I feel like we need a topic to discuss this . . . awkward news development. 
 
Wrap-up from Know Your Meme.
 
Essentially during the 3 September livestream, a comment asked if Lana was a furry. Lana off-handedly said "No, I'm not a furry - you guys are gross". 
 
Thus the ~war~ has begun, with furries basically just talking shit about Lana.
 
A bunch of news outlets have written about it:

Just going to leave this here. 
 
A few days ago, Elton John (72 years old - in the buisness for over 50 years) was performing on stage with pneumonia. Pneu - fucking - monia. 
 
In the middle of the show, medical team jumped on stage, took his blood pressure and helped him. All this happening on stage in front off 100,000 people. 
 
He turned around on his piano and went back to playing. 
 

 
Sadly, Elton lost his voice entirely a few songs later and had to leave the stage. He was sobbing because he wanted to continue the show for his fans but he couldn't. Elton adores his fans.
That very night he went on instagram and left a heartfelt message apologizing to his fans. 
 

 
I'm all for Lana not touring until she is back to the way she use to be on stage back in 2012-2015, but the LEAST she can do is go on twitter or instagram and give a brief statement about the cancellations. This is beyond unprofessional. 
 
If a 72 year old man with pneumonia can do that, then so can she or have someone in her team post it for her on her social media on her behalf.
 
Sweet Jesus it not that fucking hard. 
 

Also... She doesn't really sing? Nor play. Given the way she nowadays just floats around on stage with a loud backing track... Would we have really noticed if she did the shows half-assedly?

NFR! Is like if you asked a machine to make a Lana Del Rey record

Yeah the only part that doesn't add up to me is that Seany is seemingly going about his business, and isn't in California (and she clearly is/was, at least until the day before the tour was supposed to begin).
 
Obviously, there are lots of variables, but if your girlfriend was newly pregnant and/or in rehab then you'd think you'd want to be nearby?
 
Can she, or one of her managers, just fucking say something? We know for a fact people associated with her read this board.

Of course people are bringing the narrative of "she doesn't owe you anything!!1!" into this... people paid hundreds for tickets, flights, hotels, cancelling work, etc. We're owed something. We're owed at least a tweet. That's barely anything at all. It's selfish and childish to call off a whole leg of the tour and not mention it on your own social media. She's been hanging out with friends for the past few weeks, not bedridden and on the verge of death, too sick to post.

I also hope things are okay, but for us to feel sympathy and not hold it against her, we really need to know the excuse sooner rather than later.  
All it would take is for her to copy and paste the statement on her personal channels. After working in customer service, I find not apologising or issuing a statement immediately very rude and disingenuous.

Maybe she's gone from forgetting lyrics to forgetting tour cancellations, and that's why she hasn't said anything.

Wow, absolutely wild. Sadly I don't think there'll be a makeup tour - see Japan's last tour date with Lana.

Disagree. She clearly inspired people in the likes of Lorde, Halsey and Billie Eilish. Not saying she paved the way for every single alternative artist, but it's clear that Born To Die was very influential to some of the most popular acts that "came" after her.

Morning sickness

I really doubt a millionaire in Hollywood or wherever she lives contracted coronavirus lol

YEARS of smoking and its the VAPING that kills Lana Del Rey's voice 

I doubt it’s the corona virus that’s making her cancel the leg. From what I’ve heard, it gives you a fever and is overall pretty annoying to have but shouldn’t be a huge risk for people who aren’t suffering from other diseases simultaneously? Of course you should be careful and take precautions to not get sick, but... Hm, I don’t think the virus is the reason behind the canceled shows. If it would be, she wouldn’t be very safe in the US too, don’t they have corona patients there too? What about California?
Nah, I believe she’s having problems with her voice.

This is SO last minute, it's kinda .... bizarre.
 
I know at least one person who is on their way to Amsterdam and they're so upset. Isn't that show in less than 24 hours?
