Divisive Princess

I don't know why it's becoming "worrisome" that Lana appears to have a multi-dimensional personality. While I love when Lana's humble and sweet, interviews like this are delicious to the brain because it's fresh. It's human. It's what a majority of the media asked for when they said she was just an emotionless doll.

I don't see much of a different Lana, I've read a few similar interviews from a few months back, so I'm not sure what is really the problem with some of her responses. I laughed with her, I took humor out of a lot of her cynical responses. I don't know, I read this a lot differently than it seems others have. Everything just seemed very casual and facetiously "uppity" to me, while also keeping the "I don't give a fuck" rather real and clear.

That's all I see here, just someone with substance whose feelings are raw and uninhibited. Which is as they should be. I don't think it's her growing an ego, I think it's just her getting her backbone back and being able to articulate her feelings fearlessly without feeling like she owes the world someone sweet and lily-livered. Sorry, I'll take a Lana who can be humble some times while giving the critics a clear middle finger while she spills salt in their wounds with a smug smirk on the occasion. She may be talking about how it's affected her, but if you look at where she is now compared to what a lot of articles and reviews had to say about her, all of it sounds very "Look who's laughing now?"

Even when she says that she is disconnected from other artists. I don't think there's anything uppity or egotistical about that. So many artists have had the same answer, she's no exception. You do get to that point as an artist that you start feeling like you identify more with yourself and your experiences than you do the experiences of other artists and the work they did based on those experiences. She's growing self-sufficient as an artist. And she sees that other artists just aren't doing the same thing.

I don't know, I didn't grab anything worth breaking a sweat over. She's complex and sometimes her feelings are conflicting, that says a lot more than most artists and human beings. She has substance, it just isn't always the sweet, soft-spoken kind. And I like it that way. She's fallen in shit and walked out in gold so many times, sometimes modesty just isn't warranted. It especially isn't warranted when you've taken every article and review about you to the chin so many times. Lana should be entitled to saying "Fuck them, I know what I do and I do it great." There isn't enough of that. Right away so many people chalk it up to having an inflated ego.

It can never be just being secure in your craft, loving what you do and knowing that you do it well; I mean, who does that? You've got to be an idiot if you don't stay on the ground long enough to let everyone else throw a few extra kicks on you before sticking their thumb in the air like they're Caesar, like their opinion of your talent is all that can validate your existence or worth as an artist. (CUE THE EYEROLL)
 
... Get real. Every time an artist finally starts being more self-assertive and fending for themselves and all the time they invested into their work, right away no one wants it anymore. I'm sick of insecure artists.

And this isn't to anyone here, this is just a random rant, I'm just growing as tired of the "Where's Lana gone?" kind of responses as I've gotten of what most of the general public and the media in America has had to say about her like as if they have not let a single talented soul slip through their fingers in the past decade. Lana hasn't gone anywhere, she's just not cherry-picking what thoughts she wants to showcase for her interviews. And I fucking praise that.

 

Guys, I think that you're overreacting.

u can get the capitol records shirt lizzy wore during a performance here: http://www.flyclothing.com/Capitol-Records-T-Shirt.html

I don't really pay attention to Lana haters. I like her and that's all that matters to me. But in the second video, the guy didn't really bother me at all. He was trying to be entertaining with his opinion, but in the first video, the people really bothered me. They made themselves look like idiots. 

These are really good!

I find him really attractive and that's not even biased. He could get it

Can you please, please, PLEASE make an inside booklet for AKA that has photos and lyrics in it? I would love you so much. I may even pay you in Trident layers.

Does anyone else get the sense that Young & Beautiful is about Barrie? For me, the telling line was 'The way you play for me at your show' which I know could also be about Jimmy, but the song just really screams Barrie to me.

I actually like this song... It's not perfect obviously but I loved the unfiltered-ness of it and I think it would sound AMAZING as a studio version. I hope we get a studio version

I don't even drink and I really want to make these.

can you give me a link

Omg

You can tell by the swagger and the lips.
I think that she should. They look really good on her and like someone else said, they're iconic. They're her 'thing'. But also at the same time, I kinda feel like that era of Lana is over, but no matter what she decides to do, I'd still bang her.

All I want to know is where can we hear the jazz band version of the song that they played in the movie?!
