  1. The song is I Want to Sing by Regina Spektor which she did brief acapellas of at a few of her shows in 2014, I’m not sure if we’ve ever had any sort of evidence to suggest she ever professionally recorded this song though x
  2. Reading through this thread has put the biggest smile on my face.. so wholesome This is why I love the annual Lipsters so much - it’s so special to have all of us come together to support one another! Luv seeing all of the endorsements, campaign posters, and just general love for our members in here. We’ve also received some people’s nominations already, so for those who have submitted, please don’t forget to comment here or DM @admin confirming you submitted your ballot so it can be verified! & again no rush on submitting if you haven’t decided all that you want to nominate, there’s still 2 weeks for you to take time to consider! Sending you all lots of love as always
  3. Omg Lana singing RBFY is definitely Iconic Moment OTY worthy… my jaw literally droppppppped when I realised what she was singing like whaaaat x
  4. I love when you guys make lil campaign posters my favourite time of year truly keep ‘em coming!! x
  5. Yes, feel free to nominate yourself on the ballot and promote a campaign so others know to nominate you too! & of course, feel free to campaign for any other members or moments that you'd like to see take home some awards! x

  7. Tagging our resident Florence stan for this one @Rorman Nockwell - it appears the wedding venue is the same location where Florence + The Machine shot the How Big How Blue How Beautiful video! x
  8. May I be among the first few to kick of the self-campaigning, as just because I’m the host doesn’t mean I can’t campaign for myself too! Also, with every category I’m self-campaigning for, I’m also going to give an endorsement for who else I’d like to see nominated in the category! Can’t be completely selfish here xx Elle - for your consideration… Best Profile Picture This was a new award we introduced last year that I won by having my PFP set to a selfie of Lana and me together at the mall last year, and I’m back to fight for round 2 with my new profile picture I set back in May after partying with Lana at V12! & hey, if you don't like me in it, at least cast a vote for Lana's sake as she mogged me anyway xx My endorsement: Given that @lmdr has been teasing some stunning outtakes through his PFPs recently, I think it’s only proper that he is also nominated in this category. Best Signature This award actually reminded me to update my signature a couple of days ago, as it contains a photograph I have taken at every Lana show I’ve attended over the past decade! I think it’s pretty cute x My endorsement: Honestly, I can’t recommend anyone else for this category since I have signatures turned off I’m sorry, I just can’t deal with the multiple-gif ones some of you have! Nicest Member I always try to sprinkle sunshine whenever I go, and even when I have to lay down the law with a mod queue or warning point, I always do it with lots of love My endorsement: @Embach! Truly one of the sweetest members we have ever had on the site, and her posts and interactions with others always make me smile. Veteran Member I have truly put my life on the line for this country website, dueling through many battles over being a member for the past 11 1/2 years & owner for the past 8! It’s hard to believe I’m nearing a decade of ownership! My endorsement: @Veinsineon will be passing the decade-versary mark on LanaBoards next year, and is as active as ever which I love to see. @Dark Angel is also now finally eligible for this award, and is another staple LanaBoards member who has continued to be active through the years! Biggest Stan If there is one award that I truly care about winning more than anything else, it’s this one. Not only am I the gracious owner of the largest Lana Del Rey fan site who has now attended 19 shows with my big 20 already planned for next year in Ireland, but I have arguably one of the largest Lana collections that includes nearly 200 magazines, over 100 clothing items as seen on LDR, and hundreds of other merch items! Here's some photos and detailed list of my collection that I took in 2020, and if you can even imagine it, it's even larger now.. maybe winning this award will give you all a little 5-year update after the release of The Right Person Will Stay, as I’m sure my collection will be growing even more following its merch and media drop x My endorsement: @admin Sorry, but I must win this award!! Peace Keeper Again, I know it’s not fun when I have to lay down the law sometimes, but without my efforts this place would honestly be a hell hole, you have to admit it. My endorsement: Any and all of my moderators!! (@That Venice Bitch @NikoGo @ultrabanisters @fishtails) I am endlessly grateful for all of the