  1. Yeah but the video was already in youtube. The voice had a face. I think Lizzy would the same had success in Europe south America and all, but in US I without the changes she wouldn't had achieved the mass hits. I can be wrong but is what I think. Without the changes in her face and style I mean
  2. Some will call lies others will say she contradicts herself when the subject is the confusion around her past. Whatever you callled something tells me Lana does it consciously. To me she is far away from being innocent on this Lana Del Rey tumblr, youtube interscope turmoil. Lana had 2 many bands, 2 many names and tried 2 hard to get "there"to be this lost soul damaged floating around (now) London town. She said it herself ïf you think I didn't plan to turn around this way..." I also think she took advvantage of the US backslash to put herself like an european type of singer and her managers are milking that all the way. If this is a critic? Not really I kind of like her more for that. I don't think is a smart move all the little lies (easy to see that are lies) she tells all the time like the creation of the Lana name or whatever but I really respect her perseverance. I find the Lana fenomenon fascinating not just because I really love Lana's muisc and videos but because of the reaction she inspires. To me part of the US critics trashing her is because she represents part of a reality that they don't wanna see. Lana was once Lizzy, Lizzy was once in a couple bands. Lizzy was once a blond girl playing guitar in gigs that have less people than a saturday party a throw with 20 minutes notice. Than Lizzy decides to become Lana. But changing the name was not really good enough the style was missing. The girl next door disapears and Lana Del Rey is born. Full make up, big hair beauty queen style combined with pumped up big lips. Looking back the music, the style of lyrics didn't change much. Not even the arrengements. What changed was the girl that owned the voice. What the critics couldn't understand is that the judgement was not only about Lana but about themselves since clearly Lizzy wasn't good enough even if the music is the same.
  3. Now that is a translation! Not that google mess I posted previously. Thank you for the translation Lolalitahey!

    Britney Spears

    Brtiney's music is like a guilty pleasure that I allow msyself to indulge in clubs and parties..iol...I just don't enjoy going to lipsing concerts .On the other hand I like Britney as person tho. She seems quite nice tbh. I also think she is a great dancer , dance performance speaking. I like womanizer, Till the World ends, piece of me, toxic. I think she is doing well as a judge, and her comments and herself are quite funny. I am waiting for Mariah and Minaj. Now that is going to be a nice mess to watch.
  5. I do creaitve writing also. Cool that you do 2! I get what you say about being better 2 talk to someone who enjoys your work and sometimes some critics can be kind of mean and out of place. But Lana sometimes sounds like a cry baby or someone incredible need or a little arrogant. I think she takes her songs to seriously like they are a work of her own time and people should see it. I love her videos and songs but sometimes she bugs me (not the music but her "persona"in interviews or how she presents herself) other times I like what she says. But all that critic that happened in US is in part Lana's thought because she said that she "felt pretty and thought she sounded good"when questioned about SNL. She didn't even joked about it saying "ok that wasn't my best but I was nervous and all". Saying she liked her own performance and that she looked pretty was like giving to the journalists that trashed her a machine gun loaded and with plenty of ammunition to just trash her even more. She never accepts any critic and always tries to get away on top. That bugs me 2. Maybe she was in a very dificult moment when all that happened back in january, who knows? And those critics got her hard. But they didn't trash her that much at least not character wise I think. They are much harder with Gaga and Rihanna. Those ones are trashed on their character wich I think is way worse. I don't even like Gaga or Rihanna but I see they get trashed a lot. I think US critics were so out of place and over the top with the authenticity issue hat she should just have laugh about it and get over with.
