I'm sorry, but isn't this a discussion forum? Where we discuss things about Lana, including how she looks? Part of being in the public eye is maintaining an image, so while Lana has the right to wear whatever she wants, do her makeup however she pleases, and keep her body in shape or not, people are going to be looking at her appearance and forming opinions. While I do think some people push it a little far, we're all allowed to have an opinion about Lana that does not involve her being a "perfect flawless angel queen". I think it's wrong for you to say that simply stating that Lana looks a little older is "shit" just because it's not praising her. Fun fact: humans' appearances change as they get older. Lana's human. She qualifies. Being a fan does not mean that every single thing that you say about Lana has to be positive.

The bottom line is this- we can talk about her looks if we want. There's no need to argue over it. Don't like criticizing? Don't participate. It makes no difference whether she's a model and/or a musician, she's in the public eye therefore her image is going to get talked about. Get over it!

Cola: "My pussy tastes like Pepsi cola"

Serial Killer: "You can see me drinking cherry Coke"

Diet Mountain Dew: "Diet Mountain Dew, baby, New York City"

[i know there's more, but I can't think of them right now]

I'd like something like this, but with a better pic.
 

 
Plot twist: GodBlessMe is really Lana trying to get cover ideas

Maybe it's just because her dress looks like my grandma's nightgown, but she kind of looks like she's aging a tiny, tiny bit. It's a natural thing, she's still so beautiful. So happy she lost those tacky extensions! As always, I'm still wishing she would dye her hair lighter, I think it would do her so much justice, make her look younger, happier :-)

Well we can't really discuss anything besides looks since we only have pictures.

EP should be called "dystopia"

I think it's mostly the make-up, sometimes when she's wearing that brown lipstick and weird eye make-up she can look a lot older but when she's more natural she'll look a lot younger. People also look better and younger when they're happy and she looks pretty sad in those pictures imo.
 
These were taken the same day and I think she looks years older in the second one:

I can't help but disagree. She has a really interesting timbre in her upper register and lower register. It's the mix of both that's so alluring to me.

Party Girl is also registered and it is a laptop recording and that means it could be on UV? 

I like how you cut off your missing star @ that is a very me moment

Oh no! We have another asshat member who thinks they know better than the thousand of us already here! I have a name for this phenomena. It's called the 'Basic Bitch' syndrome:
 

Your condescending, egotistical tone is not appreciated on this forum. It makes you look like an ill mannered, un-educated idiot. Did somebody shit in your chest cavity today? Were you recently part of a human centipede or do you actually talk shit all the time? Do you talk this way to your friends (but of course, I doubt you have any by the way you present yourself).
 
You can act as high and mighty all you want but it's not gonna make the people around you love you any more than they already hate you (including everybody on this forum). I have some news to break to you buddy, you are not smart and you are most certainly not polite. You think you're the shit but in reality, you are not. You are a rude pretentious asshole arguing on a forum. I'm comfortable telling you this, not only because I started this topic 3 months and 73 pages ago, but because statistically I am better than you and I am putting you in your place. Here's some visual proof.
 

 

 
Everybody fucking knows that Lana did not record an album in one day. She started working way before Tropico was announced. That's why we know about Trans Am.   Black Beauty is from early 2013 so she has obviously been working on Ultraviolence for over a year and we all fucking know it. We don't need your simple minded ass telling us shit we already know!
 
"And you think an artist as big as Lana is going to make an entire album of her and ONE producer." Of course not, you fucking dimwitted shit brained idiot! We already know the confirmed producers. I've listed them in the OP. I've even talked to Dan Heath myself. You're not dropping any groundbreaking news here bud.   All artists work differently. Lana worked solely with David Kahne for AKA and she can do it again if she damn well chooses, but we know that's not the case.
 
"When I say record, I don't mean just RECORD vocals." Well surprisingly, you will discover that the world does not revolve around you and that the word 'record' has many several meanings. Many people can interpret this as many different things. "I mean the songwriting, production, etc." Oh, so then you didn't mean 'recording' then? Make up your mind   . There are many stages to creating an album and to call it all 'recording' would be misuse of that verb wouldn't it?   When someone is 'recording' an album, they are most likely talking about vocals, my friend.
 
"Record in a day. Record what? fart sounds?" I don't think you understand the concept of time. Let's use mathematics! An album is 45 minutes long and there are 24 hours in a day. How many times does 0.75 divide into 24? Of course you don't know because you were obviously educated in a barn, as I am guessing by your lack of manners. An artist, realistically can record an album in one day if they wanted to. We are not saying that Lana did, we are just talking about the concept of 'recording an album in a day' in general. When I told you that Paradise was recorded in one take, you replied: 'I can't even comprehend your post!" Well that's not surprising, but I will extend my knowledge to the mentally deficient.
 