hard work that they do helping me keep this place under control as I definitely could not handle this all on my own. It’s never lost on me how important they are to have on my team. Be My Daddy - for Hottest Member I've graciously won this award three years in a row after a long saga of runner-up for several years, so I'm back to try to take home the title again! In case you need a refresher of my beautiful face, here's my best shot from this year: My endorsement: @Mer and I have been facing off in this category for the past few years, and I’m ready to face off again… and honestly, he’s someone I couldn’t even complain about losing to because his face card NEVERRR declines. Iconic Moment of the Year Me partying with Lana at a club in Atlanta on a random Wednesday night. I’m sorry, but this is the most iconic thing to have ever happen ever, at least in my book. From sobbing on my sofa at 9pm to then dancing with my favourite artist to her own songs just two hours later?? This still feels like an unrealistic dream like howwwwww did this happen… it needs to be honoured xx My endorsement: Lana bringing out Billie Eilish as a special guest during her Coachella W1 performance. This was another surreal moment - watching both artists sing each other’s debut song that led them to be where they are today brought tears to my eyes. I’ve personally been a fan of both since the start of their careers, and if you told me even 5 years ago that this was going to happen, I wouldn’t have believed you. Also, Lana & Charli finally meeting and being photographed together at the Variety Hitmakers awards - truly a moment in LanaBoards history. Lipster of the Year All I'm going to say is that this place wouldn't be here without me... My endorsement: @Embach, once again! Truly an icon on this site! Though this place wouldn’t be here without me, it wouldn’t be the same without her xx
  9. Welcome to the 2024 Lipsters Awards! It's that time of year again! Our annual Lipsters Awards is our website's own awards ceremony where we all come together to honour all the members, music, moments, memories, and messiness that make our community what it is. I am pleased to announce that nominations are NOW OPEN from today until January 1st at 12am ET. We will then move on to our voting period, and the official awards ceremony will take place on Saturday, January 18th - so clear your calendars for the festivities! Below, you will see a list of this year's 39 categories (5 new categories are being introduced this year!) and a brief description of what each award entails. For this nomination period, please visit the link below and nominate up to 5 entries per category that you wish to see win an award. The top 5 nominees in each category will advance to the voting round where we will then vote for our winners. Try to think of a number and variety of options! (Note: Please be sure to separate each nomination in the category by hitting the RETURN key in the form - this is preferred rather than using a comma to separate. Once you submit your nominations, please comment that you have done so or DM @admin as only one nomination ticket is permitted per member, and this ensures that nominations are submitted fairly.) If you can't think of enough nominations, please try your best and submit all that you can! You all have a little over two weeks to come up with your nominations, so please feel free to take your time to consider who/what you would like to nominate. I have not made it mandatory for every field to be completed, and although it is highly encouraged that you try to submit multiple nominations for each category, I have done this so all feel comfortable submitting nominations even if you aren't familiar enough with our member base to nominate for every category. Also, for those who wish to be nominated, please feel free to begin your campaigns below, or campaign for other members you think deserve some awards! I look forward to hosting this year's annual ceremony with you all again! The annual Lipsters Awards are always my among my favourite days we have on here, and I anticipate them each year. I love how we can all come together to have our own special day all about us. It's the perfect way to begin our year as we pay tribute to the last. Wishing everyone lots of love and luck! x SUBMIT YOUR NOMINATIONS HERE Even without our notorious “Time Online” tracker that is now just a burning memory, at this point I’m sure we all can recognise who our most repeat visitors are! The Most Active award will be bestowed upon the member that frequently blesses us with their posts. Also thanks for boosting our AdSense revenue - your interest really made stacks out of it for me (jk I wish) xx Sometimes a thought isn’t worth a thread post, and that’s okay! The recipient of the Status Updater award is the one who makes the best use out of