  6. Asking the journalist before the interview even starts if he likes her songs comes out a little arrogant. Would she give a different interview or answers if he said "no"?? Is not the first time she asks journalists if they like her music. Does everyone has to like her? Isn't one of the primary purposes of art, music, cinema to inspire a discussion, generate feelings and sensantions? Some like others don't. Better be dislked than get a numb reaction. Numb is an artist tomb
  7. I found one translated interview. The person says she/he used google translator so probably is not really a good translation. The link to the site is: http://fotpforums.com/showthread.php?48299-New-Interview-KulturSPIEGEL Ps: how do I create a spoiler?? The interview: Heaven is a great word The pop superstar Lana Del Rey, 26, about jealousy, the passion of the social workers and the happiness that is in the Christmas carol "I just need somewhere Shut up writing ', and millions of people find it great. This gives me the creeps." Lana Del Rey: I would like to ask you something in advance: Do you like my music really? Cultural mirrors: Yes. Why you ask? Oh, thank you, thank you, that's surprising. Most journalists hate my songs. Believe me, I speak from experience because I have been this year abused extensively for my work. Her album "Born to Die" was still one of the bestsellers of the year. Do you have any idea why you polarize it? Me is a mystery. Perhaps it is so that a blue moon someone shows up in pop, with many can not do anything, and that was probably last me. This works like "Whispers": Some writers spread first a small, strange, angry story about yourself, which is then carried on and resistant to vice and wickedness increases until it has sometime to do with you any more. They have been heavily criticized as a pretty shrewd puppet music manager. Were this to happen to a man? On the supposed misogyny in the music industry, I was often asked, but that is not in my case. I believe that this is something personal. My songs that I write are actually themselves, very intimate, and because many people seem dubious such feelings, they conclude that I must be a puppet. But it illustrates the truth only their helplessness. Is the melancholy music of your artful pose or a case for the therapist? Neither. In me has always been a melancholy, call it nostalgia. I was four or five when I was on the front steps of the house before my parents sat me and longed for a place that was somewhere else. Ask my mother, if you do not believe me. This feeling with me for a lifetime. But I do not suffer. I would rather say that I learned quite well, I get along with my sadness. But there were also times when it came to me very badly. These dark years I have overcome to happiness. The memory of it inspired me today to my songs. They spoke in an interview time of death as "a dark paradise." Do you really serious? Yes, death and paradise for me are linked. I expect after my death, something that is very calm and relaxed. This can already be described as paradise. I prefer the term "paradise". He is so charged with meaning. , I even tattooed on my hand. "Heaven" is such a great word, or "exotic". But one has a word tattooed on the same hand, because it sounds nice? Well sure! I love expressive words. On my arm I have tattooed the names of my favorite writers Whitman and Nabokov. Whenever I look at it, I am reminded that life can be great. What distinguishes Elizabeth Woolridge Grant, what's your name real name, by Lana Del Rey, your artist identity? Nothing. We are one. I found just that this name fits better with my music. It is exotic and mysterious. But when I spend time with friends, I do not lead me on, unlike in the hotel suite, where I chat with you as Lana Del Rey. I do not play theater, the name Lana Del Rey matches just rather my self as an artist. That it was a marketing coup clever record company people, some say, is another one of those bullshit. Do you underestimate yourself? Why should I? Just because some American journalists can not stand me? My album is a multi-million-seller. I've even won several awards. Only in my own country, the United States, the inspiration of all my songs, you know, unfortunately, not to deal with me. That's why I'm there and moved away and now live in London. What would you have done if you had had no success as Lana Del Rey? Was there a plan B? Music was my plan as a hobby. I've worked in New York for many years as a social worker. Since I was 18 my Years working in homeless shelters and. Rehabilitation centers for alcoholics and drug addicts Music has long been the luxury then. I'm super in it, people in need their Social Security numbers and ID cards recover. That is my true passion. Hard to believe. Just ask my parents and my siblings. That will confirm everything. When I came to New York, I met a couple at the beginning to know people who were socially. Yes I came to New York to learn about cool musicians and writers. The poets dreamed of me, in the breathless night banging a sensational novel in the typewriter, I've never found. I have never ever met a writer in New York. The only passionate people I met in New York, were social workers. And since I got stuck, worked during the day and at night alone made music with my guitar. And how you arrived at your record deal? Since I joined a songwriter-amateur competition. I did not win. But one of the jurors had a small label, and offered me a contract and a producer. Then I got myself to the stage name Lizzy Grant and took seven months in the evening on an album, which was then placed for two years to stockpile in the hope that a large company would take over the board. But nothing came. The songs were very dark, not suitable for a large audience. In addition, the to and fro of the music manager was annoying: