catalogue has seen since its original release

Miley Cyrus claims her life is being ruined by the paparazzi.
The 'See You Again’ singer has blasted photographers who follow her everywhere and has branded the profession 'disgusting'.
The 16-year-old singer wrote on her Twitter page: 'Being a paparazzi is the most DISGUISTING job imaginable.
'Being followed around by creepy photographers is NOT in the job description! YOU try being stuck inside cuz creepers are waiting for u. [sic]'
In reply to her comments gossip blogger Perez Hilton defended photographers, saying: 'But some of them are your friends! You're always chummy with that one videographer!'
Miley – who has sold over four million records - has previously revealed she has bad dreams about being photographed.
She said: 'I have nightmares about paparazzi. I always have these flashing things in my dreams. They're so scary."
Miley has also released a song, 'Fly On The Wall’, about the pitfalls of fame.
After an incredible 2008/09 so far, which has included a debut top 10 album, 2 full headline UK and European tours, European dates with Simple Plan, Radio 1 B listed singles, over 125,000 singles sold and a whole run of festivals, ELLIOT MINOR are now set to release their new single 'Electric High’ on October 5th and second album 'Solaris’ October 19th.
'Electric High’ signifies a more mature leap forward in every department for ELLIOT MINOR, from playing to song writing, production and ambition. Along with recent single 'Solaris’, front man and songwriter Alex Davies started writing the new material as soon as the band came off the road in December last year. The new songs pull from the band’s experiences of making and touring their first album, as songwriter Alex Davies says 'I had heard about the pressures of a second album on the songwriter and I can assure you it is true, you have all your life to write your first album and months to write your second. Fortunately I had a load of melodies running around my head and lyric ideas that pulled from the changes in my life over the years that Elliot Minor was formed till now. The majority of the songs are uplifting as I was being positive in a pretty tough year to work through and the others are more personal and intimate.
The new single was recorded during the album sessions starting in April this year at Chapel Studios in Lincoln and at Mavehole Studios in York. Produced once again by Jim Wirt (Incubus, Hoobastank, Something Corporate) and mixed by the multi Grammy award winning Tom Lord-Alge (Manic Street Preachers, Taking Back Sunday, Weezer, The Rolling Stones), this second collaboration meant that the band and Jim knew what had worked before but gave them a lot of room to add new creative ideas and to push into bold new territory. Jim Wirt says 'Electric High was a natural,.everything came together immediately! We ended up using the original scratch vocal, and the original guitars, this is what makes this song stand out, nothing contrived about it.' Live wise, the band have played Oxegen, T in the Park, Leeds and Reading and Download last year. They also played main support to Simple Plan in Europe and
Fall Out Boy in the UK, have been to Japan three times doing their own headline shows, have toured as a headline act through Europe into Paris, Prague, Brussels and Amsterdam on every tour. On top of this, they have also taken the likes of You Me at Six, We are the Ocean, The Higher and Mission District out as support. A huge UK headline tour has now been announced, full list of dates are below:

Geri Halliwell has confirmed the Spice Girls are discussing reforming again.
The singer, who famously quit the girl band in May 1998, says she and the other members – Victoria Beckham, Mel B, Emma Bunton and Mel C – are considering getting back together for a third time.
She said on UK TV show 'This Morning’: "We are friends first and foremost. Obviously a career and music evolved through that friendship I think. Whatever happens afterwards is a bonus. We always talk about creative plans. Right - now, I'll be honest: We are gathering information about a possibility, but I don't like to... when you are evolving a plan, you don't want to share it with the world."
Her comments come just days after she met up for dinner with Emma and the two Mels, where it is thought they discussed the plans.
Mel B later hinted at an imminent reunion, writing on her Twitter account: "Spice girls, stadiums?????????? Had dinner with the amazing melc emma and geri I love them so much (sic)."
Victoria was not at the meeting, because she was busy launching her Spring/Summer 10 collection at New York Fashion Week.
The girl group shot to fame in 1996 with their hit single 'Wannabe'. They sold over 65 million albums before going their separate ways in 2001.
They briefly reformed in 2007 for the hugely successful 'Return of the Spice Girls' tour, which saw them perform 47 concerts across the world.
Fall Out Boy bassist Pete Wentz admits to not being an avid fan of comic books. When he started chatting with Los Angeles designer Darren Romanelli about developing a visual project with the band, however, the idea of creating a comic seemed like a natural fit.
"We were both kindred spirits in terms of creating cohesive art on multiple platforms," Wentz says. The collaboration between Romanelli and the band led to "Fall Out Toy Works," a five-part series published by Image Comics, with the first installment released September 2.
