I'm never gonna stop loving her but sometimes she really pushes my limits

Imagine being in your mid thirties and behaving like a naive, bratty, spoilt teenager. Can't relate

I don’t think I’m ever going to stop loving her, or stop listening to her music. But damn it’s something new every three months

They really think she is this subversive and elusive figure because she *checks notes* acts irresponsible during a global pandemic next we’re gonna get back to the discussion of whether this is part of her persona, and Lana is anti-mask, but Lizzy is pro-mask LMAO

ICU nurse in the covid unit and infection control, also finishing my masters in public health, hello!

Honestly I've had this exact thought too. Lana must genuinely be tired because everyone does come for her neck at everything she does, but if her tiredness really makes her this foolish in the middle of a pandemic then I do have to question her level of maturity, especially for a woman in her 30's. If she wants to be more controversial, there are other ways she could go about it

Why was Chuck saying "she's standing 6 meters apart from them" but in fan selfies she's literally standing skin to skin with them

Tbh, I just don't get her at this point.

this is such a bad take

No, she doesn’t. She wore a mesh mask and held an indoor signing in the middle of a pandemic. It’s dumb.

Kinda rude but he was honestly the only person who asked concrete questions about the album

Welp The Independent have written an article about the situation now : https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/music/news/lana-del-rey-facemask-mesh-la-fans-coronavirus-b756212.html?amp The fact that almost (ones that have more than two braincells) the entire fanbase agree collectively that she has gone 'n' fucked up should give Lana food for thought. Honestly she so far removed from her fanbase rn its worrying. I'm finding it harder and harder to defend her actions or at least try to understand why she's acting a certain way. She use to be genuinely smart and unique. Now she's become a shell of her former self. A vapid, LA so called baddie, tryhard parody of what she use to be. I wonder how the younger version of herself would react on seeing what she has become BC sure as eggs are eggs she'd be disgusted.

The secondhand shame I am feeling

The thing that I don't get is... Yes, the rhinestone mask looks really pretty & matches her outfit and I get that she likes it but why doesn't she just wear it ON TOP of a normal mask?? Like all this drama could've been so easily avoided.

My actual problem is more with the book signing event itself than the mask. The mask, of course is distasteful AF and she deserves everything that's come for her, but the event itself should have been avoided to begin with. She's so ignorant it's painful.

Just had the same thought. Is she just being an asshole for attention, does she think becoming the new "antagonist" of the music industry is fun or has she developed a God complex at this point? I GENUINELY don't know. She acts like an actual narcissist this year. Idk what happened but I'm not enjoying it, that's for sure.

You are NOT defending this bs. And no, it’s not her prerogative. While it is true that she tested negative, it is also true that - unless the test had been done literally the minute before AND she hadn’t been around people for at least 4 days prior to the book signing event (which I find questionable) - her being negative is no guarantee that she was not infected and infectious. It takes as many as 4 days for antibodies to show on a swab test or blood test. I am not so much bothered about the gathering if safety measures and social distancing were in place as for the stupid mask. This is so unbelievably ignorant it’s really taking something away from me appreciating her art.

Lana doesn't have a problem with wearing a mask but has a problem with wearing a mask that actually has the benefits of a mask???????????? My mind has never had to process something like this before

not even going to quote the horrible takes on this thread anymore. as a nurse that works in the (crowded) COVID unit and has held the hands of countless elderly people dying from yes, COVID, I do not think there’s anyway to justify Lana doing this. just admit that you don’t care about the lives of other people and try not sugar coating it. yes, the elderly are the ones mainly affected by COVID; they are still human beings. your actions affect not only them, but the people like me who work on the frontlines that have to deal with your irresponsible actions. do better.

part of me wonders - and pls don't drag me for this bc i don't mean this in a kind of "armchair psychologist" way or anything like that, literally just letting my mind wander and wonder - if she actually get kind of.... bored of having mainstream approval? and she's doing controversial stuff that she knows will get her in trouble in the court of public opinion and not caring about it because she actually really wants to appear as an underdog of sorts?

I mean when you look at it, she's been a disaster this year. First she delayed Violet hours before it was supposed to be released. Then she took a c*p to the Grammys Then she cancelled a tour 24 hours before it started Then there was Question for the Culture Then she showed BLM protesters' faces Then she started dating a new, very questionable dude Then she went to Mexico during a pandemic for a birthday party Then there was today And all that was sprinkled with reckless driving and numerous parties throughout rona Did I forget anything?

Her dad posted a pic of Chuck and Lana wearing the mesh mask and said "love this". And his previous post was literally dragging trump for not wearing a mask nnn

So funny how this girl asks her to read "Sportscar" & Lana looks at her like "wtf is wrong with this hoe" This makes me realize how LA people are a bunch of emos stanning LDR just cause it's "cool". Jesus Christ you don't even know the right poem's name.. So dumb

she isn’t the only dumb celebrity & no one has the right to put their nose on someone’s dating types yes what she did yesterday was horrible, but let’s leave her dating life bc it’s her own business

don’t you have an incel twitter account to be running? wearing a mask and not organising a large gathering with random people isn’t PC, but then again i guess consideration for the wellbeing of one another isn’t a social norm in an individualist society lana’s not some mysterious figure who doesn’t run with the crowd, she’s a grown woman pushing 35 who literally has been running with the crowd i.e. her political awakening and “hexing” trump in 2017 or whatever that shit was. everything she’s been doing lately is so obnoxious and weird. this isn’t who i once loved, maybe it’s because i’ve grown up since then but maybe it’s because lana hasn’t grown up at all. she’s free to carry on pulling this shit as long as she doesn’t go on another woe is me rant about how everyone criticises her edit: i’m sorry she actually IS 35 lmao

did she miss the attention that she always complains about?

