yes.. redheads are truly the most oppressed minority.. my heart aches for them

the problem with lana is that she makes herself look self-absorbed, whether or not her concern for the greater question (in this case, the perceived legitimacy of one form of feminine self-expression vs another, and their respective validity in art) is genuine, because she seemingly has to relate everything back to herself
 
this has consistently been the case whenever she's spoken up about social issues, it makes her look tone-deaf even though she isn't necessarily
 
i appreciate her raw honesty, but with the way the world is atm, you have to - not neuter your self-expression, but certainly be more aware of what it could imply to someone who's looking for a reason to put your down and look like the better person for it
 
in this instance, i would have preferred for lanz to not have said a thing, and for her poetry or the upcoming album to have done all the talking for her
 
she could've taken cover behind her art - even though people have a fixed and incredibly reductive idea of who she is, so they would have complained anyway (as they did with BTD and UV and everything else the woman has ever put out)
 
i honestly don't think she cares about the threat of being cancelled though, with everything she feels that she's been through
 
this just perpetuates her narrative that all people ever do is attack her though
 
that's the thing, it's like the snake eating itself

I'm kinda sad for the situation tbh 

As usual, a horrible day to be a Lana stan

her letter is truly a comedy of errors.. the way she worded it,, the time she posted it,, the people she mentioned,, the way she complimented herself,, “not not a feminist”,, the random release date at the end,, it’s all just.. solid gold
 
i couldn’t be this funny if i tried

lana calling herself delicate and glamorous is really funny though ngl
 
i aspire to have this level of self-confidence you go girl

Also I really do think Lana only listed all those women due to them being in the charts right now with new releases, and I’m sure she supports the majority however her entire post reads like her being an upset toddler seeing other women succeed without getting as much flack as she did 8-9 years ago. Maybe move on and seek some therapy if you’re still this bothered almost a decade later.

She’s dumb as a box of rocks for that IG bullshit and extremely tone deaf.

lana really saying she's glamorous like she hasnt been wearing the same jeans and white tee for 5 years

omg i hate to be THAT bitch but.... im not really feeling the way she went about this? like I get what she's trying to say but she could've made the same point without dragging Doja, Nicki, Beyoncé, etc. into the mix. imo it kind of looks bad when she's pointing to all the successes of these black women and making it about her??? especially after dating a goddamn cop this is bad optics tbh...not to mention we cannot take on the hive and the barbs ctfu 
 
at least a new album is confirmed tho 

I hate how she wrote "I'm not not a feminist".
What's so hard about writing "I'm a feminist". Ugh.
 
I even misread it the first time, I read "I'm not a feminist" and was like WOAH. 

I really wish she would move out of California for a while it is stagnating her

what? she isn't allowed to be honest about her relationship with her mother? its her social media - she is allowed to post about whatever and whoever...
 
you're acting like she is shit talking her mom when in fact she wrote a very lovely comforting letter to women everywhere who may not have your typical mother-daughter relationship lol... don't know why this offends you

 
hmmm... theres a difference between writing a letter to women who have complex relationships with their mothers (we exist) and writing a letter stating that you don't like your mother. its not really a cry for help - but rather a comforting letter to those who may be hurting on this day for whatever reason

also wtf people are allowed not to mention thier moms on a mothers day post. people are also allowed not to like their moms. grow up

Jesus Christ.... can she live?? There are how many singers that don't have a charity and you're putting this on her? And already deciding how she should run this charity and assuming it would do her good when you've never actually met her? I just don't understand the point of putting so much unnecessary pressure on her, especially during a pandemic. I am not someone to defend Lana's every move, but this just seems like a little much at this point.

Nothing ground-breaking, but I came to a solid conclusion that "Radio" is 100% about Barrie and here's how I summed it up:
 
1. In the Fader interview, it is stated that Lana and Barrie began dating right after the release of "Video Games"

2.  In this interview, she said this about the song:

3. And the final piece - a barely noticed interview where she says she wrote the song right after "Video Games" started getting airplay.

anyone laughing at Seans most recent instagram post captioned "Feelin Blue #1964Cadillac" 
its like he is trying to get her attention or seem to appear less white Home Depot boring Walmart dad. 
I can't. 

Still looking for that damned outfit.
 

its so cute

This woman modeled for Gucci one year ago, had one of the best critically acclaimed albums of 2019, announced the release date of a whole new project, postponed it, and now she's promoting holistic creams and chakra alignments to her 16 million followers months after wearing a mall dress to the Grammys 

It really sucks how she traded the wild authentic lifestyle of a free minded individual for a basic yoga Botox obsessed Instagram filter white bitch lifestyle ... I know she’s always had that inside of her but goddamn I was rooting for her

She's free to follow whoever she wants and be whoever she wants to be, but that doesn't mean we can't comment on the fact that the matcha-drinking, mommy-blog-following, Churchome-attending Lana seems to be a very different person than who she was a few years ago. It's not that those are inherently bad things (except Churchome lmao), but it's jarring that her interests/personality have made such a 180.
 
And, as for having too much extra time to scrutinize Lana... we're ALL members here, aren't we? 

i dunno if this is unpopular but i don't like Beautiful People with Stevie Nicks or however you spell it

nfr is a bad album she should never work with jack again he brings only the laziness out of her
 
she needs to go back to new york as well..new york has the best dermatologists ever since she went to la her face has been fucked and so has her artistry
 
and I miss gangsta nancy sinatra lost lolita in the hood lana alot that was my favourite phase of hers

Never Let Me Go still gives me that punch to the gut. Not many Lana songs can do that anymore...
I mean we went from Video Games to.... Jim met me down on the boulevard