A futuristic parable involving a toymaker and his robotic female creation, "Toy Works" is loosely based on "Tiffany Blews," a track on Fall Out Boy's multiplatinum album "Folie a Deux."
A fan of Romanelli's fashion line, Wentz initially approached him about designing the stage for Fall Out Boy's tour. Romanelli wanted to work on something more ambitious with the band as well, and after Wentz sent him a few songs, "Tiffany Blews" struck him as the perfect opportunity.
"Once we started brainstorming, we realized a lot of the lyrics have a certain grittiness to them," Romanelli says. "From there, the idea just snowballed into a comic."
The band and Romanelli put together a team of animation heavyweights for the project, including "Bulletproof Monk" writer Brett Lewis and Imaginary Friends Studios' Sam Basri for artwork.
The self-funded comic-book series is the latest endeavor in the band's string of nonmusic projects since the 2008 release of "Deux." Wentz opened a Los Angeles art gallery with Gym Class Heroes' Travis McCoy in December, and in March the band unveiled "Fall Out Boy Trail," a videogame that riffs on the computer classic "Oregon Trail."
When it comes to "Toy Works," however, Fall Out Boy is committed to giving its far-reaching concept time to breathe. "The biggest thing is that it needed to feel like an entire world encapsulated in a comic," Wentz says. "It's essentially about creating the perfect girl and artificial love, and we wanted to explore the morality in that."
Publication of the series' subsequent issues, which retail for $3.99 each, will be staggered throughout next year; a full-color collector's edition will be available in spring 2010. A motion-animation companion to the comic, featuring voice work by Wentz and Fall Out Boy singer Patrick Stump, will also be available online in conjunction with the release of the second issue. The electronic version, which is now being previewed in an online teaser trailer, will be available on iPhone and iPod applications as well.
Fall Out Boy continues to work on new music, but Wentz believes "Toy Works" is another creative way of reaching out to fans in the meantime. "Music and entertainment are changing so fast, we need to be ahead of the curve," he says. "With stuff like this, we hope people can feel like they're a part of what we're doing."

The last original member of Sugababes Keisha Buchanan has left the group.
In a statement on Sugababes.com the group revealed that Keisha Buchanan would be going solo, while Heidi Range and Amelle Berrabah would still continue as 'Sugababes' with new member, former UK Eurovision entrant Jade Ewen.
Sugababes will still be releasing their new album 'Sweet 7' on November 23. Buchanan has since posted in Twitter that it was 'not her decision' to leave the band.

Michael died of acute Propofol Intoxication on June 25, just weeks before he was scheduled to begin the mammoth run of concerts at The 02 arena.
It seems that a fierce debate surrounding illegal and unauthorised file-sharing is in full swing within the music world. Lily Allen was one of the first stars to speak out on music piracy and she’s made it clear that in her opinion, music piracy is having a harmful effect on British music.
Other stars including James Blunt and Gary Barlow have now jumped in to support Lily’s views, they argue that illegal sharing is ruining the careers of current and new artists.
A number of musicians, including Ed O’Brien from Radiohead and Blur’s Dave Rowntree, have opposed these claims and believe that those who do file-share should not be punished.
David Hasselhoff claims he was rushed to hospital because of an ear infection.
The former 'Baywatch’ star claims rumours he was taken to Encino Hospital by paramedics because of a heavy drinking session on Sunday (20.09.09) are untrue and says he was taken unwell after mixing two medications.
David, 57, has been taking Antivert for a severe earache along with anti-alcohol drug Antabuse – which deters alcoholics from drinking.
His attorney Mel Goldsman said: "David was being treated for an inner ear infection and had a bad reaction to his medication over the weekend. He lost his equilibrium and it left him dizzy. This was all a misunderstanding. This was not an alcohol relapse.'
It had been reported the actor had collapsed 'drunk' at his Californian home and was found by his 17-year-old daughter Hayley.
Paramedics were called and David was taken to a local hospital by ambulance.
He left the medical facility on Sunday night.
The 'Knight Rider’ star has publicly battled alcoholism for several years and has been hospitalised for alcohol poisoning five times previously.
Robbie Williams is to perform with Take That next month.
The 'Bodies’ singer has been invited to play at a special concert the group’s singer Gary Barlow is organising in aid of charity Children in Need and plans to join his former bandmates for a one-off performance.
Robbie - who quit Take That in 1995, shortly before the rest of the group went their separate ways - said: 'Yes, something is finally going to happen. Me and Gary have been hanging out a lot lately, talking things over.
'It’s been absolutely amazing. I’ve always wanted to be in a band ever since we split.'