our Status Update feature to let us know their thoughts for the day, their favourite new tunes, their drunken rambles, and the like. (& with the abundance of new random threads still constantly being created, I greatly thank the ones who utilise this feature instead when appropriate.) Whether it be a Lana reference or pun, an iconic song title, or just a purely imaginative name, we all have that one member whose name makes us smile, and the Best Username award is for that special someone. For the Worst Username award... well... we will just assume your first option was already taken. Members are allowed to creatively express themselves through their profile picture, and the Best Profile Picture award honours our favourites. Whether it be a beautiful photograph of Lana, an image of their lovely self, another iconic artist, a stunning artwork, or just an aesthetically pleasing image, let's show some love to the little square images we all associate our members with. With the best must come with the worst. To oppose the previous award, our new Worst Profile Picture award honours the profile images that give us all a little jumpscare when we see them. Perhaps it's time for a change. This is the first of the five new awards we've added this year! A member's signature gives a deeper insight into who they are. Whether it be their favourite quote or lyric, carefully selected imagery to match their profile picture, a graphic they designed themselves, or just something they feel truly defines them, the Best Signature award will honour whose signature you admire seeing after every post they make. Even I myself can't deny that I have at times turned off viewing signatures because some members' signature are just way too much to tolerate. Whether it be a catastrophe of multiple gifs that slows down page loading, a certain artist you despise that you can't stand seeing after every post a member makes, or any other general eyesore, the new Worst Signature award will give that member a hint that perhaps it is time to switch their signature, or just get rid of it completely. The Best Taste award is to honour the member who is the embodiment of true taste. Their opinions are like Gucci (all over their body.) Let’s discuss this – they’re disgusting, you’re delicious. Well, you can’t agree with everyone. Opposite from our previous award, the Worst Taste award is for the one whose opinions leave others questioning. We’re sorry, but we still love you anyway. This award is reserved for our own America’s Sweetheart who always keeps it sugary sweet. Let’s show our appreciation for those who make LanaBoards an enjoyable place to be with the Nicest Member award. No negativity on this site, thank u. But it happens sometimes. This award is for our feisty pitbull who takes no shame in digging their claws in every now and then. Take your Rudest Member award, and then maybe chill out. Old is gold. This award is to honour our member who has continued to come back year after year despite the madness, the one who has become truly embedded within LanaBoards culture. Give a salute as we honour the right person who has stayed with us with the Veteran Member award. (Note: Only accounts who have joined before August 2019 are eligible for this award) Old may be gold, but new can be diamonds! The Best New Member award is for our favourite new face, who thankfully hasn’t been scared away yet. We'd like to think that you will stick around. (Note: Only accounts who have joined after August 2023 are eligible for this award) Everybody loves an underdog. The Underrated Member award is for the member who you feel doesn’t get enough credit around here and deserves their flowers. We won’t let you die an underdog in vain. Though I truly resent this award each year, at this point it has become tradition. As our member graveyard grows slowly but surely each year, the Best Banned Member award is to honour someone who is no longer here with us due to their own naughtiness. Perhaps a legend in their own right, pour out a drink for our fallen sisters with this award. (in b4 it’s all the same person in 5 different variants.) The Most Missed Sis award is for someone who isn't necessarily a banned member, but for one who unfortunately hasn't been around for a while on their own accord. Who do you miss seeing? Who do you want to have their comeback era? Let them know through this award. This one is for the top Lipster, Lanatic, Lanita, Little F*cker, Vintage Kid, or whatever else you want to call us Lana stans. Whether it be because of their huge Lana collection, their knowledge of Lana’s life history, their frequency at live shows, or just their general massive appreciation for Lana, the Biggest Stan award will honour the true ride or die (bitch.) “When will people be over her? I am a Hater.” Although this is a whole forum dedicated to Lana