Yeah, I dunno. Lipfillers are a definite, but I don't feel like a change of hair color and some collagen was all it took. The change seems far greater to me. "*I'll keep dancing nerding on my own*

I'm sure it's been established, that they were part of the same scene. They performed at the same clubs around the same time. As for being friends: I think not.
Have you heard "So Legit" by Lana? It's dissing Gaga quite intensely... There was a facebook post of Lana saying that she's a hater (referencing Gaga) - and then there's something I don't know enough about - a possible exboyfriend having an argument with Lana over Gaga... They definitely seem to have been rivals, rather than friends

Where's this quote from? x

It's really interesting for me to read this. Not being from America, what you portray here really stands out as something very... foreign to me. In my country you're ultimately regarded as strange (and perverted! ha) if you don't have sex before marriage. Sex is seen as a very natural part of our lives, our physicality (which it is) that shouldn't be denied. So when Lana says she's slept with a lot of guys in the industry, I don't even raise an eyebrow. She probably says it tongue in cheek, even so - in some parts of the world she's not on the front lines of something big in terms of sexuality - just your regular gal. But I understand that it's different in the States and because of that I really agree with you - her voice is needed!
 
Just a footnote: to me Miley Cyrus stands for the total opposite of female sexual empowerment; what she does seems to be driven by her awareness of "a spectator", whereas Lana is doing what she wants for herself. It seems

OMFG amazing mindfuck right now. "Two tears in solidarity" anyone?? From the Y&B video? A teardrop tattoo can symbolize a life taken.
 
Looked teardrop tattoo up on wiki (yeah yeah, whatevs) and it said: "It is sometimes worn by the female companions of prisoners in solidarity with their loved ones."

“Live fast, die young and have a good-looking corpse!”
 
"The first quote has been slightly rearranged over the years. It comes from a 1949 movie called Knock on Any Door, starring Humphrey Bogart as a liberal-minded lawyer trying to save a young hoodlum accused of murder. The hoodlum, Pretty Boy Romano, was played by John Derek who was, indeed, one of the best- looking actors who ever stood before a camera. The exact phrase, as he said it in the movie, was: “I wanna live fast, die young and leave a beautiful corpse.”

Erik Satie: Gymnopedie no 3 at the end of the Carmen video

She was born at 9 am, she stated this in an interview (radio, I think.) She identifies as a gemini...

Something I feel is taboo on this forum is the subject of her (possible) plastic surgery. I'm really interested in picking her looks and image apart (to quote you @@toshi) - coming from a place of admiration and adoration, of course. I don't think it's extremely weird or wrong to be interested in what Lana has done to create herself/her image. She's one of the most beautiful human beings I ever saw and her looks do play an active part in the whole package that is her, so to speak... Her lyrics often describe her as pretty, beautiful etc - wouldn't fit at all if she wasn't. Many of her lyrics fit the idea of a beautiful woman. Imagine if Susan Boyle sang "I Fucked My Way up to the Top" ...or "Cola"?? Anyway, this is just to justify going superficial on her arse   And of course, quite a few aren't interested in this aspect of her, but I, for one, am - and I can't even count the many times I have googled "lana del rey plastic surgery/extensions" etc.
 
I just can't figure out what she did after getting the lip injections when she was still Lizzy. I really think she had more procedures done. She disappeared for (I'm not sure how long) - like a year? Came out on the other side and was LANA. But it wasn't just the lips that were different. She most likely had a nose job, but that was earlier? Hmmm.. Any other plastic surgery nerds out there?

"im your vulgar darling in the swimming pool" from moi je joue

Probably not. There's a 1933 song called Boulevard of Broken Dreams and a 1988 movie. The expression exists long before green day, although I can't find where it originated from right now (on mobile).
 
I also don't think queen of the night is a Whitney reference. Mozart had a character called the queen of the night in one opera, but I'm pretty sure she's not referring to that either. It's probably not a reference to anything. She calls herself queen of so many things. All she had to do is combine it with the euphemism woman of the night for prostitute.

Some photos:
 




 

Personally, I think the dress looked very flattering on her. I love it. And her hair, goodness her hair..   Simply stunning. 
I also cried when I saw that snapchat video, she's too cute.
 
 
ALSO:

Lana vs. Miss Monroe - dress is from the same designer, William Travilla.

I'm noooo expert in fashion and makeup and all that, but I'm not a big fan of her lips color ... I don't like the combo turquoise with that brown. The dress ... Well ... It's nice per se, I guess, kind of prom looking though imo. But she looks straight from an old Awards show ! And her hair is nice ! 

I don't really know where to post this...
I wonder what happened between Lana and Jaime King. They def had a falling out. Modern day proof: Jaime isn't following Lana on instagram anymore (GOSH I swear I do have a life.) It just seems odd. And now Jaime is besties with TS. I mean, gimme some truth

Oh no, don't get me wrong, it's so fucking clunky, I also felt it was "soaring higher from the fire," but I do hear an "n" somewhere before the "from."
 
I am so goddamn unsure, this is why I endorse lyric videos. Someone should spam Lana with "WHAT IS IT" tweets.

But 'soaring high and from the fire' is a terrible, clunky phrase in English (about on the level of 'ah he's in the sky with diamonds', which she also doesn't sing.)
 
ETA: Referring to both a Phoenix and an Iron is a pretty cool mixed metaphor, describing two different types of thing that come out of a fire, suggesting different aspects of her personality.

I agree about hearing 'iron from the fire' in terms of the metaphor - having many irons in the fire - her man is cheating on her with others, so she is rising up from the fire and no longer being one of his many irons in the fire. I definitely don't hear an 's' sound for soaring either?