'Grace Kelly’ star Mika is one of the other stars performing at the event at London’s Royal Albert Hall and he is excited about Robbie returning to Take That – and has promised some surprises of his own.
He told Britain’s Daily Mirror newspaper: 'It would be great. I’m a real fan of Robbie and I really like his new single 'Bodies’.
'I’ll be performing a duet. I can’t say who with yet but there are going to be a lot of surprises.
'Gary has done a fantastic job. It’s going to be an amazing night.'
Meanwhile, Robbie has reportedly been taking his girlfriend alien hunting.
The singer – who recently moved back to England - has made several late-night trips to Cradle Hill, near Warminster, southern England, with actress Ayda Field to try and spot UFOs.
A source said: 'During the summer, Robbie and Ayda went on loads of late-night excursions. Cradle Hill used to be a really famous spot in the 60s and 70s where UFO hunters would gather en masse and scan the skies for signs of alien life. It’s undergone a bit of a revival recently so Robbie has taken Ayda up there to see if they can spot anything. Ayda loves it.'
Robbie, 35, is "obsessed" with extra-terrestrials, and claims to have seen three UFOs during his lifetime.
Yoko Ono thinks the new Beatles video game will help create "a world of peace".
The 76-year-old widow of 'Fab Four'singer John Lennon has praised Beatles Rock Band - which was released earlier this month - because it merges music and art to create amazing "healing vibrations".
She explained: "I think game is the second revolution. In the beginning they made a splash with their music; with the video game we're going to create a planet of music and art.
"Music and art are both very interesting healing vibrations, and with that vibration we can create the world we've always wanted, a world of peace."
Even though Lennon has been dead for nearly 30 years, Yoko claims she is still committed to ensuring he is "treated right".
She said: "I'm thankful that I'm in a position to look after John's legacy, because that's what he wanted me to do.
"We were both artists and understood exactly what it's like when your work isn't treated properly. I'm trying my best to make sure his is treated right."
When it comes to her own life, the provocative musician hopes she is forgotten as soon as she dies.
She told Britain's Observer newspaper: "What's written about me in newspapers is usually fiction. With the press you have to learn to read between the lines.
"I don't mind if no one remembers me. If I'm going to be remembered by the fictional notes the press wrote about me, why would I want to be remembered at all?"
Avril Lavigne was reportedly seen flirting with another man in the lead up to her split from husband Deryck Whibley.
The 'Girlfriend’ singer - who announced she was separating from the Sum 41 rocker last week – spent a month partying on oil heir Brandon Davis’ yacht in St. Tropez, South of France, and sources say the pair have grown very close.
One is quoted by gossip blogger Perez Hilton as saying: 'She was downing shots, drinking booze from the bottle and play-fighting men on the beach.
"She wasn't acting like a married woman at all."
However, sources close to Avril insist she and Brandon are "not involved romantically" and are 'just friends'.
Last December, Deryck warned Brandon - who has also dated Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton – away from his wife after he discovered the pair had been for dinner together.
He texted Brandon, saying: "Stay away from my wife."
Even though their three-year marriage is over, Avril has vowed to stay friends with her estranged husband.
In a statement on her website, she said: "Deryck and I have been together for six-and-a-half years. We have been friends since I was 17, started dating when I was 19, and married when I was 21. I am grateful for our time together, and I am grateful and blessed for our remaining friendship.
"I admire Deryck and have a great amount of respect for him. He is the most amazing person I know, and I love him with all my heart. Deryck and I are separating and moving forward on a positive note."
Alexandra Burke has become 'friends' with Beyonce Knowles.
The 'Single Ladies’ singer has become heavily involved with Alexandra after performing a duet with her on the final of British reality TV show 'The X Factor’ – which she subsequently won.
The 'Bad Boys’ singer has revealed Beyonce has been supporting her throughout the recording of her debut album 'Overcome’ in the US.
Alexandra, 21, said: 'She’s such a lovely woman and now I’m working with all her people.
'In the studio in New York I was singing and I opened my eyes and my girl Beyonce was standing there. I went to cuddle her and cried. She said, 'You can’t cry, we’re friends now.’ And I cried some more.
'I was like, 'You can’t tell me things like that. You’re Beyonce.’ '
Alexandra is remaining tight-lipped on whether 28-year-old Beyonce will appear on her album, but she hopes to perform with former Destiny’s Child star soon.
She added to Britain’s Daily Star newspaper: 'I can’t confirm anything yet, but I’m hoping to be on the European leg of Beyonce’s tour.'
Alexandra will perform her first single 'Bad Boys’ on 'The X Factor’ on October 11.
