Slumdog

I find it hard to believe she's genuinely happy for them lol

But she always seemed open and mature in her relationships, maybe I'm just projecting because I probably couldn't.

I've always admired how she seems to genuinely enjoy her free time, alone or not. A lot of celebrities look stiff/posed/self conscious but she always seems relaxed.

(and I don't mind the weight gain but she could stop touching her face which was already perfect).

Where can I check if a post I made has been approved or not?

Lana looks really pretty here and I like that she hangs out with these girls, they seem like a positive influence to me.

SEXY TRACKS FOR LDR 6 , thank you 

Like the recent live version of pretty when you cry. I wish that was a hint of her intention of going in that direction.

I'm confused because in the video that was posted on her birthday her cheeks and cheekbones looked big and in these pictures they look way better, almost as if she didn't have fillers. She looks great.

He deactivated his account April 2018 I heard there was a rumor of claims of pedophilia against him, but who knows

I had no idea, thank you!

What happened to Bob Leone? Did he delete his instagram and if so, why?

Now that Dita released an album they could work together

Is it me or she seemed a little off last night? Like she wasn't having a good day or had a different energy. But maybe the event with the security affected my perception of the rest of the videos. I feel bad for them though, they're just doing their job trying to protect her (unless they were rude or something). But still, a nice gesture for the fans <3 

She's so cute. I remember when we would go weeks, months without even an update, a picture or knowing anything about her. 

I'd like to know what made her "click" that changed her mindset and message almost overnight. Doing charity openly, saying she doesn't drive fast, not singing Cola, stating she doesn't like her old tattoos, the lyrics to Get Free, Heroin, and so on. It's like she realized how influencial she really is now or something. Maybe the panic attacks and the fear of dying affected her deeply, I don't know. While I miss the unapologetic persona she used to convey, I prefer the person she has become, more humane and conscious.

I believe this song is about Hollywood, the entertainment industry, and the toxic environment that these people live in. The lyrics

Gone is the burden
Of the Crowley way of being

and

I never really noticed that I had to decide
To play someone's game or live my own life

are very telling.

Also, remember Prisoner?

I think I've been in Hollywood for too long cause I can feel my soul burning, feel it burning slow

I get so wrapped up in a world where nothing's as it seems and real life is stranger than my dreams

yeah but like .. why would u credit someone if u don't release it. lana was no one back then and she didn't make any money out of it, It's like soundcloud or youtube producers making covers or remixes

I agree. What I wanted to point out in my first post was that she is always brought to these controversies, unluckily for Lana this isn't the first time she is accused of unoriginality, when it's probably unintentional since she has no problem referencing her inspirations.

but wasn't this like.. actually sampled in the demo, it was literally them using the same audio file.

then they went all out to re record it completely and basically remake the instrumental themselves 

both versions weren't released tho bc they're all pre btd AAANd they were demos she can sample whatever she wants in her unreleased demos she just needs permission to release it.

Yes, but my point was that she was being "accused" at the time, too. And the band wasn't totally pleased by the lack of credits but maybe my memory fails me about that .

Edit:

De Kift

If you like the drums and bass of this song, please check the original version from our record released in 1989. The song is called "Blind" and the band's name "De Kift". We would have given permission, but she never asked...

What happened with Lolita?

Remember when the same thing happened with Video Games and Lolita and the song Blind by De Kift. I don't know if they sued her, though. Poor Lana, I don't think she wants to ruin her name purposely.

I remember a few years ago a band let a youtuber put their own music in her videos because they were friends but the record label (I think) tried to sue her anyway. So I don't know if you can blame this entirely on the band.

Do people think she was genuinely depressed during the UV era? or was she writing about a time in her life when she wasn't happy? I think she was fairly healthy during the release of UV. I think she's been pretty happy ever since 2012. I personally think UV was just her telling stories about how she used to be sad. What makes you think she was sad during the UV era?

 

the title track of UV definitely has a sad connotation--but I don't think she was depressed during the UV era. she created some of her best art during that era!

Rob said that the backlash that she received from her country really affected her

She looks so good facially (it seems like those weird fillers between her eyebrows are starting to wear off). And she seems happy to me, not as anxious as she used to be.

It's on the Daily Mail Snapchat. Mess

It's interesting because I had no idea who Harvey Weinstein was before but always thought he seemed very creepy in that top picture (but stopped myself thinking I was being judgemental).

Also, the most important news source in my country reported about Lana and this whole thing so I imagine this is known worldwide now.

He retweeted her a few times it seems? But it was probably random, him not realizing it was from the same account.

There's a very interesting comment on genius.com about a possible meaning:

“Jumping off from the walls, into the docks and shit”

The above are the correct lyrics for latter part of bridge, clarified by Apple Music. Below is my research in support of the correction.

Lana is referencing the 1969 Tate/Manson Murders:

“Topanga’s hot today, Manson’s in the air”, “Writin' in blood on my walls and shit”.

Lana is a fan of The Beach Boys, she references their 1964 hit “Don’t Worry Baby” at the end of “Love”.

Charles Manson (Cult Leader) befriended Dennis Wilson of The Beach Boys in the late 60s in hopes that Wilson would be able to help him secure a recording contract. For a time the Manson Family lived with Wilson in his mansion, there they took extensive advantage of Wilson’s famous generosity, threw chaotic-drug fuelled parties, ran up expensive bills and crashed one of his cars.

Wilson eventually had the
Family evicted from his home, and despite his best efforts wasn’t able to convince his brothers or music industry ties that Charles Manson was worthy of signing.

This infuriated Manson who dreamed of using rock-stardom as a means of sharing his twisted message of a looming apocalyptic race war, misogyny and violence decided Wilson would “have to pay”.

Though Manson never exerted his revenge on Wilson after the perceived betrayal, the episode haunted Wilson until the end of his life, in fact, he practically refused to speak about it. It is believed Wilson’s paranoia over Manson sending a cult member to kill him inflamed his alcoholism and drug use which marred him until the end of his life.

On December 28th 1983 Dennis Wilson died.

He jumped, drunkenly, from the dock into the waters of the MARINA DEL REY.

Don't know how reliable it could be because I don't know anything about Dennis Wilson.

Now we need to add Get Free to the list (it sounds like Creep by Radiohead).

Doesn't the intro of Heroin remind someone else of Blue Jeans? It does to me for some reason.