herself, we do have those members who give her a hard time, and that’s why I cross my fingers that Lana doesn’t visit here too often. Although I don’t endorse the hatred, perhaps the Biggest Lana Hater award can give a little hint-hint nudge-nudge to ease off… or just add more fuel to the fire. Although this is a Lana forum, we have plenty of members who are here solely for our entertainment section, which makes up a huge portion of our site. So, who’s your favourite Angel? Your favourite Little Ferrari? Your favourite Diamond? Your favourite Crybaby? Your favourite Swiftie? The Hybrid Fan award is our special thanks to a member who continues to visit, even if Lana isn’t their primary reason for their stay. Everyone is welcome a seat at the table. It’s no doubt that LanaBoards can be a war zone, and this award is for the member who always tries to keep the peace so our world can keep dancing. Whether it be a moderator or an unofficial officer, let’s honour the member who walks into the depth of the fire to put out the flames with the Peace Keeper award. I’ll also be taking note of these nominees as possible future mods, or those mods who deserve an extra pat on the back. Appreciate ya. The Attention Whore award is to give a gentle nudge that this place is in fact LanaBoards, not ____Boards. No disrespect here, just honesty. A new special award - and one that we definitely should have already had! It is only proper that we finally thank those whose humourous posts keep the site's love alive. The Bartender Award - for Funniest Member will honour the member whose posts never fail to make us go "ha ha ha ha!" If LanaBoards had a dating app, who would be your super like? Who has you drooling in the Pictures of You thread? The Be My Daddy Award - for Hottest Member is to honour the hottest of the hot, whether you’re a daddy, mommy, or sexy enby. Whether it be someone who has a meltdown over every single Lana notification or just simply cannot hold themselves back from falling apart all over the boards letting their head spin like a ballerina, the Queen of Disaster Award - for Biggest Drama Queen is for them. A little extra dramatics never hurt anyone. Most of the time. Which member’s posts give you continuous war flashbacks, the same kind of feeling you get whenever you see a picture of a typewritten message posted on IG? The Q.F.T.C Award - for Most Problematic Member is for them, and I hope their own QFTC proclamation awaits. Perhaps this is a member who is no stranger to the mod queue or one that maybe you think deserves to have their unhinged posts moderated before public view. (Disclaimer that the winner of the Mod Queue Award - for Most Annoying Member award will not actually receive mod queue for it... At least not yet, anyway.) LanaBoards houses so much talent within our member base, and the Big Eyes Award - for Best Artist honours our true artists – whether it be for their physical or digital art, we truly have so much talent here. I will also be taking notes for future site theme design help xx We have talent of all kinds here, including those who are masters of audio art! Whose remixes have tricked you into believing a demo of a Lana song leaked on the site that shall not be named? Who do you wish will be Lana’s next core producer? Let them know with the Jack Anti-noff Award - for Best Audio Artist, and perhaps you could rival Mr. Antonoff for production credits on LDR11. As I do have to pay extra to keep the Blog section alive, you bet damn well I’m going to honour the members who actually use it. Perhaps the Self-Loathing Poet Award - for Best Blogger may even inspire others to make their life their poetry, aside from their lovemaking being their legacy (or whatever you like to post in there.) Every year, there is always one certain thread that gives us that lust for life that keeps this site alive. The Thread of the Year award is to honour that thread and all the chaos and wonderfulness that ensued within it. We wouldn’t be without it. As Lana proclaimed at the 2015 Golden Globes Awards, “Well, I love drama!” Whether it be site-related drama or Lana-related drama, there is never a dry day in the Lana Fandom. The Drama of the Year award is for the little extra spice within the fandom that took the cake this year. Note: Please only nominate drama related to Lana or LanaBoards. Do not nominate any off-site drama, even if it involved our members. A new grand award! We have had so many iconic performances this year that it is only right that we honour the best, especially as we gear up for Lana's upcoming sold-out UK & Ireland stadium tour. Whether you loved a particular concert's setlist, outfits, vocals, special guests, or if you simply enjoyed watching either in person or via livestream, the Performance of the Year award will honour the show that will live down in