Time-wise, Lana's vocals theoretically could have all been recorded on the same day (wow, that's crazy!) She entered the studio, sang all of her songs over some demo instrumentals and left the building! This theoretically could have happened! "Are you implying when Lana "Record" an album she simply goes in the studio and sing/record vocals and that's it." Well sir, if you managed to read my comment, I said: "if the producers made the instrumentals beforehand, an album can easily be made in a couple of days." Here, I was talking about an album in general and not Paradise.
 
Lana does not need to stand behind Dan Heath with a whip shouting at him while he produces the strings to Bel Air now does she? She can easily drop in and out of recording sessions. She recorded Young & Beautiful when Baz Luhrmann was in a different country to her! Wow, technology! Paradise is pretty short. Even if each song took a whole day, it still could (hint: could) have been completed in one and a half weeks! (Crazy! I know you don't understand the concept of time so I will stop talking about this in fear of overloading your brain.)
 
"I know that Paradise vocals were recorded in one take because you can hear the differences in verse 1 and verse 2." I would rather pour gasoline all over myself and jump through a flaming hoop than read one of your sloppy replies.   Of course there are differences in verse 1 and verse 2. That's because they are verses. Verses in songs are usually the same melodically but with different lyrics! If you listen closely, you might be able to hear that they are different! Otherwise, in the case that you meant 'chorus', I have to let you know that recording a chorus twice will only literally extend recording time by 30 seconds every time it's sang. 30 seconds does not make much of a difference on the overall recording time.
 
"I mean i'm not an artist." I am glad that you are self aware.   Children are not usually aware of their own bodies until around 9 months. I'm happy that you have grown to understand what you are and what you are not. Here's something else in which you are not: an expert. Nobody is of course insinuating she scrapped everything and started work with Dan Auerbach in the past few days. Nobody is that fucking crazy to believe that (though, you are pretty fucking crazy for believing that we believe it.) Like I said before, we know long she worked on it. Over a year. Why would she announce the album in December at the Tropico premiere if she started working on it in mid-February with Dan Auerbach? Take a chill pill and don't taking everything so literally. Auerbach most likely placed the finishing touches on each song of the album (which is why she's comfortable presenting it as his as well as hers, since he probably tinkered with the songs last.) This was just a way to announce that a new producer was being introduced to Lana's fold.
 
"I need a break and stop coming here for a while again because I can't take it." I think you do too! Maybe one of our admins can help you take an extra extra long break! Why not go for a permanent break under the banhammer?   I'm sure one of our admins will kindly offer it to you. "Look at me I'm recording my voice using my iPhone. I just made my very own album." Are you insinuating that Sirens is a bad album? This is exactly what Lana did in her early career (well maybe not an iPhone). Studio quality isn't everything. I wouldn't care if Lana recorded Ultraviolence using her asshole, it'll still be a work of art and your condescending high-tech talk is killing my brain cells. What's wrong with using an iPhone? If Lana didn't have her iPhone we wouldn't have that beautiful video for Summer Wine you ungrateful piece of filth.   
 
Lola: "Why are you getting so riled up, Ultra-Violence? You have no idea how Lana has worked on past albums or on this one so calm down and stop acting like you know everything." Lola knows all. You should listen to Lola. Statistically she is also better than you in every single possible way so don't you even dare sass her or else I'm sure she will have no hesitation in smacking you up.   You need to listen to her. Take some Ambien and calm the fuck down.
 
Have you released an album on a major record label? No. I'm not Lola and I definitely have no hesitation in telling you to shut the fuck up. You know the same amount as anybody on the internet. I.E you are not a special snowflake in any way so quit acting like one. You talk more shit than an Azealia Banks in one of her rap songs and you're just generally just exhausting to listen to. We're exhausted feeling sorry for you so you can do yourself a favour and stop talking before I ram you off your high horse into a pile of shit that you spilled from your own mouth. The prestigious ChairCola award for most time-wasting and tiring posts goes to you my friend. Goodbye.
 

 

I'm really pissed that some fans don't want Lana to get famous because they feel it's like their "little secret" and it makes them sad that she gets famous. BITCH, why are you here? I want Lana to have fame and not keep her as a secret, wtf? Ultraviolence better do well on her career. 

LOL oh no to the facebook reference.

I was actually born in the same hospital on the same day as Lana We mingled in the NICU! I remember..even as a baby, she had a very melodic cry. So I guess you could say I've been a fan of her since day 1 !!! 

nice idea in theory but tbh i feel like it has the potential to create elitism between some older and newer fans.

Why are you getting so riled up, @@Ultra-Violence? You have no idea how Lana has worked on past albums or on this one so calm down and stop acting like you know everything.