Ngl I’m a little concerned about her. Not suggesting she’s suffering from mental health issues but her behavior is out of character and just weird imo. Idk maybe she’s fine but something bothers me about all this self-inflicted controversy.

Patti Smith literally signs hundreds of her poetry books inside bookstores when it's closed at night. This way there are no customers in the store as she's signing. The next day the book stores announces the sign books and puts them on sale. That's how it done. This keeps everyone safe while getting their signed copy from Patti. Patti then reads and answers questions on Instagram from fans like she would do at a book signing. How hard is that for Lana to do?

“Please wear a mask. Just not, you know, this one.” *wears exact same mask in public and invites everyone in LA to join*

Ya'll but seriously imagine how unhinged you have to be to tell someone with a medical degree about Covid from someone without a medical degree

what is her problem omg.

Omg she really is getting dragged on twitter? currently on number 1! She's losing all of her streams from other Fandoms and I gotta say she deserved it this time.

But thats not how it works. She isnt only putting herself at risk, but everybody else too.

if i see another smooth brain take abt how the mask has a transparent layer underneath, i s2g. she's a grown ass woman who knows full well what she's doing, she can take -and deserves- the heat.

that mask is so embarrassing. im sorry. it just makes her seem very ignorant. unless she tested negative from a rapid test literally 5 minutes before, thats still not even a good enough excuse, she should be protecting herself as well.

charli appreciation post she's just a genuinely nice unproblematic artist who constantly keeps her fans fed n stays connected w them n uses her platform for good n constalty serves f*ck lana del rey

Came back to say Lana is stupid for wearing a glitter mesh mask to make it look like she cares when she doesn’t I still believe she wasn’t wearing a mask underneath in that fan photo from before, and it feels like this is further proof Chuck is stupid for saying that Lana tested negative; it doesn’t matter at all, she can get infected at any second at that event (and I would add that she’s helping spreading the virus if she wasn’t negative) Ben is just as clueless as we are when it comes to the album. “Soon” in August and “soon” yesterday. I was going to say earlier today that he probably tells us soon to keep up calm but I was too lazy to type it here. So I do it now instead. Whenever we hear “soon” in the future, I will take it as “I dunno??”. We’ve heard it far too many times and, honestly, it’s frustrating to hope for something “soon” when it’s months away. Ed was probably right when he said the album wasn’t done; Lana still hasn’t decided on the final track list. I’m massively disappointed in Lana... again. For, what, the 5th time this year? More? Sometimes I wonder why I support her... it would certainly be easier not to if her music wasn’t that good. I hope she adds Dealer now that she’s heard fans ask about it. I don’t want another Yosemite, please. I’m disappointed And lowkey mad peace out

You complain about this site being ''toxic'' but then you're telling good member of this site @Tulips to kill themself? disgusting

I just don't understand why she's wearing this mask when we've seen her wear proper ones? And how could she think holding a signing in an indoor space was a good idea??

Maybe we should have took the hint she’s a conspiracy theorist when she called the album CHEMTRAILS over the country club. Lol that won’t happen...Lana would just blame everyone else. When has she ever apologised and admitted wrong?

honestly yeah this is basically what it boils down to i'm not even sure why I'm surprised that she's behaving this way after question for the culture (especially after calling out FKA's pole dancing for literally no reason other than to be annoying) or her driving with her foot on the dash on a windy ass road. i can appreciate that she's *not conforming to industry standards* but it's a bit much honey, and at the end of the day it just looks like ignorant white teenage girl shit. this isn't really an artsy, empowering thing, she's putting people's lives in danger to promote a poetry book lol

The only good thing I can say is that I love her outfit and hair. She looks like a really beautiful idiot.

Honestly anyone who tries to defend this shit is simply delusional This is so irresponsible

this thread is an entire mess, how are ya'll going to discredit someone's knowledge on covid-19 because they are a nurse rather than a doctor? nurses are very important.

people are really acting as if we're harassing or "maliciously attacking" Lana when we're just calling her a dumbass karen for uh maliciously attacking the immunocompromised and the elderly ? sis doesn't even listen to her fans anymore and will probably face ZERO repercussions for literally creating a public health COVID cesspool in the middle of one of the most densely populated cities in the US. Her donating a bit of the profits from Violet to native american charities is cute until you realize that she's literally contributing to the public health crisis that's disproportionately affecting Native American communities and reservations and other people of color the most.

we can't really do anything about lana wearing a mask with holes, which is risking her health and other people's health, but we have every right to critize her for it, sorry, but that's just the way it is.

Lana: why do people call me Karen I’m DELICATE ?? also Lana: racially coded essays, essentially breaking the law for attention and causing a literal health department shut down, basically everything she’s done this past year I can’t wait for question for the culture 2.0 ? also you guys can be fans without kissing her ass. she is literally begging for it by now

this honestly really bothers me, they get the opportunity to meet lana del rey and have her signature in their book, but they just do it all for profit. i just think it's unfair, there's so many other fans who aren't able to attend these events, and they certainly won't be able to afford a book being sold for over 1k. but of course, it is their right to sell the book and that's their decision.

and not yall still trying to defend her with this silicone layer bs. she knew people came after her for wearing it last time, she would have said something then. also the magazine literally said WEAR A MASK, NOT THIS ONE because it's unprotective she's beyond ridiculous this year

she ain’t wearing some magical invisible silicone material mask: she’s irresponsible, wore a mesh mask and held an event which she knew would get crowded