herstory. Eligible performances: "If you become a fashion icon, I'm gonna kill myself!" - Chuck Grant Someone do a wellness check on Chuck as with the dream team (Molly, Etienne, and Anna supremacy) on her side, Lana served us multiple stunning looks this year. From red carpet and special event looks that left us gagged in our Appearances section, to her upgraded concert style, to even random serves on the street, Lana did not let us forget that she will forever be young and beautiful, and this new Look of the Year award will honour the most delectable serve. Lana not only blesses us with her beautiful voice, but also her beautiful self captured in photographs. It's always an exciting day when a new photoshoot is published, with fans perhaps using the opportunity to select that next photo to use as their phone lockscreen or computer wallpaper so they can have a constant reminder of their favourite face. As an individual who is beautiful both inside and out, let's honour our queen's outer beauty with the returning Photoshoot of the Year award. *Please nominate up to 5 of your favourite Lana photoshoots of this year. The top 5 will continue to the next voting round.* Eligible photoshoots: Though a controversial topic at times, leaks are undoubtedly a part of Lana stan culture, and we had quite a bountiful year this year! Which locked-away masterpiece that broke away from its chains wowed you this year? Whether it be a song we had been counting down the days for or a complete surprise, it’s only right that we honour these previously hidden gems with the Leak of the Year award. *Please nominate up to 5 of your favourite Lana songs that were leaked this year. The top 5 will continue to the next voting round.* Eligible Songs: Though our basket of released songs isn't as bountiful as previous years, it has still become tradition to have our Song of the Year award. This award will honour our favourite tune that became part of our soundtrack for this year, making its way to the top of our wraps and replays. *As only 2 new songs and 3 new remixes were released this year, this category will not have a nomination round and the following 5 songs will move straight to the voting round.* Eligible songs: Not only do we stan an icon, but this site itself is iconic in its own right. Whether it’s something Lana herself did or something that happened on LanaBoards, the new Iconic Moment of the Year award will honour that top memory of the year that will forever live down in Lipster history. This award is for our true living legend. Who truly made LanaBoards what it was this year? Let us bestow our honour upon this sacred member through the coveted Lipster of the Year award. We'll never forget you, like the tunnel under Ocean Blvd.
  10. I Want to Sing by Regina Spektor She sang brief acapella snippets of it during some of her shows in 2014 to check her sound x
  11. I’m continuing to add new videos to the OP as they pop up, this one of her and Jeremy is so sweet x
  12. I’ve added some more videos to the OP! She’s so stunning as a bridesmaid
  13. Yesterday, Lana Del Rey attended her friend Valerie Vogt’s wedding in Mérida, Mexico.
  14. I was wondering that too as I also saw those comments from Ben and Ed, but also I think it could mean that maybe Ben and Ed are managing her now. News broke that she split with her previous management about a month ago, so perhaps she's now partnered with them at TaP. It would make sense why Lana followed her recently if she's become part of the crew, and if they are in fact with the same management now, we could possibly anticipate some future projects together such as a collab or even touring together! I would die seeing them both at the same show, I saw both of them at Hangout Fest earlier this year and need a round 2 immediately x
  15. Here’s as much of the full performance of Luckenbach, Texas we have edited together, we’re missing a bit of the end of the first chorus and beginning of the second verse and the first three words of the song lol. This is such a cute moment!! x

    Song vs. Song

    Candy Necklace vs Without You
  17. Last week, Lana Del Rey stopped to meet fans while dining at Fiery Crab Seafood Restaurant in Louisiana.
  18. Coconut and Key Lime Pie... we've literally had knowledge of the song for over a decade, and at least a demo of it has been confirmed to be in people's hands for years... it's time Also, Blue Banisters & Violet intrumentals. As someone who listens to instrumentals frequently while working, this deeply saddens me x
  19. The fact that one of the two women in this picture has publicly mentioned LanaBoards.com… and it’s not Lana skfndksk x
  20. Btw, I added a photo gallery to the OP with 135 HQ photos as well as the transcript for her speech for those will be catching up on what they missed the next day or want a lil replay recap
