Lippy Lou (born Louise Neale; 12 July 1975) is a British recording artist who had a brief recording career in the mid-1990s.

Career[edit]

In 1995, Lippy Lou released two singles, "Liberation" and "Freaks", on Boy George's More Protein label. Both singles were produced by Mike Koglin, and entered the UK top 100 singles chart.[2]

"Liberation" was described by Billboard as a "coming out anthem."[3] The chorus of "Freaks" was based on the Was (Not Was) song "Out Come the Freaks".[3] Although Lippy Lou made further recordings,[4] an album was not released.