people who tell you only that you're awesome find, a week later that you still something missing. I had already resigned themselves to make music. At least just for me. I produced it with friends video clips that I just presented itself online. Just as "Video Games", who then brought me still a record deal. Is it true that you grew up without a TV? Although there was a TV in the living room of my parents' house, but it was not connected to the cable network, but only served as a monitor for video movies. In the rooms of my father and mother were regularly connected televisions, where as a child I was allowed to watch cartoons. But rarely. My parents felt that urge me on television that impress me too much. They were probably right. When I was a kid saw something interesting on TV, I chattered it for days like a parrot what scared my parents so that they the family television network took from when I was 7. It was only at 14 I was allowed to watch TV regularly. I then sat around the clock before MTV and inhaled everything flickered there. The clip of her song "Video Games" has now been clicked on YouTube nearly 50 million times. Where would you be without the Internet? No idea, I've wondered about. The Internet is an abstract thing, which I probably still not properly understood. Who are all the people who are there to watch my clips? I know neither they nor their faces that my success can appear quite surreal. Read the comments on YouTube? Sometimes. One has to be careful, otherwise you by turns. Sometimes I react to something. Add a comment, as usual, under my real name. This then ensures reliable for powerful turmoil in the global network. I just need somewhere to write "shut up", and more than a million people find the great. That gives me the creeps. The Internet is towed particularly nasty about you. You are now inured? No, and I will also never armored Sun Of course I know that one such vulgarities should never take it personally. But sometimes it takes some time to be aware of this fact again. You still succumb to the temptation to google your name? Previously, before I knew I did often. Now seldom. About a year ago so no one has even written about me, as the Googling was relaxed. Today, it makes me more afraid. The net is full of very aggressive people. I do not know how in those days, my new album "Paradise" is panned in the net. But in a few weeks then I will probably but the curiosity about coming. Make use of social networks? As for Twitter and Facebook, I have retired long privately. I use the network only as a promotional tool. When a new record comes, I upload some pictures. No longer. I am personally more interested in other aspects of the Internet, for example, I plan just to set up a small foundation. For such work, the Internet is great. We want to encourage thinkers of up to $ 200,000 - people who are concerned about the sustainability of this planet deserves or improve the usefulness of social networks. Where does your social engagement? My parents raised me in the knowledge that you have to get involved in the community and share with others. Tomorrow I fly to New York and will be there to help out on Thanksgiving with "Meals on Wheels". I need this for my equilibrium, because in the last ten months it often felt on as if this is not my life would be. With the people that made up my life until then, I'm talking about any more. They also distribute food to the needy on Christmas Eve? No, because my siblings and I will be with my grandparents in Lake Placid. I promised my mother some time ago that we will see Christmas forever. That is also a powerful time in the days between Christmas and New Year draws each balance sheet where they stand in life so and go as it should. Then go to church? Of course, I am Catholic. I like singing in the church, because I love hymns, carols. "Silent Night" is especially great. Have you believed as a child in Santa Claus? Oh yes! I was convinced of its existence. My mother always wrote little messages to us, they were apparently from Santa. Just like "Thanks for the cookies. I hope you like my gifts. Greetings, W." Did you feel cheated when you learned the truth? I was twelve years old and shocked and asked my father to tell me the truth, "Dad, there is a Santa Claus?" He shook his head to enter, and I was stunned - "What?" I then wanted to know what the whole circus with the tales should be good. But today it is also clear to me how important a good show is. It is exhausting to be the main character of Lana Del Rey-show? That depends where. In France, I care for crowds, in the United States rarely someone recognizes me. I love to sit in coffee shops and read the paper. That's in New York and still no problem. Well, sometimes someone comes along and says, "Excuse me, you look just like Lana Del Rey." And I answer, "Thank you, that's very kind of you." And I am pleased. Lana Del Rey: "Born to Die", was just published the "Paradise Edition" with eight new songs (Universal). Tour from 6 April 2013. INTERVIEW: CHRISTOPH Dallach edit: I forgot to say that the translation comes out hilarious
  8. You touched a very interesting point that always cross my mind. She mentions her "charity" work every given opportunity. She never mentions the institute name or how someone can help she just says she does that a lot. I find interesting that because I feel sometimes that is a marketing tool and bugs me. Sometimes I think she doesn't really think before saying things and just says watever is on her mind. I don't even like the word charity I think is an arrogant word. I think this way: do whatever you can for who you can when you can. What I understand from what she says this charity in brooklin she mentions all the time was the one that "clear"her up. So maybe she doesn't mention the name so people don't start digging her past.
  9. OMG! Picture number 3 is almostttttttt a smile! Progress! PS: she looks so "mature"in this shoot. Very pretty (well she is very pretty so...) and classy but may I dare 2 say safe and boring? Just love Lana's eyes they are so beautiful
  10. Sarcasm usually involves humor and most times a twisted and interesting point of view at a fact, a person a situation. Most times people who are sarcastic like to be the first to laugh at themselves so usually they joke a lot about themselves. A sarcastic mind would know that. Well your sarcasm got in and out of the room unnoticed. Like Lindsay in future Emmy Awards indications.
  11. people can just agree in disagree is only natural. What would happen to yellow if everyone loved blue?
  12. Gonna vote for Adeleeee!! Ha!! She is gorgeous in her own super cool way. Love Marina and Lana forever but would be amazing if Adele won this. Actually Adele bRA is even making a campaing for her. A slap in the face when the over size Brit girl with cockney accent gets it all.
  13. I like Britney (not her music) and she truly has problems so I don't feel comfortable making fun of her. But Lindsay...I think you were very sweet, at least, when you said she is aging terribly. I think is amusing how Lindsay's body ,for some misterious reason, ages genetically speaking in dog years
  14. Is log off the online version of shut up?
  15. From all Lana's crazy crowd moments this is my favorite. Literally in the middle of the crowd.
  16. I wonder what happens to this lady on your signature if she feels a little itching on her forehead and has to give herself a little scratch with those nails, Maxi Bags Maxi Nails?
  17. Don't forget the Oscar for "Ï know who Killed Me". Or the fact that she is 26 and behaves like a slow 6 year old. I feel sorry for Lindsay Lohan and wish her the best. But what annoys me the most is not that Lindsay is a shizz actress is the fact that she is also a shizzz person. People who think they are better thn others annoy me specially when they are bloody morons. Her life today is a parody of what might have been if she wasn't such a bitch
  18. Don't be mad at me I am just Liz messenger
  19. Hi Chuck. Apparently you like your liquor.
  20. I am Liz Taylor spirit and I am pissed with Lindsay Lohan's performance in Liz & Dick. That bitch...ruined me and I am already dead
  21. I hope Lana never joins Gaga's excuse for a cult in music form. If Lana joins Gaga's cult I will throw my beautiful BTD delux box out of my F window. Born to Die or Born to Fly.
  22. In prison for assault? Abortion? Having a crush on her brother? Almost molested by a priest? Lana and her siblings were all arrested and have been in jail?? Barry hit her? God Lanaexposed2 makes Lana's life a book ready and almost begging to be wrote. Go lana!! Gonna sell more than 50 shades Iol...hahahaha... Lanaexposed2 "leaks"about Lana's personal life makes "Chistiane F" look like a kids book. Go LanaExposed2!! Forgot go gog dancing and prstitution....
  23. I think Lanaexposed2 is not really good at math. I read in a article that Rob Grant got payed 60.000 US dollars for a domain and he thought that was a really good deal. for certain is a good amount but hardly a great deal. He has several domains and they are all incorporated in his company. You pay a good amount of money to be registred in such domains (real state mostly) which can make old Rob Grant a pretty wealthy guy but hardly a 100 million type of wealth. For certain not wealthy enough to buy Lizzy grant a clean record from the police, stop the spreading of a sex tape, buying his son a clean record and also buying Lana a career. Let's do the math...just doesn't ads up. The sex tape is the worst...if it was out there would have been sold for sure. Porn makes lots of millions....hello one night in Paris....and that was Parasite who at the time no one cared about.
